cell company I feel is the best ever, Sprint. My reason for disliking them is because they claim they can reach more areas, take better pictures, have game streaming. Everyone says that Verizon, T-Mobile, Cricket and AT&T are better than Sprint. I think Sprint is better because they have better graphics, better compatibility, better applications and better accessories. Most companies say that they have 4g network and that they have the fastest internet. Sprint may not have the fastest internet but

Track & Field Track and Field looks like a very simple, easy, boring sport to most people but it’s really not. Some people don’t want to join track because “they don’t like running”, what some people don’t think about is the field part of Track and Field. There are many different options when it comes to track and field. Track and field is a very enjoyable sport to most of the members. It just like every other sport out there.

Get the baton to Ashlee," is what was going through my mind as I ran the

excited and exhilarated to compete in sectionals, I couldn 't wait to tell my family. I always have liked the competitive drive every time before I would run a race. I always enjoyed the feeling of the wind against my face, and the power it took to sprint to the finish line. My knees started shaking, and the sharp pain in my stomach began to get worse. How would I get rid of the nervousness before and during the experience of competing in sectionals? How would I know if I’m completely prepared to

For me, cross country isn’t just a sport to add to your extra curricular activities, nor is it an “easy” sport to join just because you want to be considered an athlete. Cross country is way more than that. It is a lifestyle. It is waking up every morning at 5 a.m., running countless miles until you can’t feel your legs anymore, having no days off, and having to sacrifice plans with your best friends because you have practices and races every weekend. I saw dedication every time I saw my sister grit

“Life’s battles don't always go to the strongest or fastest man, but sooner or later the man who wins is the fellow who thinks he can.” Running is a mental sport. Running tests your bodies’ endurance and capability to push through the pain. Running can be an addicting sport because of the endorphins and accomplishment you feel when you run a new personal best. Running can also be a huge stress relief; just getting out and the trail and thinking of everything and nothing. Cross country is long distance

Running: When some people look at this word, they want to barf by simply thinking about how awful it sounds. Other people take a glance at this word and butterflies form in their stomachs. They imagine the feeling of the adrenaline rush through their veins as they start a race, or the satisfaction after a hard, yet successful, run. Can you guess which type of person I am?

fans have wondered if NASCAR should give him a pass for the other half of the Chase for The Sprint Cup in which contingency rules state he must be in 30th place or higher in the points standings to qualify for the chase.
