Polk County Runners Get Down To Business Ean Ormsby Oct 21, 2013

On Saturday October 19, 2013, Polk County cross country began several new traditions. The first was running in Lakeland at Holloway Park, a course known by many as one of the toughest ones in the county. Holloway Park would end up being the perfect venue for Saturday’s meet as Polk County would also have their first ever middle school 3K championship. The course for the 5K and the 3K were no different than any of the other meets that were held at the park earlier that year. 

Avon Park Meet Marks Start Of Season For Some Runners Ean Ormsby Oct 01, 2013

A hot Monday afternoon greeted seven local schools at the Avon Park Cross Country Invitational. The race conditions were fair considering the rainy weather the area had been experiencing the week before hand. The course was just the same including a predominantly road section that would carry the runners out and back for pretty much the entire race. Times were good and emotions were high as local teams raced for the first time of the 2013 cross country season.
