Abbey Santoro Keller High School Invitational Race Report


Keller High School Invitational Race Report By: Abbey Santoro
Today was our home meet which was super exciting for me because I have never run in our home meet before. The last two years it has been one of the meets our coach has had me take off. We got to the meet at 7:00 AM and passed out bibs to everyone. At 7:40 we started warming up and ran around to warm up for 10 minutes while we explained the course to everyone who didn't preview the course the day before. After that, we headed back to our tent and put on our spikes then we did our usual stretches and strides on the line. During the race, we really focused on staying as close to each other as possible which paid off because we won our race in the varsity 5A/6A division with 20 points! I was also really happy to be able to come away with the win at this meet. I focused on working up the hills on the backside of the course and after the race, I found out I lost two spikes! Our cool down consisted of running around the course cheering for everyone else on our team. Our JV girls also took first place in their race with 23 points and on the boys' side, both the varsity and JV boys took 4th in their races. When the meet was over we all helped clean up and then I headed to an alpaca farm to celebrate national alpaca farm day!
