3 miles with the kids to the Spectrum and then I went back for another 1.5 miles. Pushed it for 1.5 miles before meetings at school. Averaged 5:26 for the short tempo.

First meet of the season this afternoon so I was pretty busy with that. Team did well today but still lots of work to be done.

3 easy miles this morning with the team.

Big boy workout with the boys this afternoon at BHNP. 2 mile warm up and then 4x1 mile with 3:00 min. recovery in between with a cool down after wards. Ran 5:41, 5:40, 5:38, and 5:45. This is not an easy course to run but it was good to push with the boys. They ran me into the ground. Nice piece of the humble pie.

Lots of stress and other things on my mind forced me to sleep in this morning. We had another meet today at Hurricane so I had every intention of just getting a fat 0 for the day. The meet went very well and I came home to the family and had a much better attitude. We did a bunch of family stuff and I decided I would head out later in the evening. I ended up getting out the door around 8:30pm. It was nice and relaxing just locking into cruise mode and just enjoy running. I hit just over 16 miles by the time I finished my loop. Decent way to end the day.

I need to be hitting better workouts but I am slightly unfocused at the moment. Hopefully I can work through it. I am happy how the XC team is doing though. It makes my day.
