I have a wonderful wife and son and we live in Riverton/Herriman Utah. I am a high school teacher, and head coach for cross country and track at Mountain Ridge High.
Beautiful Halloween day! I don't remember it ever being this warm on Halloween. I ran with my guys from Monarch up to the end of Butterfield Park and back on the trail. We added another 7/10s to over 6 miles. 6:55 pace for the run.
I had the kids do our infamous Juniper Crest 800 M hill repeats. I jumped in with the girls on their second one about half way, then did 3 with them and one 400 at the end. All of them had the same distance recovery as the repeat. The girls ran well today, especially my two freshmen girls who don't do well in workouts. I ended up with 6.5 miles for the day.
Butterfield Canyon today with the team. Macy came by to run with us to. It was nice because the canyon is closed for the winter so we had the road all to ourselves. I ran back with the girls for a while then caught up to Greg and the JV boys after a mile or so and ran with them until Macy came back to run with me. I went with him to where I turned around. He kept going to run with the faster boys. I ran 6 min pace down 21 min for the 3.5 miles. My hammy was tight from Monday when it cramped, but I felt good other than that. Last mile was 5:40. Beautiful day for a run, we even hit some snow on the road up the canyon a couple of miles, but it was never cold.
Easy morning run with the kids on a loop on the trail to Mirabella and back to Monarch by way of Shaggy Peak. It was nice, but the wind made it chilly, My hammy is still way tight, so I rumble rolled today after the run, ouch! 7:43 pace
Went down to AF to watch my kids run a cold cross country 5k. They did alright for only racing once in the last month. The boys and I went a few extra miles after their run. We ran out two miles on the new trail that goes through the golf course and over by Lone Peak and turned around and came back. My hammy was sore and beat up, but bearable. 7:43 pace
