I love this blog, but I'm definitely a little bias. It tells the facts how they are, which makes my cross country team look pretty good. And yes, I'm a little bit prideful in my cross country team.
This blog helps me relive all the great moments of something that I have worked really hard for. The triumph, pain, mud, heat and victory all came flowing in from just looking at the pictures or reading comments that are personally related to myself. The hours spent riding on the bus, travelling to other states, hours of practice every day (except Sunday of course), and bonding as a team and family can all be portrayed by few words: hard work, time, dedication, pain, triumph, victory, friends and family. All in that order.
All though this blog might be kind of plain at times or isn't very creative, It helps me to think back on something that I really care about and have experienced with far more than five senses.
It might have boring xc videos, and it might not tell any amazingly illustrated stories, but it gives one like me just enough inspiration to want to live all of it over and over again, pain and all.
Overall, I think to one that hasn't experienced the blog like I have, they may think that it's spacing is kind of weird and that it has a lot of videos with no comments. The stories of triumph aren't elaborated on and are given plainly as facts, but I love it more than any other blog, because it helps me relive things I really care about. To me, it's not the the spacing or creative words or stories in the blogs that matter most. It's what the blog stands for, what pain and hard work has been put into the blog and its stories, and how it makes you feel. Whether it makes you want to stand up for a cause or inspires you to work hard at another amazing cross country season. For me, this is as close to a perfect blog as you can get it.

This was my favorite blog review. You can tell from your review that the AF cross country blog is worth a thousand words and miles to you.
