The girls are only a little bit better. They come sporadically to practice but we still have five, enough for a team. They still can't run 2 miles without stopping to walk and they have their first race (3.1 miles) tomorrow. We are racing an all-girls school from N-City and it should be a massacre. I'm more worried about whether they will show up tomorrow than how they will do.
But the good news is that we had our X-C meeting at E-City school today. All ten girls showed up at the meeting. I thought I was dreaming. I gave them a 15 minute talk on what Cross Country really was about and to see if they still wanted to do it. Seven are still on board and three are thinking it over. Keeping fingers crossed for the 2011 E-City Harriers.
