I really wanna quit cross country. I have no fun nor am I any good. My coach doesn't know what she is doing, so we have to run mile repeats (3 of them) on this cement track near my school. This may not seem tough to some of you, but it is tough for us out-of-shape middle schoolers. This gave me really bad shin splints and she is going to make us do this once every week. My shins can't take that. Also, I was top runner returning but than my coach recruited a bunch of lungs on legs, who are cocky and very lazy. I get so sick of hearing them talk about themselves. And our coach makes us cheer for our teammates... during the workouts!!! And one time my coach made me run when my shin splints were bad, so everyone was cheering me on. It was embarassing. My heart isn't in this sport, and I can't enjoy a good hobby of mine. So I brought up the idea of quitting to my parents and they started screaming at me. "you aren't not f$$cking going to quit." I am running out of space, so I will post more

I am really upset. I can't take another day of this, and it has only been 3 weeks. NOTE: this is a new coach, because my old coach wanted to coach the high school team.
I would really like to quit but two of my three coaches are my teachers and I often see my third coach in the hallway so I would prefer not to get myself kicked off the team.

This season has caused me to hate myself and running.
