How can I still enjoy sports after high school?

<p>This is probably the wrong board but I didn't know where else this would fit.</p>

<p>So here's the deal: I run cross-country and track (100, 200) in high school and I actually enjoy doing both of them. Unfortunately I doubt I'm good enough to pursue either of them at the DIII level (my 5k time in xc is just under 20, I might just make varsity sprinting senior year) and even if I was, academics is still my priority in college and I don't want EC's to take time away from that.</p>

<p>In any case, I'm just wondering how some of you guys might enjoy sports after high school. It's probably easier with basketball and soccer since there can always be pick-up games, but for running I doubt I'll be able to run in competitive races outside of college athletics.</p>

<p>Please don’t do what a junior I know is planning.</p>

<p>Instead of going to a four year she’s going to a junior college so she can continue volleyball. Seems like a huge waste of time to me.</p>

<p>But on your issue, I know my area has a triathalon training club. They all get together and run and watch diets and what not in prep for local races. Maybe where you will be will have one. Check around.</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure there will be some kind of club wherever you go that you can run with. There are a lot of XC runners that won’t want to quit</p>
