How popular is Track and Cross Country in your high school?
149122
At my high school, track and cross country are not very popular. For track, though, people always become interested when regionals and states come around. Cross country is a ver quiet sport that usually goes by very silently unless somebody really well known does very well in a meet.

It is a very good high school.  Just check out their web page to get a better feel for the school.

Is it highschool or college.  I was highschool class president once, I would try to appeal to as diverse a group as possible.  Your posters need to grab attention, to make up for lack of creativity, get as many posters, stickers, or whatever out there and get the most exposure.  People are going to vote for their friends in highschool, and I found that most of the academians that were running only had a small group of friends that were all as lame as they were.  I hung out with the stoners, the athletes, the cool kids, and was in all the smart kids classes, that kind of exposure clinched it.

our cross country team this year posted times of around 20 minutes.  The top 5 on our team usually got around 16:30.  But thats high school athletes.  Start aiming for 20 or so and as you run more, work your way down.  Also for long-term energy.. eat all types of pasta.

I actually started out watching and attending NHRA events my sophomore year in HS. I had a boyfriend and a best friend who race, and a matter of fact, they still do. I go a few times a year---Super Chevy, Night Under Fire, Spring Nationals. Then I got into NASCAR and Sprints. I love it all!!!

Wolverines is one of the most popular team names.  There are hundreds if not thousands of high school in the US with that team name.

yes, well it is in some parts. People love running but hate track because it is boring (I run track, I must agree)...so they like cross country b/c its a better view then a rubberized track and going in circles. :)

I'm just finishing up my freshman year in high school. Don't worry! You're going to be fine. Get to know your teachers and the building. Ask friends who are upperclassmen what it's like. Joining clubs or doing sports are an awesome ways to meet people. And the best way to get noticed is to just be yourself.

Happens all the time.  One of my friends was quite nerdish in high school, but when I visited her in college, she was quite the popular girl.  Plus in college it's cool to be popular AND smart.\n\nAlso vice versa.  Where Mr. High School Popular goes to college and become Mr. Nobody.

I would love to try it because high jump seems fun, but my coach kind of makes me do the distance events. But Track and field is still awesome.

Oklahoma is a big place.  If you're in OKC/Norman, Tulsa, or Stillwater, I'd think such events wouldn't be hard to find.  Otherwise, yeah, I can see where it'd be more of a challenge.\n\nI'd Google to see if you have a local running club you can use as a resource, or failing that try calling the cross country coach at your local high school and see if they have advice - the worst thing they'll do is hang up on you, ha ha...

100m, 200m, long jump, and triple jump.  Well, I did those back in High School anyway.
