Last Thursday was the MTAL League Meet for cross country. I beat my previous time by about a minute, and overall our team did pretty well. Even so, Carmel completely demolished all the other teams and ended up winning for varsity.
The Big Sur Half Marathon was today, and instead of volunteering for scouts like I have in the past, I did it with the cross country team. We pioneered the new BYOB (Bring Your Own Bottle) station in which we would fill up runners' bottles with water and Gatorade. We met at the Fishwife restaurant around six and walked to the station, at the turnaround point on the course. We got breakfast burritos with egg, refried beans, and cheese on a spinach tortilla, and then the runners began coming around 7:30. Casey, Addison, Michael and I filled up pitchers to give to the rest of the team who were pouring water into the cups. We also took turns holding signs saying
"BYOB" Ahead. Michelle, Coach Watkins' daughter, also helped out with the filling. About halfway through it started raining quite hard, so we were all soaked upon leaving.
