Hi, i have an issue with track and xcc. I run indoor track and i want to do xcc. Ive bee running since 8th grade and im now i my junior year of hs. When i first started track i got shin splints really bad. So my parents thought that track wasnt right for me and that i was a complete embarassment. It hurt me so bad because on my first track meet ever. I ran a 800m race and got 5th place out of over 30 people. To me that was pretty darn good. Ever since that my parents have been trying to get me to quit for the longest time. My sophomore year i signed up and i started going to practice for indoor track. My parents didnt come to any meets. All they did was drop to practice and pick up. Im fine with that but not coming to my meets really bothered me. Mainly because they talked so much about how i wont be successful at this and stuff but didnt show up to see if i could actually do it. I have a really big goal. May sound crazy but i want to try and qualify in the olympics. I have a strong feeling about this. But im not sure if ill be able to because my parents dont want me running track. I need to practice as much as i can and they dont believe in me like i believe in myself. They dont want me running track. They wont support it. I get good grades i do what im supposed to do. I just dont know why. I have 2 other siblings younger than i who are good at their sports and they just care about them and put all the effort into what they are doing. Please help i dont know what to do.
