10/7 South Jersey Open Results

[Nick]

Here are the results from this morning’s South Jersey Open race at Dream Park. It was our first real opportunity to race a 5K in very good weather conditions and on a flat course.  Although we did not have a complete varsity team, our main goal was to run not only a smart race but to run it with an emphasis on mental toughness as well. Despite still being far away from our peak performances of the season and without a complete team, we proved dominant in our race! We had runners in a tight grouping at the front which resulted in a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place finish! Along with those medals earned, we also had huge PRs and some very important season bests! Even though we still have a long way to go for our ultimate goal, today proved that we are well on course to do some amazing and special things this year! Well done to all!
