Relentless

AM - 7.5 Twix/Sunrise.  Nice morning run.  Getting back to the routine of the morning.  Will test the achilles a little with an afternoon double today.  I am greatful for Sundays and the opportunity to be busy doing and thinking about other things.  This morning, my mind went right back to State - I think it will haunt me for awhile.  Some people have told me that I need to let it go, and I guess in time the memories will fade.  But all I want is answers.  I am not trying to change anything, stir any pots or anything else.  I believe my girls and our team deserves answers to what took place.  And no one can give us any answers without just implying that we are being poor losers.  I am not sure how we are the poor losers when we are the ones that broke no rules (even if the rules were broken unintentially).  The others were allowed to voice their opinions and weren't called poor losers when they got their appeals granted.  I just want to know why the appeals were granted... simple answers.  (Kinvara blue 289)

AM - 7.5 Twix/Sunrise.  Ran with the dog around DogTown and then an easy 30 mins for practice.  Felt tired and tight but okay.  (Peg 654.25)

afternoon - 3.75 Panorama.  Just kind of ran around the Panorama/Pine View area.  All of us were a bit heavy in the legs.  (Kinvara White 464.5)

AM - 7.5 Twix/Sunrise. These morning runs have been a little quicker for me than before the mary. Maybe the legs are coming around and the fatigue is fleeting. Took the afternoon off to rest the achilles. (Peg black 379.75)

AM - 7.5 Twix/Sunrise. Kinda the usual this morning. (Peg 661.75)

afternoon - 4 Green Springs. Just an easy 30. (Kinvara lime 645.25)

AM - 7 Twix/Sunrise. A little slower out of the house and on the run, even with the team. But not a big deal. (Kinvara blue 296)

afternoon - 3 AC. Halloween costume run. Had a great batch of costumes. I was Huns Nuns and Guns (w/o the gun because that might not go over well at school!). (KInvara silver 518.5)

morning - 10 Bicentennial. I'll call it ten, 8.75 with the workout and then probably over a mile running around the course watching the races. Went up to Cedar to watch the Big Sky conference. We ran over to the park and did a workout. This was the first speed work I've done in some time (maybe a year and a half). Warmed for 15 then a short 5 min tempo to get the legs moving and blood flowing. It was a chilly morning. The. Into 10xquarters. Hit much better than I thought and was able to hang onto the back of the boys' pack throughout with anywhere from 1:18 down to 1:10 (slower were on uphill quicker on downhill and the end). Hurried back to the golf course to watch the girls race. Kaylee had a solid race. Then the boys race was fun. SUU won and my good buddy Hayden took home the individual title. Also saw a lot of former teammates - as it was an alumni reunion; fun to talk with them and catch up a bit. (Kinvara green 366.5)

Not a bad week. Got in a few doubles and enjoyed some running. Right achilles is still trash, but I am trying to work on it.

Goals for next week: keep working the leg, keep trying to get in shape a bit.
