Eureka!

I just realized why I decided to join XC:
Friend N.C.: "Little Ms. Nerd is doing CROSS COUNTRY?????!!"
Me: "OH, yes. And she is DREADING it. I've been running over the summer in an attempt to suck less at track, and I decided that as long as I'm going to torture myself, I might as well do it effectively and join the XC team. When I die, you can have all of my camp memorabilia =)"
