Many members of the cross country team are getting ready for the spring season by gearing up for a different form of running, namely the track team.

Some cross country runners favor the fall sport over track, because it is more interesting than running around a circular course multiple times. Currently many of Mercy’s cross country runners are spending the off season training for the next period of running by attending various indoor races and running at home.

This does not stop the girls from enjoying the change of sport.  “It will be a season of regrowth,” said junior Elyse Baron.
