Been a busy week- working from home due to office building work makes it harder to get into gym. Did some running today with my XC team. Hosting our meet next week, and I'm the RD and only one who arranges everything. Busy, busy.

Cross country meet week. Walked the entire 2 mile course setting up flags/streamers. I'm very proud of the course- lots of singletrack, a wet-foot stream crossing, and finishes with a solid 1/3 mile uphill climb of 100 feet. The race is tomorrow.

Evening- ran the course with the team

ran all over during the day as part of hosting our cross country meet. Delayed 1 hour due to lightning, had to run boys and girls together, but it was a success

Indian run day at practice. Not sure how much I ran, but quite a bit. 15 min with the slower group, then 20 min with the faster.

only had time for a little elliptical. Unsurprisingly, my left heel is sore after yesterday. It's been 3 months since it first flared up.

Played frisbee for the first time in 3 months. I'm sure my foot will hurt tomorrow. My team won 5-2 and 3-1.
