Varsity Cross Country Achieves Silver in Portland

By Mary Neill, Rachel Milau and Juju Woolfenden, Team Captains

Two weeks ago, the cross-country team had an unforgettable trip to Portland, Oregon. The race was a challenging 5-kilometre course, and the Wolves proudly earned 2nd place in the girls’ division, with many runners achieving personal bests and showing incredible effort and teamwork. One highlight of the trip included a visit to Nike World Headquarters, where the team explored the campus and completed a workout on the iconic track and trails alongside world renowned athletes. It was an inspiring and memorable experience that brought the team even closer together.
