[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I ran XC and track in High School! It was nice because I was fast enough to be varsity but not super fast so there was not a super high level of pressure. It tends to be very supportive and social, although female distance runners do have a risk of overuse injuries so look out for that. The best thing is, it really is a lifetime sport if you like it- I still train for and run longer races as a hobby just for personal enjoyment, and you can find a running club or running buddies no matter where you live. [/quote] I am the PP- I also wanted to add that I think XC/Track is a great option for a kid who wants to participate in a sport in HS but has not been in a specific sport for years and years prior (like soccer kids who have been playing since they could walk!) I had taken years of ballet but ultimately decided it was not for me and was generally active/in good cardiovascular shape and was able to join XC/Track and do well if you work at it. [/quote]
