i want to get recruited, but i’m a lot worse at track compared to xc. i got 7th at new york xc states this year, but in track for the 3k i would be nowhere NEAR that. in xc, i am good and can beat most of the girls who can kill me in track.
so i was wondering, to get recruited, do i need good track times? because the times that stand out for me are my 5k xc times, but i’ve heard these aren’t reliable to colleges because of courses, conditions, etc. but the issue is they’re my only really good times/places in competitions that are good! my 3k times are just disproportionately so much worse.
