Ran big circles around the pool while the kids were at swimming lessons. I wanted to make sure I got 3 miles in before they were done. I made it back on deck just as they were getting out. So my average pace was a little fast for easy, but I was glad I completed it. Plus I was only doing 3, so it's not like I needed to sustain the pace (it was 8:19 avg). It was too humid, so it was a little hard to breathe. But at least it was overcast because I started running at 11:05! Tomorrow I'm handing off the reins of "my" cross country team to their new coach. I haven't even met him yet, but we'll meet for a run with some athletes tomorrow morning. I have so many mixed feelings about giving up cross country. It is goodbye to 13 years of coaching (10 of them with runners). It's sad because I know that my chances of coaching ever again are slim
to none. |
