Why is it that short runs often seem to drag on more than long runs?  This always happens to me.  I woke up this morning actually feeling relieved that I only had to run three miles today.  After all, it’s only three, right?  Somehow, however, the “only three” miles seemed to take centuries longer than even my slowest half-marathon.  I mean, it’s totally mental.  For a long run, I go out there, thinking, “See ya in a couple of hours, world”, feeling prepared as I immerse myself into the run.  

Newly-inducted SCTCCCA Hall of Fame member Jim Crawford talks about the honor and his involvement in the sport.

"I was really enjoying the connection I was making with running when I didn’t have fast-paced music blaring in my ears.  That being said, there are some days when I can only entertain myself so much before driving myself insane—for those days, thank you, Pandora radio."

We are happy to announce that the ES/MS Club Cross Country Challenge State Championship is confirmed for Oct. 20, 2012 at the Clemson University / Sandhills Research Center;  also the site of the South Carolina State High School Cross Country Championships.
