This past weekend the cross country team traveled to Louisville, KY to compete at the Greater Louisville Classic at E.P. Tom Sawyer State Park. There were over 80 men and women teams at the meet with roughly 1200 men and women college runners. The 80 teams are split into 4 different races. Men Gold Race, Men Blue Race, Women Gold Race and the Women Blue Race. The Gold Races are usually the faster races with big Division I schools like UK, UT, EKU and UofL. The Berea Men's team competed in the Gold Race. Below is a picture of the start of that race and to the right is a picture of me running at roughly the 2 and a half mile mark. The team ended up getting 33 place in the Gold Race but would have finished 5 in the Blue race. Everyone on the team ran a personal best except for a couple of people. I ended up running a 26:37 which is a PR (personal record) by 45 seconds.
