Easy 6 miler out through Garland to the cemetary and back during lunch. Talk about a flat run! There are zero hills in this part of Box Elder County, something that I am not used to.
Afternoon- Long run with my boys. We went on an 8 mile run out to Dewyville and back. We stopped at the Artic circle for some water on the way out and back. We actually had a couple big hills coming up and out of some gullies. My guys are not used to hills so that will be something we will work on. My best kid started having troubles with a couple miles to go, so I finished out the run with the rest of the guys and went back for him. I quickly diagnosed his problem as dehydration. I got him some poweraid had him sip it and had another guy take him home. I later called his parents to see how he was doing. I took all of my guys and we had a little talk about post race and run recovery and hydration. Oh the joys of coaching! Good run today with my guys, I was impressed with them, they are good kids and have a lot of running potential. We started at 7:30 pace and progressed in to 6:20 by the end of the run. 9 miles 6:57 average for the run. |
