Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day Shout Out to our own Will Labus. Will has CP, yet he is one of the hardest working and toughest guys on our team. Now a Junior, Will ran 31:45 for 5K as a freshman. He trains consistently at 25-30 miles per week and has dropped that to 23:23.

Crown Point Alum Geno Christofanelli made his college debut in the 3K yesterday for @PurdueTrackXC . Incredible time of 8:34.77. Geno hadn’t raced since Foot Locker Regionals in 2019. Great things happen when you stay consistently focused on your training. Best is yet to come!

Congrats to @LucasGuerra03 who set a new course & regional record (15:30.2) at Lemon Lake. The course record was previously set by Tom Feder of Crown Point 38 years ago, in 1982. The majority (43%) of the current course is uphill. Very impressive!

Another Saturday long run in the books. This week from Crown Point to Griffith. -7 degree temps today. Optional to show up, yet the vast majority demonstrated that showing up is the foundation of success. The donuts and hot chocolate were an earned surprise when they finished.
