🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️ EVERY STEP MATTERS! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Yesterday was a very special day for our Lincoln Cross Country family, and we want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to the Pearsons and Revolution Roofing for their incredible generosity and support of our athletes! 🙌🖤💛

The Revolution Roofing made a very generous donation to our cross country program that will help offset the significant costs associated with hosting this year’s Talladega County Cross Country Meet at the new Stemley Park in Lincoln.

This year’s event will be known as the Lincoln In-School Invitational & Talladega County 5,000 Meter Run, and it will serve as the Talladega County meet for the season right here in Lincoln. We are incredibly excited to host this special event in our community! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

But the generosity didn’t stop there!

🖤💛 EVERY ONE OF OUR RUNNERS received a pair of beautiful black and gold Lincoln Cross Country socks from the Pearsons! 🖤💛

It was such a thoughtful gesture and something our athletes can wear with pride as they represent their school, their team, and their community.

The Pearsons also took the time to speak to our team and share a powerful message about perseverance, determination, and what cross country can teach us about life.

They reminded our runners:

“Life is a lot like cross country. There will be unexpected hills, difficult obstacles, and moments when you feel like you have nothing left to give.”

They encouraged our athletes to push their limits, believe in themselves, and understand that the challenges they face on the course can help prepare them for the challenges they will face throughout life.

And we especially loved this message:

Run with heart.
Compete with courage.
Finish with pride.

The race may end, but the lessons last a lifetime.

We are incredibly thankful for community partners like the Pearsons and Revolution Roofing who believe in our students, support our athletes, and invest in the future of our program. Your generosity means more to us than you know!

From our coaches and athletes. THANK YOU for believing in Lincoln Cross Country and for standing behind our runners! 🖤💛

Please join us in giving the Pearsons and Revolution Roofing a HUGE shout-out and showing your appreciation for a local business that is investing in our kids and our community! 👏👏👏

We challenged our kids this season, starting the year with two very tough courses. We promised them, though, that a flatter course was coming and with it, the PRs, the breakthroughs, and all the extra things we knew they were capable of.

Tonight was a prime example of that progress. 🔥

GIRLS:
Our girls were projected to finish 6th and came away with a 5th-place finish, just 7 points behind 4th. That makes it three straight Top 5 finishes to start the season!

Riley Stephens continued her incredible start to the season, finishing 7th overall for her second Top 10 finish in just two races. She also ran a season-best 22:24! 👏

Sarah Claire Robbs had a fantastic race as well, running 24:40 and finishing 23rd overall, putting her inside the Top 25.

Our 7th-grade girls, Kynlee James and Carter Peters, both ran in the 25-minute range and posted personal-best times, continuing to show just how much this team is improving.

Senior Brooklyn Payne also had a strong night, running a season-best performance!

From the top of the lineup to the bottom, we’re seeing improvement, confidence, and athletes continuing to buy into the process. That’s what makes this team so exciting.

BOYS:
The boys once again entered the race as the underdog, projected to finish 3rd, but they had other plans. On Southside’s home course, our guys came away with a HUGE team win!

We had four athletes finish inside the Top 10:

🥈 Noah Colley — 2nd overall
🥉 Konner Parham — 3rd overall
🏅 Ayden Hawkins — 4th overall
🔟 Jackson Peters — 10th overall

All four ran personal bests, while Javien Kirksey added a season best!

This marks the boys’ third straight team victory to start the season, and the numbers they are putting up now have them firmly in the conversation with the top teams in the state.

We couldn’t be more proud of both teams. We challenged them early, they trusted the process, and now we’re starting to see the results.

And the best part?

We’re just getting started. 💪🔥

We’re excited to see what the rest of this season holds as we continue to get better, work harder, and chase bigger goals every single week.

🖤💛 PLEASANT VALLEY RAIDER RUN — WHAT A DAY FOR LINCOLN CROSS COUNTRY! 💛🖤

Today was a BIG step forward for our Lincoln Cross Country program! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

🖤💛 GIRLS TEAM 💛🖤
Our girls started the day by putting together multiple PRs and showing just how much progress they’ve made since last week.

We finished 7th out of 13 teams overall, while also taking 4th in the Small Schools Division, finishing just 3 points behind Boaz but beating them in the overall by meet by 2 points.

The finish may have looked similar to last week on paper, but make no mistake — the improvement from last week was HUGE! 📈

A special shoutout to our girls who recorded career PRs today:

👏 Lily Babcock
👏 Clara Byers
👏 Carter Peters

🖤💛 BOYS TEAM — BACK-TO-BACK CHAMPS! 💛🖤

Our boys came into today’s race projected to finish 3rd overall, behind Southside and Alexandria.

Instead, our guys came together, raced with confidence, and got the job done — winning the meet and making it BACK-TO-BACK MEET WINS to open the 2026 cross country season! 🏆🏆

We also had two athletes finish in the Top 10 overall:

🥈 Konner Parham — 2nd Overall
4️⃣ Noah Colley — 4th Overall

Our remaining scoring five who helped secure the team victory were:

👏 Colin Allison
👏 Jackson Peters
👏 Javien Kirksey

And the PR train kept rolling! 🚂🔥

⭐ Season PR: Colin Allison
⭐ Career PR: Carson Hannon
⭐ Career PR: Bravin Holdridge
⭐ Season PR: Bentley Otts
⭐ Career PR: Jai’yeed Garrett
⭐ Career PR: Grayson Hall

This group is HUNGRY. They’re getting better every week, they’re believing in each other, and they’re chasing something bigger.

🔥 OUR BOYS ARE ON FIRE.
🎯 WE ARE ON A MISSION.
🏆 THE GOAL IS TO BE RECOGNIZED AT THE STATE LEVEL.

And today was another step toward getting there.

Lincoln Cross Country is just getting started. 🖤💛🔥

🏆 THE DUB IS COMING HOME TO LINCOLN! 🏆

LEHGOOOO……What a way to kick off the 2026 cross-country season! The Lincoln Boys Cross-Country Team took home the DUB at the Wildcat Kickoff today!

Not only did our boys win the Large School Division, but they also won the OVERALL MEET, defeating No. 1-ranked 3A White Plains on their home course! 🔥

This was an incredibly stacked field, with right around 8 teams ranked in their respective classifications to start the season. Our guys showed up and competed from start to finish!

👏 Congratulations to:
🥉 Noah Colley — 3rd Overall
🏅 Konner Parham — 5th Overall

Both were recognized with T-shirts, and Noah also received a medal for his Top-3 finish!

And our Lincoln Girls deserve a HUGE shoutout! 💪❤️ We had 10 girls race today, and only ONE had ever competed in a 5K before. With two of our top five runners out, they still battled their way to a 4th-place overall finish!

Watch out for these girls this season. 👀 When we get back to full strength, they are going to turn A LOT of heads!

There is something special about this team. From our athletes and coaching staff to our families and the entire Lincoln community, there’s something in the air this season.

Today was just the beginning.

2026 is going to be a GREAT one.

Huge Shout-Out to Our Lincoln Cross Country Supporters! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Lincoln Cross Country wants to give a HUGE shout-out to two amazing supporters for their generous support of our runners today!

🎉 First up, the Gibsons!
Thank you so much for sponsoring our first weekly giveaway! Every runner received a snack bag packed with electrolyte drinks, protein bars, and other snacks to help fuel them for this weekend.

We absolutely LOVE the phrase you shared with the team:

“Eat. Hydrate. Run. Repeat. Good Luck at your first meet”.💪💧🏃‍♀️

What a perfect reminder as our runners get ready for their first meet! Thank you for helping our athletes feel supported and ready to run!

💦 We also want to thank Chase Scott, Sales Representative at J Supply Company, an industrial, safety, janitorial, and hydraulics provider, for providing our runners with water to keep them hydrated!

We are so grateful for the generosity and support of our community. It takes an amazing village to support these athletes, and we appreciate everyone who helps make this season special!

Thank you, Gibsons and Chase Scott, for supporting Lincoln Cross Country! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️
