Spanish Fork XC Battles the Altitude of Soldier Hollow

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

Spanish Fork High School Cross Country team traveled up to Soldier Hollow September 10th to run an amazing race on the Olympic cross country ski path. After some interviews, the team seemed excited but slightly nervous. The elevation was a major factor that could play against them. The course was also unfamiliar to some of the team which could cause some confusion as well. All in all the team did quite well.
Tanner Runolfson had these memories of running the race in years past, "All of the hills and switch backs were butt kickers."  After the race it seemed Tanner's attitude changed a bit. He remarked, "It was a good race, as a team we passed a lot of people and we all finished strong." Throughout the race the team did an amazing job representing Spanish Fork High School, proving they're all "Rock Solid" and able to commit and achieve what they push for no matter the elevation. Good job Spanish Fork Cross Country team!
