BFHS Cross Country "Stuff" 

Be prepared for all sorts of weather conditions.  Here's a link to the NOAA weather site: http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Bonners+Ferry&state=ID&site=OTX&textField1=48.6914&textField2=-116.315&e=0

Here's a quotation to think about:

"If one can stick to the training throughout the many long years, then will power is no longer a problem. It's raining? That doesn't matter. I am tired? That's besides the point. It's simply that I just have to." - Emil Zatopek

Just who was Emil Zatopek?  Look him up.  His is a motivational story.
