Notes
I couldn't run with the CN group tonight due to meetings so decided to run with HS XC Team. They were running long (for HS) and I planned to run with the varsity girls again... place comments here! The boys gave me grief about not running with them so I ran with the boys varsity. What a difference. When I ran with the girls they were asking if I was ok, and if the pace was alright... The boys basically said, let's beat the old man. Of the 7 varsity runners, I beat 3 of them on a 10 mile run from the high school, up Deering Neighbrohood, right onto Hanson's Ridge and down back to Teds with a pick up back to the high school. I ended up not running with the lead group and blowing away the back group... there is this thing called male pride, and the old man needed to show the kids he could still run. The difference is they called it LSD, I called it a tempo! Very happy with pace on final 6 miles... kept pace fairly steady and in control. Cadence was variable. It actually was pretty warm up on the ridge and I slowed it down there. Good run... a wee bit sore tonight, but don't tell the kids!
