Pretty bummed I didnt get a run in yesterday.  Couldnt drag myself out of bed in the dark and then worked half day and straight off to the FSU Relays.  Well worth it - Maclay had a really good day, and Travis did ok too.  Getting healthier and stronger again - five weeks til State!  He went 2:00.88 in the open 8, and came back today with a really good 1200 - shame he was running 1600.  Much positive to take from it tho - pretty much the first time he ever really hammered the 3rd lap - came through right at 3:20 - right where he needs to be in a few weeks when he's fully healthy and fit again.  Unfortunately today he finished up with a 75 - ah well.

Trav ran in the rain delayed morning session today and then I zipped home for a quick 8 miles in the neighborhood - 6 of em were even rain free - running in the rain is good... as long as there's no lightning, hail or tornadoes - eh, Bret?!

A little rain never hurt anybody :). Nice report on Trav - has he run sub 2 mins for the 800 already or was that his PR?

That was a PR by a bit (he ran even splits so when he's fully strong he'll go 1:58) - in seven days he has dropped a bit off his PR in the 3200 (10:06) and the 800 and he ran a 4:35 1600 - all while pretty sick and on very limited running in last two weeks. He'll be fine
