My PR was a 18:23 on the regional course my sophomore year and I ran over the summer and such. So I ran a 18:08 on my first meet of the year and I felt like I had something left because I wasn't tired at all after but I was wondering how much I could improve from now till the next time I run this course in October and what do I need to do to beat a few guys who beat me today.

Stay consistent with your training, gradually upping the intensity as you move along in your season. That's about all there is to it, bud. Don't try to do anything drastic to try and better your PR's, your PR's will drop naturally as your progress throughout the season so don't get too worried about hitting PR's, especially in cross country. The only thing you could really change is your approach to your race, especially if its on the same course. Plan out your race - what position you want to be in and when, when you're going to want to make a big move, etc.
So I shouldn't be worried about peeking too early or anything?
