All things have a beginning. A start. All things have an ending. A finish. And all things have the Path in Between.
Fairbanks Panthers Cross Country Program is one steeped in tradition. It is a reflection of who we were and who we are as well as a projection of who we can be. Our path begins and ends at the trail head. The path in between is what bonds, strengthens and codifies us. From trail head to trail head, start to finish, our adventures, experiences and relationships are what we will reflect back upon and look forward to along our journey.
So start thinking about your path. Soon we will be standing at the trail head of summer training. Consider new running shoes, personal and team goals, along with commitment. The Path of the Panther is long, it will be challenging, and with your commitment, it will be rewarding. The Path of 2022 will be remembered, so let’s set it up bright as fire so the future will be able to see a path of excellence.
Looking forward to seeing you all soon at the trail head.
Coach Van Winkle
