Guiding Principles of Moorestown Distance Running

There are a number of guiding principals for the Moorestown Distance Running Team:

We are a team.  While distance running may seem like an individual sport, the key to success is working together, helping each other overcome our fears, obstacles, problems and pain.  We are always there for each other to achieve our shared success.
 
We work hard.  We are all in this to test how good we can become individually and as a team.  We set goals and objectives for ourselves and our team, and we work hard to achieve those goals.  We work hard to help our team, and to achieve individual improvement.

We learn.  We are in school to learn, and the most important objective of high school is to learn, get good grades and prepare ourselves for a successful future.  School and classes come first.  But do not be fooled about the lessons you can learn from being a part of this team.

We have FUN.  Most importantly, we want to have fun.  We spend a lot of time together – let’s make sure we laugh.  Let’s have fun traveling to meets, having the 12 Hour Relay, running road races, playing Ultimate Frisbie, making an occasional stop at the 7-11, and getting together to Get Psyched.  Let’s set good goals and enjoy achieving team and individual improvement.

and the strength of the pack is the wolf.”
