Cross Country

Posted: September 22, 2016

This beautiful fall weather has begun and that means the James M Hill Tommie’s Cross Country season is finally here once again!! On September 15th, our small team at the end of last year grew to a total of 15 people competing with us on our team!

Our team is training hard four days a week to prepare to race at regionals, which will be held on October 1st. There are 5 grade 12 students running their last season with the Tommie’s.

 Here’s a few words from a senior girl runner Leanne Jardine; “Being on the team for 4 years I got to see everyone’s improvements including my own, I’ve become a much better runner with the help of Mrs. Anderson and the team cheering me on. I like how our team is like a little family and we all cheer each other on and give it our best whether in the races or just at practice. I will certainly miss running with the team but I’m sure the others will continue training making our team great.”  Good luck to all the runners!
