The x-country team is brand spanking new at Covenant Life School this year. A new team, a new course, and a new coach … it’s all new to rookies Kendall and Corinne. The course is tough, the training is hard, the weather has been hot … but they have persevered! 
“Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.” 1Corinthians 9:24-27
Matt giving it his all to win the guys race - well done!
