I hate my cross country team

You’re a tool, no wonder why you have quitters on your team. You should dnf as a coach.

Who are you to tell me how to coach? I’ll have you know I’ve been running a successful cross country program for over 15 years. I’ve never seen such a pathetic runner stop after being spiked and tripped. Absolutely atrocious scene.

How bout you find a new hobby, CoachPhilthy

10/10 troll job.

1. There isn’t any “big invite” similar to Great American this Saturday. (NCRunnersElite nowhere close to a national level meet like GA)

2. All of the schools in Rutherford County suck at XC. Their all-county team would probably place 7th in my 2A conference. Sheebau’s “threat” of saying “good luck winning the meet without me” is worthless, as they would get waxed anyway.

3. No teams from Rutherford County are registered for NCRunnersElite, the only thing even close to a “big invite similar to Great American”

Just forget it there is always another race. Life is not always fair especially in the way people view you.

You had your reasons to drop out let them think what they want it'll soon be forgotten.

Wow gotta give you some respect for being the only sensible person on this thread. Tothe OP: just forget about it and keep running and training hard.

After the race, my whole team threw massive shade at me for walking off the course on this shitty tri-meet that doesn’t count for anything, even my coaches were mocking me asking if I was going to need urgent care for a cut, which really made me angry. I’m aware I could and should have finished the course, but I wasn’t sure of how bad the cut was and knew that this didn’t count for anything and I was already 45-60 seconds behind everyone. What do you think I should have done? (We also have a relatively large important invite this Saturday, which I also took into consideration before walking off)

You did the right thing. Your coaches and team mates are immature idiots.

Have fun winning without your top runner and having our second runner make up that 50 second gap ??

Big considering my school. We’re mostly off an off the grid kind of school, which is why when we go to relatively large meets its a pretty big deal, guess I overexaggerated the size of it?

Every meet is an opportunity to improve and cross country is about your team. You need to realize that if you want to be a key benefactor to your team, you need to take every race serious and to be selfless. That means putting aside your pains(bloody ankle) and excuses, for your team. The fact that you need personal reward or an important meet to give your full effort proves that you are selfish. If you drop out during an “unimportant race” how do you know you are not going to be strong enough when you encounter an actual tough situation in an “important race.”

If this is the actual coach, I commend you CoachPhil. Cross country needs more coaches like you. Respect.

Because I have, this isn't my first time being spiked. But usually, I get spiked mid-race when adrenaline pumping so I don't notice it.

Alright, we're reeling this one in. The IP addresses on both of your posts are the exact same. Good try though.

Don't troll me like this, man.

I didn't bring up those cringey stories for a troll, did I? I dug in deep for those memories.

There is nothing you can do at this point but to move forward and learn from your past mistakes. But it sounds like you are too stubborn to see yourself as the problem so I wish you good luck.

try doing what we used to do in High school 30 years ago-talk to your coach in person and work things out if you have a difference of opinion rather than go online-it used to work then--it should still work now--take up his offer of meeting him in room 110 after class-good luck with the rest of your season...

WRONG! It's hard to imagine that any adult, presuming you're an adult, can be as stupid as you are.

The individual always comes FIRST, not the team, because the team consists of every INDIVIDUAL!

If this student ran through the injury, it's possible that s/he could suffer a permanent disability, or worse, due to your negligence.

You should always, ALWAYS, put the individual first. Otherwise, your team isn't worth crap.

I'm afraid to meet him alone. Another girl said he started touching her all over when he got her to meet him alone. She quite running, and then her family moved out of state. Should I tell my parents what he's doing?

Hopefully you are a troll, but I'm getting these vibes nonetheless

Have a good race Saturday and it'll all be water under the bridge.

Thank you, my whole team especially my coaches keep mocking me for walking off the course; so it’s nice to see someone who agrees with my decision.

I would like to mock you for the original incident and being so insecure that you needed to come on the internet to discuss the original incident.

Grow some heuvos and a spine. That will eliminate the mocking.

I’m actually a kid lol. But I realize my flawed logic at the time I wrote that and I guess I related the situation too much to how my team and I run through minor pains (stomach cramps, soreness, etc.). Thanks for the input and enlightening.

You're quite welcome. Thanks to you for your thoughtful response.

A good team, to me, is one that is thoughtful, supportive, considerate and caring with each other, regardless of what happens.
