fall sports time

A few from the Smith Invitational...

cross country

I shot cross country a few weeks back, there is so much you can do with this sport! It took me back to senior year of high school when I ran with the Bulldogs and subsequently got me hooked on running. So hooked that I just ran and finished the Chicago Marathon on 10-10-10 with minimal training! (Note: not recommended to readers.)

Favorite sports feature I've taken. The two winners of a high school cross country meet outside of St. Paul. (For the Pioneer Press)
