The Interlake Cross Country team won their district with an impressive win at Lake Sammamish State Park on Thursday, October 23. Joseph finished sixth overall in the entire district with a time of 17:01 in 5K, tying his personal best. It was very cold and wet.
Interlake then went on to race in the Metro Regional meet in Seattle the following Thursday, October 30. It was a rainy day and the conditions were very muddy. The race was held at Woodland Park in north Seattle. Of the twelve schools competing Interlake finished second, with Bishop Blanchet winning the meet. Joseph finished at 16:55, his new personal best, and was 28th out of approximately 100 runners.
With the second-place finish Interlake qualifies for the State Finals, to be held Saturday November 8 in Pasco Washington. The team set a goal at the start of the year to finish in the top four in State - stay tuned for details on how it turns out!
