Notes

928 days. Super random running today. Beautiful morning that included overcast skies, a light breeze, and even a few rain drops at the end. Started my run with the NHS XC team this morning. Peterson asked me to run with the varsity guys for an interval workout. I'd never run with them before, so of course they were little yahoos and tried to be really fast and awesome. Silly kids. They about killed me the first minute of the up-tempo pieces, but then they'd all start falling apart. Apparently they've struggled with this in the past, so we'll have to work on pacing and cutting down this year. They're a young team. Anyway, that was warm up, 3 x 5 min pick ups on the high school state meet course, and cool down. Then I headed over to the Olaf track for some mile repeats? Dumb, I know. Anyway, did a couple more miles of easy running, then did 2 x mile and ran 5:47 each time. Felt good for most of it, but not quite as healthy as I'd like. I hadn't planned on the workout before the mile repeats, so I was hoping to do 3 mile repeats, which just seemed like a bad idea by the time I finished my second. Enjoyed a little cool down around the Olaf campus and headed home.
