When a severe thunderstorm whipped up on Wednesday, August 11, it didn’t stop alumni from joining the EC cross country team for the annual alumni practice. Driven inside by the storm, the team completed a strength circuit before running the cooldown run in the rain after the storm had passed.
Alumni shared favorite memories and lessons learned from their time on the team. Many of them focused on the experience of learning that they could do hard things and overcome challenges. They shared memories from meets, camp, and team life. The team enjoyed popsicles with the alumni after a sweaty workout.
