Welcome to the 2024 XC
Hi Trailblazer families!
Welcome new families and teammates. Let me preface this with THIS IS A LOT OF INFO! But we want to communicate as best as possible for everyone. Those that have been a part of the program(s) for awhile now get the flow of things pretty well and we are trying to maintain consistency. XC season is the most "challenging" in terms of how we take on all Williston-Gregory and St. Mark kids to coach and following the XC season, many remain with us as Without Limits Trailblazers throughout the year. For the XC season, all of the runners are able to represent their respective schools either through the public school race program or the private/homeschool program.
Following our short but VERY busy and INCREDIBLE XC season, we continue to train year round as a Without Limits Youth Trailblazer Team, competing in 5ks, trail races, relays, team socials, volunteer opportunities, and tons of fun team oriented events all year long.
TEAM RECORDS
Coach Pierce keeps record of most time trials that we train for, PRs in 5k throughout the year that the team does together, and XC meet results. This started in 2017. If an * is next to a name, that is a WOL Trailblazer, all others are Williston-Gregory XC runners. We reiterate that we are all Trailblazers, working together, but for XC season, we represent our respective schools. Always getting better together because we believe in community and the bond of dedication and hard work together! Times and records will be updated this season and continuing through the year for races that we keep specific times for. One example of a race we wouldn’t record an official record time for is a 5k course that was not truly at least 3.1 miles in length.
