Preseason 2016: Air supply

Did I mention it's hot in the dorms? Oh yeah. THAT. Well. Leave it to senior captains Spencer Johnson and Stefan Morton to rig up this ingenious contraption in their room. Spencer texted me this photo along with this description: "Stefan and I made an air conditioner for our room and it only cost $8.60. We just got a styrofoam cooler, an PVC elbow pipe and a fan and filled it with ice and it works great." Neat!

As far as actual cross country running, well, we did start that today. The men were at Mills Mansion in Staatsburg for the annual season-opening hill workout (same workout generations of men have done through the years), while the women continued their newer tradition with 1km repeats at Bowdoin Park. It was hot, for sure. But I know of at least two guys who cooled off nicely afterwards.

And with that, we are off and running with XC 2016. OK!
