Funny Quotes About Cross Country
Cross Country might as well be considered an extreme sport. I know that I could have never been able to do it, even when I was younger and "in shape." Honestly, you guys who do run it have to be insane. You just have to! No sane person would put their body through that much torture. Running might be fun, but not that far! What do you even think about for that long? Breathing?
Even though I think you guys are insane, I have tremendous respect for what you do. With that being said, here are some funny quotes about cross country running.
When you put yourself on the line in a race and expose yourself to the unknown, you learn things about yourself that are very exciting.
