WBHS cross country back in action this Saturday

“We will see some quality teams,” Lofton said. “My understanding is that it is a flat course. I hope to boost our runners’ confidence with some good times. At the same time, we want them to stay grounded and to realize they have to keep working each time out.”

The WBHS cross country runners were on fall break in recent days but practice continued. The team had an early morning workout Friday at the Winder YMCA and also held morning practices Monday and Tuesday.

“Despite being on fall break, we can’t take five days off from running,” Lofton said.

The Bulldoggs and Lady Doggs were off Saturday. “We are now in our third stage of training,” Lofton said. “This is the hardest part. We have a tough two weeks of practice coming up.”
