Thanks Giving Traditions

My thanks giving traditions are the "normal traditions". My family gets together at my grandparents house, but  unlike most families, our family is extremely big. On my mother's side i have approximately 20+ cousins. So my thanks giving is getting together out in ole Whites ville. Before we eat  all the youngin go outside and play a little football. During the meal we all sit , where ever we can find a seat, and watch football. So basically my thanksgiving is spent watching football, eating good food and just being with the people i care about. Also the day before i go to my girlfriends grandparents house and participate in nearly the same activities. 

Season Coming to an Ending.

This cross country season is drawing to an end. It seems like we were just getting started and now we have two weeks left. This season has been a very great season. We are city country champions for the second year in a row and are favorites for both region and state. We have grown as individuals and as a team. We went from being ranked 8th in state to a solid 4th. I have grown as runner, i went from last year running from 20 flat to running a pr( personal record) of 18:35. Be ready for next year because everyone will be very good and we will have an amazing group of runners.
