Notes
XC summer practice. Ran Tubbs, two laps. Must be longer than 5 miles because we were cooking. Ran with Ryan, Paul, Pony, Bob, Matt Verc, Ryan Moran, Jacob Moran, Eric, Pablo, and Alec. Jacob, Eric, Pablo, and Alec all only did one lap. I was hanging with Ryan, Paul, and Pony- the big dogs. I finished with them as a group. At one point on Monroe Street coming back, Ryan Moran passed me, and I was falling off. For some reason though, I decided to kick and catch up to the pack. I focused on opening up my stride a bit and pumping my arms to make it easier, and let them drag me along, thinking that I'd just let me take them a little farther. Quads were hurting. Again only got 7 hours of sleep last night. Have decided to do 75 crunches a day per the instructions in the Bill Rodgers training log that Matt Verc gave us. Joe Kelley workout later- important that I go to these in order to strengthen my apparently weak quads. I've decided that its important to do what I did today and try and stick with the top dogs on every run I am able to in order to train hard and get stronger as well as increase my pain threshold. All in all, a good run today.
