Rylan Heffernan has been selected as October Boy’s Cross Country Runner of the Month. He is the son of Dave Heffernan and Janet Snell. Rylan is a senior this year at ADM with 4 years of Cross Country under his belt. He originally joined the running team to get into shape for basketball but ended up liking it for the competition and challenges it contains.

“I love running with my teammates, meeting new people, building new relationships, and having fun,” he said when asked what he loves most about the sport.

To Rylan, being selected this month’s Cross Country Runner of the Month means that his hard work is being acknowledged.

“I think I received this honor because I am a hard worker and I like to make my teammates better.”

In recognition of Rylan’s achievements, Mike’s Adel Power Equipment donated $50 to the ADM Scholarship Foundation.
