Notes

Long run. Steen told us to attack every hill we encountered and we should NEVER DO THAT AGAIN!!!!!! We ended up just striding/sprinting up every incline in the road, and by the time we got a drink of water about 5 mins before the pick up everyone was complaining about how their legs were dead. People were not really confident about the pick up and everyone started pretty slow. I just kinda chilled for the first 5 mins, then started to pick it up. My legs were not feeling great, but i decided to let my body just run. Just opened the stride and feel into a solid rhythem. Caught Mike not long after he feel off Alekh and he feel about 5-10 secs behind me. Alekh finished 16 secs in front of me and i timed the pick up at 15:21 for me. I then g-mapped the pick up to be 2.72 miles for the 20 mins. That is 5:39 pace for me, and if Alekh finished in 14:55 thats 5:30 pace for him. So for not feeling that great we still got in a solid pick up and i felt very relaxed. Was really surprised i ran that pace because i told Alekh it felt like i was running the pace we would run the 2nd 2 mile loop of an m-pace at, which is around 5:50 pace. That distance is a guess, but figured we went a little over 14 because of all the hill pick ups, and i will have no time the rest of the day for the afternoon run as i have to go to my cousins birthday party, then drew smith's grad party, but if the legs are junky the afternoon run probably is not a good idea anyways.
