Run to Talk, Talk to Run


Every time I seem to have a problem, or to face things that are difficult I blog. For some reason this is now becoming a daily rotuine. But this time I don't have a problem and I'm not questioning anything. When I joined Granada's cross country team, I needed that support system to be great instead of just okay. Before I joined I was at a rough spot in my life. If you read of my other blogs you would know why:DRAMA. All of a sudden I was forced into a team, not just a great group of runners, but a great group of people. Here at Granada XC I was apart of a team. While I was on my daliy rn for the day, thoughts came pounding into my head of why oyher people joined this team. As I was thinking more than I should o been, I realized what this team did for others. Some runners love the feeling of beating high-end schools throughout the bay area. Others have a mindset, a goal, a place where they need to get to during a race. Most people have never thought of cross country as a serious sport, but they had no idea of how hard everybody works to do great and be great. What makes Granada so different have the other schools is that we are all friends, theres no drama, no problems, and no people who wanted me dead or hit by a bus. Everybody was so nice, funny, and outgoing. Everybody has there own reasons for loving this sport. Now I was wondering why I loved it? Maybe it was verthing I needed to land on my feet. Maybe I loved the atmosphere of running, maybe it was pure adredaline pricing through my veins. I think it was all of the above and more reasons. I have meant some of the nicest people. Cross Country is a sport of mental strenght, drive, and most importantly passion.
