Hey guys, well yesterday I made a decsion that will prob. end my life, and that is to Run cross country next semester at my univ. I run everyother day, about 2-3 miles depending on how hilly the area is. So i talked to the XC coach yesterday, and she said that i would be a good fit, cuz i am tall, 6'4, lean, 190lbs, and i have some running exp. Well then she tells me that races in college are 5 miles, where as in Highschool they are 5ks or 3.1 miles. I was like damn, cuz in pratices she said they have run up to 10 miles. Maybe its just me, but 10 miles is a really long run.

Just got a email from her, giving me a 5 week program to get me ready for when the real program starts which is in June, thats when u run like 150 miles in 3 weeks, its going to be insane, never have I run this much

Well at least i wil be able to say i tried, hehe, ok well wish me luck, program starts next monday the 28th.

if u have any exp with running please let me know, i can use all the knowledge i can get.
also if u know of any good running shoes sites, i havne;t tried google yet, but i am just about too

Just like with any other sport, if you already have the aptitude for it, it is all a matter of applying yourself. You should be fine.

Good luck to ya!
 
good luck. i ran XC all through high school, then went to college and basically did NOTHING for 4 years.

i've been out almost 2 years now and i'm back in the shape i was in high school finally.....gotta give you props for staying fit in college!
 
thanx guys, yeah i am going to try really hard at this, cuz i know not many people can say that they have run XC in college, i also play tennis in the spring, so now i can also have XC in the fall, keeping me in shape, and then in tennis i will PWN everyone, not like i don;t already hehe

I've ran a lot, but I have no tips. It's not like cross country or anything, just two miles here and there to keep fit. Good thing you got a training program from her!!

Would you PM me the routine she sent? I've been getting into running, and would like to be able to do more than just a 5k...
