Met Jamie and Cynthia at the Trinity Y, then headed out through Trinity Oaks over to Trinity Blvd and then south to East Lake, and left on Keystone until we got to the new section of bike trail until coming back up to Fox Hollow. Got some water at the fountain and continued on back to the Y. It was about 10 miles at that point which was all Cynthia had signed up for so she walked from there and when I got back to the Y, drove back to get her while she had continued on at a walking pace. Jamie did another 2.4 miles and with the miles she had before meeting us at the Y finished the morning with 18.
We did 5/1 run/walk.
We had tried a more direct route for this loop but it only saved us a mile, could use a cooler drop somewhere along the route next time.
In the afternoon went to see Tom running in the track meet at Steinbrenner HS. He was running the 1600 today which ended up being at 3:30 in the afternoon, by which time it had heated up. He was in heat 1. Ended up with just over 4:52 (4:52.09 I think), which was almost one second faster than Tuesday's meet but a few seconds off from his PR of 4:48 on 3/14. Splits were 1:09.7, 1:12.3, 1:14.4, and 1:15.3 (according to my unofficial timing). I was standing next to his coach and he thought it looked like Tom had acclerated going around the curve after the start of the 4th lap but slowed just a little some point after that.
Great effort I think but I know he's got his sights on something a little faster.
