GOING THE DISTANCE

4pm-  Ran in the boulder mountains again with my dad.  The scenery was really pretty and the trail we ran on was legit.  Tons of trees and bushes around.  I felt like a bear was gonna pop out somewhere.  We started at 8500 ft and got up to about 9500 ft so pretty high altitude.

9pm-  Got home today at 6 and me and my dad went out pretty late.  It was really windy at first and about 2 miles in it started raining.  We were maybe going to run on the grass at green springs park but we almost stepped on a 7 foot gopher snake so we both got a little paranoid so we ran up to the top of north bridge and down around the golf course club house then past the double churches and home.

3pm-  Afternoon run at coaches house.  We headed out towards maverick and the great wall of grey rocks.  Pretty hot but i felt decently good.  Swam after in coaches pool and made wackers.

7am-  For practice we went down to hell hole to do a hill workout.  I didn't do any hills but everyone else did.  I just ran down towards shanob kibe and went about .75 miles then came back.  

7am-  Today I did the full workout with the team.  We met at Pine View park so we could do tempos in washington fields.  Us level 2s did 7 miles with a 2 and a half mile tempo.  Our average pace for the tempo was 6:30 minute miles.  The only hard part was after staheli farm where you go around that little mountain and its a bit of a hill.  Other than that it wasn't too hard. 

4:30pm-  Me and my dad went and did mustang pass loop.  I didn't wear my insoles so my feet got a bit sore from all the pointed rocks.  We went 8:18 average pace so thats pretty good for this route.  I have been doing good without my support insoles.  So maybe i'll pull out my kinvara 2's I got a year ago but never wore since i always had foot problems.
