Wolves (clockwise, starting bottom left) Danny Conlisk, Chris Ruck, TJ Rickner and Sam Wynn hang out at Camp Casey before the start of cross country camp.
And the weeds whisper, “Run, Forrest, run.”
“After I run, I like to eat a sandwich this big!”

Summer is cruising to a close, and fall sports are fast approaching.
Combining the best of both seasons, Coupeville High School cross country runners headed off Sunday to running camp.
The event, held just down the road at Camp Casey, features an appearance by running legend Doris Brown Heritage, who has been inducted three times into a national Hall of Fame.
She won the International Cross Country Championships five years running (1967-1971) and competed at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City.
CHS is restarting its cross country program after a two-decade absence, and the camp gives coach Natasha Bamberger and her runners a chance to work alongside long-established programs.
