The 2010s: The Decade in XC

The 2020s have officially begun which, logically, means its time to spend a ton of time talking about the 2010s. With a complete decade of Pennsylvania XC in the books, I ultimately decided it was to time to dive back in and revisit the last 10 years of names, results, posts, comments and all six versions of the Hershey course. This website will be dedicated to the content I’ve compiled with that usual etrain flair.

I will spend one week on the site revisiting some of my favorite stories from each year of the decade, starting with 2010 and ending with 2019 (game changing innovation). Each week I will also take a look back at a specific district within the PIAA and talk about some of the marquee runners from each area during this 10-year span.

Is starting a multi-month set of posts about a sport that most people have already moved on from (it is January after all) isn’t necessarily the smartest idea, but hopefully you guys will still enjoy this trip down memory lane with me. As always, if you’d like to join in on the process, feel free to reach out to me. I’d love to get other insights or interviews from some of my fellow running super fans.

Lastly, this thing will only spread by word of mouth, so if you think this seems like a fun idea, spread the link around to your friends, family, loved ones, hated ones, old teammates, head coaches, RJJL and Jonah Gillespie-Sickman.

Enjoy the experience.
