15.50 miles in the morning.

6.5 miles in the afternoon.

I woke at 3:30am for my run with Clyde this morning.  We meet at the DC and did a 4 mile warmup, 9 miles at tinman tempo, and then 2.5 miles for a cooldown.  I had to cut the cooldown a touch short due to a meeting I had this morning.  It was nice and dark which made my depth perception all jacked up.  I averaged 5:51/mile for the 9 mile tinman tempo section.  It was nice.

I did an easy 5 miles this afternoon with the XC team.  It was new for many of them having to run in the heat of the day.  They will get used to it though.  I added on another 1.5 by myself in order to try and figure out a course around campus.  I can't believe school starts tomorrow.  Where did the summer go?

4:30 - does that sound good? I'll be at PVHS at 4:30 unless someone calls me and tells me otherwise (I won't be checking the blog again)

Hey coach what's the time that you have to get to make it to state?
