Cross Country Invitational!

I decided on a whim to enter a cross country race here at Mills. It's open to everyone. So on Monday I did a training run around the campus and over parts of the course. There's one hill with switchbacks, and some trail running, and some running up and down the street and here and there. I've been running at Mills for a couple of years now and I don't think there's anywhere on campus I haven't been, which is why I thought it would be fun to run the race. I did some mental calculating and figured that it's been about 15 years since I ran my last cross country race as a high-schooler. I was actually a decent runner back then. I expect to be at the back of the pack in this race. I don't care. At least it's good to know that 15 years later I'm still doing it. Plus, it's only 3 miles.
