at my school in middle school you could do winter track. and it wasn't competitive, there were no races. so I did running for winter track before I ever competed. we didn't really train but in 8th grade winter track i was trying to break 6 lol. but if I wrote that I ran 4:57 last year, when I was a freshman, that's definitely true.
