Southern Door's Lydiah LeCloux and Sam Dean each kicked off their seasons on high notes at the Chief K Invitational in Fish Creek.
Dean paced the boys' team and all local runners with a time of 18:35 in the 5K distance, which was good for 20th place. It is not where he wants to be at this point of the season, but Dean says at least it is a start.
LeCloux turned in her own impressive performance, taking ninth overall with a time of 22:00.
