~:[CH3 - Day 256]:~ Into the Night
It's races like these that can make cross country memorable. We left at 2pm and the weather was awful. Sadly, it would get worse as we drove from Cerritos to Rosemead. It was hot, but the team managed and did a great job working to setup the best camp at the meet. We got there early so they could relax and prepare and it must have helped despite the warmer temperatures. It cooled down as it went into the night, however, that did not stop some of my youngest athletes from performing well while it was still warm. The team set 64 season PRs on the day, most of which were also career PRs and that's even after we converted the times since we measured the course under three miles. At the end of the night, I was exhausted, as I ran back and forth during the race, but after seeing the smiles on the faces of the athletes, it was all worth it. Even the results back that up.
