Today is the biggest day of holiday shopping in the year, so enjoy the time with the family, and friends. Remember to do something nice for someone who is not expecting it. Human kindness is important. Be thankful for all you have, and no matter what or who you believe in, do something nice that no one will know about.
Thanks for reading our coverage all season.

Cross country is over. Now is time to unwind.
The body now needs to recover. So does the mind.
We suggest two weeks of recovery twice a year, after cross country and track season. We are providing two options below: week 1 of total recovery (3 days of activity a week), and week 1 of indoor season for distance runners, which keeps it light, and allows you to get into a few races after your amazing cross country season.
And most of all, remember that, when you are looking for running shoes, check out www.hokaoneone.com and check out the results of their fall racing contest, www.hokaoneonepostalnationals.com.
