Donavan White '12 -- DO YOU FEEL IT REDPACK! The one race we’ve been training for all year as finally arrived. It is now up to us to take full advantage of it and run our way into the national meet. For all of you who missed this week Chapel talk, you missed out. I am so pumped up for this weekend and am ready to go. I know we will miss the game, but I like to consider us still fortunate. We are fortunate because not only do we get to also participate in some DePauw butt kicking when we race them this weekend, but we also get a shot to show teams like Denison and Hope that we are better than what we were earlier in the year. The time for talk has ceased a long time ago. Now, it is a time to really get our minds right. Be ready for any and every weather condition on Saturday. Be ready for a muddy, dry, fast, slow, hilly or flat course. All of the outside factors don’t really matter at this point. All that really matters is us showing up ready to compete and beat some butt. We can’t just have the want to go to Nationals, everyone on a team across the nation can have the want. But what we need to have is that compelling desire or nagging itch that continues to drive us forward and won’t be satisfied until we are on that starting line the week after Saturday. REDPACK, Saturday is it for us. WE EITHER BACKUP AND PROVE ALL OF THE THINGS WE’VE SAID TO EACH OTHER OR WE GO HOME WONDERING WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN.
