Cross-Country Season is Underway!

It's that time of year again! Students are in school, cross-country runners are racing, and the leaves are beginning to fall!

At the starting line!

This past week The Community School Cross-Country Running Team participated in the first race of the season! The Community School and the Wood River High school organized a fantastic meet, right here in Ketchum. We were blessed with a beautiful sunny day.

The team this year consists of 10 athletes: 6 girls and 4 boys. Unfortunately we had a few sick kids the day of the meet and were only able to race 6 athletes. Despite the few numbers, we went into the race with open minds and decided that this race would help determine where we should set our goals for the rest of the season. The runners did great...but we certainly have some training to do:)

I am excited to help with another season of cross-country running! We ended on a great note last year, qualifying both the boys and girls team to state for the first time in school history! We have high standards to meet this year, but with some hard work we can achieve it!
