this morning in honor of the first day of school for the high schoolers I ran out 2.5 miles past east then back. I made it to just about the cemetery then I ran back. As I was running back the High Schoolers were just arriving at East.... #memories. Oh the good ole days of high school running!1
Did my core when I got home.
I went for my run at about 2:20 in the afternoon because I had to go to a training at 5. So I ran down to sugarhouse park and when I got there Highland was just getting out for their first day of school so they all cheered me on... and liked my socks! Good thing I didn't wear an East Cross Country shirt! But when I got to Highland I immediately went into doing an outer grass lap then I went in the park, ditched the shirt then measured a 400 going up the hill at about 150-200 meters so that way I would have about 200 meters after the hill to really push. I did in on the downhill on the state course at about mile 2 but I went up the hill on the road. I found it was exactly 4 light poles out so they are each about 100 meters long because it was like .27 to the light pole so I just went to the pole. I did 2 going up the hill with recovery running back down the hill. I was going to do 3 of them but after the second I was feeling like I was going to puke, probably because of the heat or I haven't done hills all summer... or both! Then I did a mile cooldown then took an ice bath in the river. It didn't really work because I am still sore!! 3 miles warm up... |
