What has your summer training consisted of? How much mileage are you putting in?
My training this summer training has been made up of 2 hard sessions per week (normally a long run and tempo work), hill work, a moderate run, and easy running everywhere else. I've been putting in about 70 miles per week.
What are your goals for the upcoming season?
I'd like to win a state title with my team, move up on my school's all-time list, and place top 3 individually at states.

Mile repeats on the track are a huge confidence boost.
What did you learn from the last xc season that will help you improve in 2020?
Last season I really learned a lot about how to work out properly.
How is your team looking for the fall?
Bangor Cross Country is looking better than ever. We're returning all of our guys from last year's runner up team, and we've picked up a couple of guys who could run some monster races.
How do you stay motivated when you don't want to run?
I'd say it's important to get into the habit of running. Treat it as something that isn't associated with motivation, like eating. Also, forcing myself through at least 10 minutes normally gets me going
