I'll be a high school sophomore next year, and I would really like to join my school's girls Cross Country team. This summer I have been running 2-3 miles a day for about 2 weeks so far. However, I'll be away on vacation for about a month and I don't know if I will be able to run where I am vacationing. I know it will probably be hard for me to run when I get back from vacation, and I was wondering what I can do to make it easier to start running again once I return. I was also wondering how much I should be training. I've never been on the cross country team before and I heard that they usually run around 3-5 miles. I can run three miles but I'm still not very fast yet. Is there anything I should be doing to improve my speed besides practice? Also, is it okay if I listen to music while I run? I'm pretty sure I won't be able to listen to my iPod during practices or anything, but will it be harder for me to run if I'm not listening to it? Thanks for your suggestions!
