Last week, the Saint Mary-of-the-Woods cross country team traveled to Branson, Missouri for “camp” in preparation for the upcoming season and school year. … It was such a great week of team building and bonding, running (of course!), meeting new team members and reconnecting with returners, eating delicious food, laughing, talking and getting to know each other, and just genuinely enjoying each other’s company.
I’ve said before that while running is generally about individual work, it’s also very much a team effort. This group of women and men are so encouraging and supportive of each other. I think our time together got everyone excited for the upcoming season.
