Mile warm-up, 8.5 easy miles at 7:25 pace, and strides afterwards. Aaron got in a bike wreck and hurt himself, so he's out until camp. By the first mile I had a 200m lead on the rest of the varsity boys, and I wasn't even going aaron and I's normal distance pace. I got bathroom cramps halfway in, but it didn't phase me too much. Strides after. During the strides coach Hill and Henderson came to talk to me. They asked me about my run and how I felt and such, and then they basically told me I should run for college(they both ran Division I back in their day). I said I'd like to and they encouraged me to pursue it. Coach Henderson ran for USU, and he said the consistent 5:21-5:23's I was hitting last week during repeats were his usual repeat times in high school. They also had a talk with me about how I need to keep my body strong and not get sick and have a bad region race like junior year.
3 miles that evening with strides
