State Meet and Housekeeping

Okay...too many days have gone by and I apologize to Chad for that.  This post should have happened several days ago!
Warmest congratulations to Chad Couser for his performance at the State Meet this past Saturday!  It is a tough position to run at State without any teammates beside you...Chad did an awesome job and finished at 16:44.8.  This was 82nd out of a field of 176 runners...at a pace of 5:24...this is a fantastic finish to the season!  IM-PRESS-IVE!
Congrats also the the Century team who finished 9th and to Emma Christensen (15th!) and Aly Welch from Century (44th).  An exciting opportunity for all of the Rochester runners!

An interesting bit that I found while I was looking for State Meet results:  http://www.startribune.com/local/281415471.html.  This article is what we love about Cross Country and the kids that run it.  Although the title starts out "2 runners disqualified," look how it ends:  "for helping rival finish the race."  Please note that the girls KNEW that they would be disqualified...
These are not unusual Cross Country stories.  I love this sport.

Housekeeping:  Two awesome water bottles left at the Spartan 5K on Saturday.  One is a Camelback and the other is a Contigo.  Please let me know if you think they are yours!
