Race Report:
Border Wars - This was our first trip to the Valley Regional Park, and we found a pretty good course. The cool weather and occasional light rain made a nice day for racing. Even with a full 5K and long grass, many of our athletes hit good times and we saw a lot of improvement from many. In the Senior race, the boys placed 6th: Dane was our top finisher in 27th followed by Boz, Gianno (who had one of his best races this year), Coleman, then Gary. The Junior boys took 5th: Evan led the way with a 30th place finish (and our best non-Varsity time of the day); he was followed in a tight pack by Grant, Carson, Kevin, and Parker (only 35 secs separated that scoring crew). The Varsity boys were next and ran a strong race to place 2nd: Bridger led the way with a strong 11th place finish; He was followed by Kyler, Talmage, Porter, and Keaton (whose spread between 2-5 was only 24 secs), then closely by Diego, then Gaige finished up in his first Varsity race. In the Championship race, Trey ran well and placed 13th. AJ was our lone Sophomore boy and had a strong run. Finally our Freshman boys continue to show a lot of growth with a nice 5th place finish: we were led by Liam who took 17th and ran a solid sub 19 time; Bender ran a gusty race and was our 2nd finisher, Ian was next, followed by Ben and Jake to round out our scoring. Tayson also ran a strong race, as well as Trevor, Gavin, Mason, Jeric, and Ferrell. A great thing that many teammates noticed during the race was the way that these Freshman boys responded to the coaching and yells put out by teammates and coaches for surges, competitive moves, and closing gaps. You could tell they really trusted those giving them advice to become better and were brave in their execution of it. On the girls side Amelia was our sole Senior girl representative to start the day. She was followed up by the Junior girls who placed 5th: Brianna was our top placer on the day with her 7th place finish in the race; she was followed by Brecken in 18th, then Laney, Alliana, and Elena. The Varsity girls ran in the Championship race placing 8th: Brooklyn led the was with an 18th place finish; Adri was our 2nd scorer, then Kate, Ma'a (who ran very well), Katie, Emmalee, and Elle. And our final girl racer of the day was Olivia in the Freshman race: she ran very well and has shown a ton of improvement over the year.

PVXC Thought of the Week:
"Belief is not merely an idea the mind possesses. It is an idea that possess the mind."
"Belief is not merely an idea the mind possesses. It is an idea that possess the mind."
-Robert Bolton
Hopefully you are seeing a trend here! Belief, Belief, BELIEF! Do you have something in your life that you have an unshakeable belief in? If so, that idea/thing should drive your every action and attention. All you do should be geared toward that thing. That's what "possess the mind" means. Belief isn't just a casual thought that you'd like to do something. When you truly believe, you commit full-heartedly to it. That's why beliefs are possible, because the change you, they direct you, they give you meaning. Then you go do everything imaginable to accomplish them.
