Cross country

The three long miles of cross country are some of the most painful moments to ever experience, but ultimately worth it in the end. The hills and the long stretches of dirt show the true pain and misery of the sport. Each day of training is painful and boring, but once you get to the moment in the race when the finish line is in sight, it is all worth it. Every runner is fighting, putting all their strength into finishing those miles as fast as they can. With all the torture of running through the heat, the hills, and the injury, that feeling when you pass the finish line is unlike anything else. Not only do you have to be in amazing shape, but you also need to have an amazing and powerful mindset. With the right mindset, the chances of succeeding are much higher, and as long as your mindset is strong and you have a very strong willpower, you can do anything. Even with the pain, cross country is a sport like no other and will always be one of the most mentally challenging but the most rewarding sports of all time.
