Today we did cemetery run, the one past Sugarhouse. Felt nice and easy, 11 miles. I practiced hurdles (a lot more successful than yesterday) while Bill made a makeshift barrier by the long jump pit. I then practiced jumping up on it and continuing my stride after landing on the barrier. After spending a long time practicing that Bill showed me the steeple chase pit (ours isn't in great condition because we never use it but I bet if we cleaned it out it would be usable. Not that we're really ever gonna need it though.) Landing on a slant is really the only thing that worries me, that and chickening out right before the barrier. But I'm a lot more comfortable with it and I can clear them all, I just don't want them to slow me down too much. I can see how they tire you out though, it wouldn't seem that hard on first thought but after doing them over and over I started to get a bit worn out. But 5 laps doesn't seem that bad.
Oh yeah, meet was cancelled :) That's okay I don't like tri meets much.
