I am a 7th grade boy and I started running regularly this summer. My dad used to run in HS and he has been "coaching" me since I started. I only ran 5k's so far but I managed to get a 17:58. When my middle school ran the mile(we run the mile instead of the pacer idk why though) I ran a 5:16. I was approached by the High school track coach and was asked if I wanted to compete on their track and cross country team. I was wondering what I should say and what goals I should set for myself if I do decide to join. Thanks guys
