The XC team keeps on growing, and shrinking, and growing, and shrinking... I mean, it was five guys plus me today, but yesterday it was like seven guys and me. According to Coach, there should be more coming soon, but they haven't shown up yet. We've got some people who show up every time though.
I may be going to a private school, but they're still some preeeeeetty shady characters roaming some of the streets while we run. Coach could keep us on the little around-the-ditch loop he usually puts us through, but we can't do that every day. So we run the streets, dodging the shadier peoples. I'd be more nervous if I didn't always have one of the XC team guys right behind me, but I always do. So I'm safe. And I mean, we're cross country runners! We run miles and miles! We are stronger than anyone on those streets! Or we are as a team, anyway. I mean, if the guys keep tabs on my asthma, they're going to keep tabs on my safety, too.
That's just another reason why they're so awesome.
Less than a week 'till school starts.
