Relentless

AM - 8.25 Twix/Runway.  Got four in with Twix and then over to the first day of XC.  Had a great turnout with many new faces (now the challenge of keeping them!).  Ran up toward Grapevine for 30 minutes total.  Did abs before because I had to head out quick to a docs appointment.  (Peg black33 218.75)

AM - 8 Twix/Grass. Went four with the dog and then 10mins more at practice before hitting the grass for a few. Ran with some of the kids I don't get to spend as much time with. We have a great group and I'm excited about all the new kids. Ended with striders and then we had kids club. Did abs before practice. (Barefoot '17 2.5)(peg blue 494.85)

afternoon - 20+ min swim. Threw in some intervals to help me survive the boredom. 2x 1min, 45sec, 30sec, 15sec. It was good. I actually kinda liked it. 

AM - 8 Twix/Turtle Road. Abs and then Twix and I did a bit up in the Dirt Mile. For practice we did 40mins up in the desert. I twisted my ankle just before turning. Then under the freeway I tripped in a stupid hubcap ring and got totally jacked. Knocked the breath out of me pretty hard and I just laid there. Then was pretty dizzy (didn't hit my head, just from falling so quick), so I sat there and dry heaved a few times. After a few minutes, I regrouped and was able to finish. So I'm pretty beat up - ankle twisted , cuts and bruises all over, messed up wrist. I'm old. (Peg Oly 354.5)

AM - 9.25 Twix/Parkway. Ran four with the dog up on Bella Vista. For practice we went down to Telegraph and then up the Parkway, down Turf Farm and back. Ended with 8xbarefoot striders. Did abs before - that is working out pretty well for me. (Barefoot '17 3.5)(Adios 465.25)

AM - 10 Twix/Roller Coaster. Went 3 with Reix up on he DM. Then we met at Sullivan and ran Roller Coaster. To finish up our time, we went up the River Trail and back to the park with a good steady state finish. Abs before (that's working out pretty well). (Peg Grey 400.25)

AM - 8.5 Parkway/GS Desert.  Ran with Twix on the Parkway and then with Pyper on the trail up toward Mustang Pass.  (Peg black33 227.25)

Pretty solid week.  Achilles has been up and down.  But I did pretty good and getting up and doing abs and running with the dog.  Plus practice went well.

Goals for next week: just keep on working on getting in shape and pushing the team.
