The practice prior to Regionals is called The Dress Up Run in which the team goes parading downtown in old prom dresses, wedding gowns and suits and ties as a group. We always get quite a few head turns and double takes. Some of the regulars in town always say "we were wondering when the cross country team was going to do their crazy run downtown!" We usually sprint excitedly to the elementary playground to play on it for a little while (and kind of scare the little kids; a few guys always opt for the dresses to experience a freer run), but the school is currently being rebuilt on the site. So instead, we ran through the school and got flashed by a hyper little boy who chased us. Times certainly have changed. We also always do a lap of honor around the UMF fitness center track and when we got back outside, it was snowing. No dryland training during ski season this year??
