City of Trees 1/2 marathon course - 1:33

Woke up to rain and wind. I was pretty sure Mat was going to bail, but at 8:35 he called and said he was at the starting line and running the half marathon. I drove down to about the 2.3 mile mark on the course and caught him as he was coming by. I ran the next 10.5 miles with him before turning off and jogging back to my car. Despite the miserable conditions, Mat ran a 1:32 - 2 minutes off his goal. It was a lot of fun to pace Mat and also a good way to get in 13 miles. I hadn't run over 8 miles in a long time prior to this, so I'm glad I can still do it.

Ann Morrison Park - 17+

Jogged the city meet course really easy with the team. Legs felt a little dead but not really sore.

XC Practice

Today I raced the xc team for milkshakes. On our mile course, I gave the girls a 1:00 headstart and the boys :30. If any one runner beat me than I would buy milkshakes for the whole team. I ended up with a 4:59 and beat all of them so I was safe, although I ended up buying quite a few for those who forgot money.

Was going to run again at night but just got too tired.

PMI: 12 x 400 at XC practice

Ran some 400s on the grass with the team. The boys and girls each did 6, so my recovery was only about 30 seconds after each one. It was a good effort by the team and I had to push it to keep up at the end.

PMII: Canal Banks - 31+

Easy run on the canals. Last 6 minutes with Leo in the neighborhoods.

Sun Valley trails - 45:31

Ran from the lodge and did close to 30 minutes on some super scenic trails, then back through the golf course and bike path. Great run. Came down with a cold and felt lousy most of the day, but better after this run.
