One-Rep MAX

Benswic runners enters today's meet with the mindset of getting faster and placing within the top 15 –– to receive medals!

Though today’s cross country meet was cold and wet we had plenty of PR’s (personal records) and we couldn’t have been more happier in each of our runners.

The start of the day was the Novice 1mile. Xavier Weir and Lillian McConnell ran extremely well. Xavier ran a time of 10:30.2 and Lillian 10:39.8 (PR).

Awaiting next was the 9-10 boys & girls, soon after 11-12 girls. We could tell they were ready to go when they were on the line. It was told by coach, “All week of practice we’ve trained to tackle that “Cemetery Hill” and have nothing left towards the finish.” You could tell on each of their faces, that their stomachs was in pain, lungs on fire and they just wanted to finish. This was a gutsy run from each.
