7 miles down riverwalk to a paved road for running I saw a couple days ago. Turned out to be a bust, it was maybe a quarter mile long. Went a bit quicker, watch lost signal but when it worked the pace was in the 6:20's, so a little bit quicker to make up for probably having no workout tomorrow.
The main high school around this area is American Christian Academy. They've won many state championships, and are thought to win this year too. I've been talking to their coach a bit about training me, and yesterday he called me. He talked to me about running for a while, and asked a few questions to determine which event he thought I'd be best at, based on workouts I liked and excelled at. He offered to train me if I, in turn, trained with his team as well. It'd be something like the job of an assistant coach(while still training to make Alabama's team, of course). Coach Tiller is going to introduce me to the team tomorrow, and see what I think.
