And that concludes this season.

My last season of high school track and field has come to an end and
so has my career in high school running, in which I managed what I
thought would've been the impossible.

In every race I've been in this year, from Divisionals to Provincials,
from Cross Country to Track and Field, I placed in the top ten, every
time. A pretty decent accomplishment I would think! In all the races
leading up to Provincials, I placed in the top three and at Provincial
races I never placed any worse than seventh. I feel my high school
running came out to be successful and allowed me to be singled out as
a true jock in my school. :P Well, kind of.

Along with doing extrordinarily (or is it extraordinarily?) well for
my first and last year of running in high school, I've also managed to
make my coach cry multiple time, something I never thought I would
ever see or hear about! But I love my coach and I'm sure going to miss
her when I head off to college. I plan on getting her to write me a
reference letter that I can give to the running coaches at my college,
she told me that she would after Cross Country.

It was amazing after Provincials was finally over, I could feel my
body start to relax. I was a little disappointed with one of my runs
because I could've done better if I didn't decide to try a new
tehnique, but whatever. I'm just really hoping my school can get the
Provincial banner, my coach really wants it.

Now I feel useless. High school is finishing, running competitions are
done. I have to get to college to continue competing.. or I think I'll
go crazy. I think I'll start training for Cross Country soon. :)

*sigh*
