While a little dry and dusty, the Kit Carson invitational went well overall.  Times do not compare to other races as the boys race is longer than 3 miles (3.06), and the girls race is shorter than 3 miles (2.76). 
Meet Results: Overall the boys Varsity took 3rd, Boys F/S took 1st, Boys JV took 3rd.  Girls Varsity took 2nd, and Girls JV took 3rd (This meet combines f/s and JV into one race).  It was another good training race as we prepare mentally and physically for our next important meet, the second league meet.
Athlete of the meet: Adriana Vanegas ran a good race placing 14th in her race, and Jonah Bonner ran the second fastest time for our team (17:27).

Week Preview:
This is an important meet for our Warriors, as we get positioned for our league finals.  The 2nd league meet is held at Mason Park (by UNI).   Busses leave at 1:15 pm on Thursday.   Parents, there is  $3 parking to get into the park.  Mason Park is a nice flat course, and is a very fast course.  Make sure you are preparing correctly (eating correctly, getting enough sleep etc)!
