Question

im in the 9th grade and the cross country coach wants me to join..im not that fast but she says i could do well..i only kinda wanna do it to stay in shape for basketball....should i join the team

Answer 1

Yes, join the team. You may not be fast now, but after you train for a while you will get better. This will help give you a edge in basketball because you will have more endurance and you won't get tired as easily as the others. Good Luck! I am sure you will do great!

Answer 2

maybe

Answer 3

you never know until you try

however i don't think you'll like the summer training that comes before the cross country season

Answer 4

Yes. I garentee it will make you feel so in shape, and so alive. It is not something you should go without doing in your life. Good Luck : )

Answer 5

You should join it. I know alot of people who were like... hmmm.... cross country? and joined it and LOVED it. You don't necessarily have to be fast, but you might be surprised and find out it's more important to you than basketball
