Sandpoint Competes at NXR 2014
11/15/2014
Nine Sandpoint runners finished their season by running in the Nike Cross Regional Championships at Eagle Island State Park near Boise. The boys ran in the Varsity Division which had 152 runners, and placed 6th of 15 teams in their race. Jacob Graham led the way with a 16th place finish, followed closely by Sam Powell who placed 18th. Andy McGinnis was also in the top 50 with his 44th place finish. Chris Cordova and Matt Cloud rounded out the scoring 5, and were followed by Mark Kennaly, Reilly Wolfe and Clay Rasmussen. Clair Pierce was the lone girl who ran in the Varsity girls race with 191 other runners. Times for the course were well off PR pace, with over 6 inches of powder snow on the starting field, and packed snow and ice throughout the course.
With this race, the SHSXC 2014 season is officially over. Have a nice active recovery and get your goals in line for next season.

Perhaps the most intriguing, yet at the same time most tragic aspect of distance running is racing strategies and tactics or the lack of them. A slight hesitance, a single step to the inside, a few seconds miscalculation of the right pace of the timing of the final kick, and any other seemingly minor error, may throw away months and years of careful preparation and sacrifice. The race is not always to either the swift or the strong, but to the clever, the skillful, and the constantly wary.
