Okay well this XC season I sucked at blogging cause we had a thing to blog on for the team and I would usually just do that. But for Track we dont do that so I am back fully for fastrunningblog. 

We are on our 2 week break so today I did some abs workouts. And later today I will practice on my shot for my rec league basketball team, the Spitting Llamas. Current record, 0-2 but they were both well fought games. Scores for those were 63-45(yah that was when half of the team was gone @footlocker) and 23-22 loss at the buzzer.

Today was weights day. I did that real quick and then went to the Rec center to ball it up with my buds. I am struggling with my shot, real rusty. I gotta put in some more time before Saturday, we are playing the best team, Varsity Material. And they beat the 2nd best team by 30 points so yah it will be interesting.

Weights day again! I forgot to bring clothes to work out in so I was wearing pants and a long sleeve shirt. Sad day. But I worked out real good so that was nice.

Rec League game time!!! We were matched up to play the best team, Varsity Material. And they were exactly that. It was a whole bunch of dhills dudes that just didnt try out for the team this year and they were freaking beast!! Anywho, the game starts and I was hot. Scored the first 8 points of the game, and 10 points for my team. Then they pulled ahead. Half they were up by only 9. We fell back during the 4th when I got 3 turnovers in a row:/ yah that was bad. But we ended up only losing by 6 points, 43-37. Fun game, we really drived them crazy by slowing down the pace of the game. 

2 week break is over tomorrow and I am so ready to run. We are gonna get rolling, and this year we are gonna go to a couple indoor meets as the distance dudes so that will be sick.
