PM- 90 deg for the first day of middle school cross country tryouts. 37 kids showed up. Had some fun activities, I think it went well. Then I went to the gym for 3 more miles and lifting.

13 people came to frisbee, my team had a sub. Very hot, humid, and windy (sunny and low 90's). My team won 5-4, beating a zone by the other team. We won second game 3-1.

PM- only ran 1 mile setting up the cones for cross county. It was 90 deg, though. My car was in the shop and it was my first real day back at work since last March, so I was only home about an hour between 7 am and 8:30 pm.

For cross country, a couple of our slowest kids didn't show up for the time trial. In the end, the AD and I agreed to keep 38 kids instead of the planned 32, meaning we only had to cut 1 kid (to be fair, he ran 2 miles in 35 minutes, almost 15 minutes slower than the next slowest person). I'm glad we aren't cutting the others. It will be a big, hectic, fun team. We are returning 25 runners and adding 13 new ones.

5v5 frisbee. My team never led till we won 5-4. Then I went to the gym, ran a few more miles and lifted.
