College National Cross Country Championship

Last weekend, all the Universities of Madrid travelled 6 or 7 hours up to "La Coruña". A nice jog  after the trip next to the beach made our legs feel fresh for the big day. I was very excited, it was my first College National Championship :)

The course was 6,140 meters long. I finished in 22nd place within a time of 23'52''. It is certainly one of my best performances of this season :)

Regionals

So, it came, regionals. Many months of hard work for today. The temperature was nice, but it was very very windy. M and A also ran, and J and D came to cheer for us (aren't they just so sweet?).

The level was amazing, I had never ran in such a competitive Championship in many years. I enjoyed myself (except for the wind and the fact that our uniforms make it difficult for me to breathe). You can probably see that on my pic.

M amazes me more each day, she has been very busy with exams and hasn't worked out so much but did  great. A was also incredible. How can someone ran sooooo fast? One can't even see her pass by.
We were second by teams :) But we sure missed C!!!
