First day of XC 2023.  Had a bout 40 kids out today, lots of Trek and FSYs this week.  Ran up Emeline and back with the kids and Lucy and Aubrie.  Achilles was a bout the same, maybe a bit better to start.  About 1.5 in I couldn't feel it as much.  I have some new methods and tools to work on the achilles, so hopefully I can get it better this summer.  7:51 ave.

Woke up early and went running solo before practice.  Achilles took longer today to warm up, probbly about 1.5 miles.  Did the same run as Saturday, but a bit faster.  7:37 ave.  Went to practice and lifted at the HS.

Ran up the rail trail behind our Condo and into downtown, then made my way up into Deer Valley.  I was struggling, not just with the sore achilles, but with the run.  I figured out why on the way back.  It was all uphill!  7:32 ave.  8:34, 8:18, 8:15, 6:58, 6:33, 6:35.

Picked up Jaren and Nate from FSY at BYU and then went to Provo Canyon to run.  I eneded up leaving early and never saw the boys.  Achilles was pretty tight like usual until 1-1.5 miles.  Beautiful morning and the canyon was pretty.  Great run, even though it was busy.  I went up to Bridal Veil Falls.  the trail was blocked because of the slide, so I went around on the road.  Ended up over 8, so I added on a bit to get to 8.5.  Good run!  7:26 ave

Went to Magelby's for French Toast after the run.
