After an impressive performance at UMASS Dartmouth, Lesley XC looks forward towards the Blazer Invitational at Chicopee State Park. I don't imagine records will be broken this week as we are running a difficult and challenging course. There is one major hill that the women will do once and the men will run twice. This race will be about strength and the strongest runner will win. With that being said, Noa and Fran will have their work cutout for them if they have any thoughts about winning this thing. Johnson and Wales will be Lesley University's toughest opponent since they have gotten the best of us for two straight weeks now. But we will face fellow NECC teams such as Newbury College, Elms College, and Bay Path College. We should get a good sense of these teams after this race.
The underlying significance of this race is that we will be running it again in one month for the NECC Championships. So Lesley looks to take this opportunity to study the course and run well. It will be a rare opportunity to measure the team's improvement over a months time and we are excited to do that.
Hopefully, we will see our supporters out there. Bring your bug spray and wish us luck.
