First Meet of the Season, and Writing Center Retreat

The Team after our first race!
Yesterday was our first meet of the season, a 5k against Mount Mercy at Jones Park in Cedar Rapids.  As a team we ran very well, and it was a great way to start off an awesome season. Individually it was not one of my better races, but it really woke me up, and let me know that there is still plenty of work to do. After the race and a good nights sleep, I departed to Monticello Iowa for a writing center retreat. On this retreat we got to do awesome things like go on long hikes, and play a ton of volleyball, and even swim in a 50 meter pool for 2 hours. We also had an assignment to write what was on our mind, so I wrote a love story about a Princess and a Dragon. We spent the rest of the weekend editing it, and one day it might even make it onto the big screen:) This coming week at Coe will be full of excitement because of formal recruitment, a few hard practices, and a lot of great upcoming meetings for new clubs! I look forward to getting to see which new people will join all of the different organizations here at Coe!
Until The Next Adventure, Ryan Rey
