1:47:23. Drove to the track, ran one very tough 6 mile loop up towards my house and then down the other side of the mountain (~56 mins), then did what was supposed to be 35 mins on the trails, but ended up being 33 mins, the "back" from the out was much faster. Then I put on my frees with my orthotics and did two miles on the track. I have been running faster than I had thought lately, I need to slow down as I increase my mileage again. My two miles were 8:24, 8:21. I have such a busy week this week. I have meetings early in the morning tomorrow, then I teach and go to meetings all afternoon. Tuesday we have a College-wide strategic planning meeting from 8-2 (I HATE these, but have to go because I am chair of the faculty assembly). Then on Wednesday I fly to DC for 3 more long days of meetings -- they don't finish until 3PM on Saturday and then I run to the airport and hope I can make my flight to get home late Saturday night. Anyway -- I do get to see the Argentine Rocket, so it won't be "all" work ... I hope you are all doing well and enjoying your family today!! Awesome cross-country results yesterday! !!! Arizona women qualified for NCAA's!!! Arizona took 4th in the West regionals -- they came in 4th behind Washington, Oregon and Stanford -- it was one of the closest NCAA regionals I have ever seen, with the top 4 teams within 17 points of each other (the fifth team was 69 points behind Arizona)! Other good news was that Vanderbilt also is going to NCAA's!! Yea Vandy!
