Turn your rut into a groove.

am--9 Sugar Loaf Progressive run. Nice group this morning. The freshmen are stepping up. I love it. On the way back, I could feel some tightness in my upper calf/lower hamstring. I need to make sure to roll. RHR--54. 

pm--2.25 Grass loops on the softball field. What a great group of kids we have at PVXC. My body felt better this afternoon. 

am--4 DI/Harts and beyond. Some weights thrown in there, as well. RHR--49. 

pm--7 Green Springs w/ the loop around the eastside of the golf course. We had a nice push today. Nonetheless, I felt a little flat. Jada rocked it. 

am--4.5 DI/Bank. Good run w/ some rants from the crew. RHR--53. 

pm--3.25 Warm and cool w/ the girls, sandwiched around their workout. People are stepping up, and it's fun to watch. 

am--3.5 DI reverse and Harts+. Chilly morn w/ some running. The back of my knee is a bit creaky. RHR--52. 

I also finished another book--Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi. One of our teachers is teaching this graphic novel and is getting some pushback. So the principal asked us to read it and contribute our two cents. It's an interesting look at the Iran of the late '70s-early '80s. As far as graphic novels go, they're a nice change of pace but not something I would read constantly. 

am--4.5 DI/Bank. Good morning, good chat. 

pm--7.5 Turkey Farm Progression. I love this run. It's a chance to do some good climbing and then let the legs loose a little on the way back, culminating in a good push through the neighborhood. Erged 10 minutes (2.2k) after I got home.

am--7 An improvised version of the morning route at a stout pace. My body felt surprisingly good after aching all week long. RHR--52.
