MileSplit Maryland is asking several of the top state's top returning cross country runners to share with us their summer training leading up to the 2016 XC season. Interested in blogging for us? Email us HERE.
Howard rising senior Courtney Mann was the top runner for a deep Howard girl's team in 2015 that finished tenth at the 4A State Championships. She ran a personal best of 19:44.80 at the Nike Cross Nationals Southeast Regionals and finished 36th at the state championships. She rose to another level during the track season, however, posting personal bests in the 800 (2:23.96), 1600 (5:12.40) and 3200 (11:19.78). Mann is the top returner on a Howard team that ranks seventh in MileSplit's returning composite scores (combining returning cross country and track times).
Follow along with Courtney Mann's 2016 summer training below!
