Tennessee State High School Cross Country Meet

Maddie Polk took Navy Seals training group this summer, which consisted of long trail runs, urban adventure runs, swims, and strength training. She used it as a base to propel her on the the varsity team for Harpeth Hall Cross Country team. In only her second year of cross country she has a PR of 21:35. The STtrainer patrol went and watched her race last Saturday.

Hot conditions precluded fast times, but Maddie was running her best.
