As mentioned in the lengthy “End of Volleyball?” post Carly decided to pass on playing volleyball this year and instead decided she would join many of her friends on the cross country team. Having never run for sport before this was a first for her, but it’s a fairly laid back sport, everyone makes a team, and we know lots of youth involved in the program as well as the head coach.
With three kiddos playing soccer we ended up having soccer practices and games on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursdays and Saturdays each week. So it was pretty tough for me to show up for many of Carly’s cross country meets. She says she didn’t mind though in fact she claims she prefers to not have anyone watching her.
It was fun to see her run when we could and Katie and Drew loved running around the course trying to catch glimpses of her.
She really enjoyed having so many of her close friends on the team with her. Several of them run on the varsity team, Carly was on JV, but they still had lots of time together.
It will be interesting to see if Carly stays with cross country next year or returns to volleyball. Either way she’ll do awesome. This girl is so athletic and will do great in whatever she puts her mind to.
