As Marquette’s season gets underway this weekend, Daniel Pederson is preparing for his first race after a summer filled with success.
In June, Pederson won the WIAA state title in the two-mile race and was the runner-up in the one-mile race. On top of that, Pederson is an elite cross-country skier and has won numerous events in the sport. The two-time Section 1 Wisconsin Cross Country Coaches Association Runner of the Year has the pedigree to impress.
For Pederson, it is not about how he finished in June. It is about how he starts in September.
“I just want to get a good time that I can shoot for it again, and hopefully break through it again,” Pederson said.
