The first two days of the camping trip are going great! The runners have been doing a great job of cooking and cleaning up after meals. We started our first run on Monday with a big challenge, Bemidji Ballbusters. This working out is running two minutes hard and then two minutes easy over a one mile loop in the state park that has very large steep hills on it. To qualify as a "ballbuster" you need to complete 12 two minute hard runs, which comes to 48 minutes of running. We had a huge group of boys and girls reach that mark. Camron and Leif (in picture) ran 16 two minute runs to reach the highest total this year.
Monday night we had our traditional campfire with smores and team building talk. The subject was "share a time when a teammate has helped you through a difficult time." It was great to hear how much the runners have helped each other in so many different ways.
Tuesday started out with a morning run, french toast, and then a volleyball tournament. The weather has been great temperatures in the low 70's, perfect for running. Later today we will have a leadership discussion for current captains and ones that want to be a future leaders for the team.
