CHARLESTON, S.C. - Most people believe that training for cross country is quite simple, and the majority of the time they are right. Our coach, Jim Stinzi, likes to tell us at the beginning of every season there are two ways to get better at distance running; run farther or run faster. While this might be a simple approach it doesn't make the training required to compete at the NCAA Division I level any easier.
