Running for Release

by Brayden Bruner

When most people think of running, they initially think, “No way.” Or some people run purely as a form of exercise. When it comes to our cross country runners here though, they do it out of passion for running. Some run only because they enjoy it, while others run for the stress relief. With many of our runners being seniors this year, the class loads are strenuous and all of the senior activities can add stress as well: applying to colleges, performing well, figuring out life, etc. Cross country gives them a way to let that stress out through something they genuinely love while surrounded by people of the same mindset.
