I didn't get to go far because of the thunder storm tonight plus I had my Cross Country openning social to got to. I got stuck in the storm with lightning crashing all around. It would have been a great run if the hair on my body didn't stand up every time lightning hit close by. I was going out at a good pace but picked it up to 6 minute pace on the way home so I didn't die out there. 6 minute pace on that trail with those hills was killer, I felt good though. It was my first day of student teaching today and I just got the Varsity Boys Cross County Coaching position at Bear River High. I am not the head coach, (he has our struggling girls), but I have the big boys, and the other assistant coach has our JV boys. I am excited to run with my guys, I finally met them all today. Chris Brower is our best kid, who I will be working with the most. He beat me and Jon in a 10K a month ago by a few seconds and ran sub 16 minutes at the Judges Invitational last week. I have a lot of kids with potential and I am excited to run with them and help them along. |
