Easy 3 miles in the morning with the team.

Had meetings all afternoon. Ended up getting out later than planned and got stuck in the rain, wind, lightning and thunder. Didn't want to take my chances so I hurried back to the school and called it good.

Tabatta workout this morning and then easy 3 miles with the team. Got rained on so that helped it feel nice.

Workout with the team. 2 mile warm up, 5x1 mile repeats w/2:00 min. recovery jog, and then cool down afterwards. Hit 5:23, 5:22, and 5:15 with Josh and then jumped in with Courtney and ran 6:19 and 6:05. My legs are shot for some reason and the calves are extremely tight.

Met up with the guys this morning. My calves were crazy tight and I knew I shouldn't have hopped in to the mile repeats yesterday. We did our old tempo loop again. It was rainy and a little windy but I felt okay for the first little bit. I got to 6 miles and was only hitting 5:49s so I called it good. My calves and hamstrings were pretty tight. Dave and Steve ran great today. I got 13 total miles in with them though. Not a great run but oh well!

3 more miles with the team in the morning.

6 miles easy this afternoon with 6x100m barefoot strides with the boys. Nice and relaxed run. Always fun.

3 miles easy this morning with the team.

Ran at Little Valley Park today with the team. 2 mile warm up, 6x400m grass repeats with the girls and then a 2 mile cool down. Paced the girls to keep it nice and steady. Solid workout from them. Calves are killing me right now.

Really tired this morning and the calves and hamstrings were not 100%. Decided to just get in a semi long run and call the work good. Ran from the hotel in Orem and then south along Geneva Rd. for a while until I hit University Ave. Temps were nice but I wish I felt a lot better. Averaged 7:30/mile overall. Nothing spectacular but happy to be done for the week. Hopefully the legs liven up for next week.

Very happy with how the team did today at the BYU Autumn Classic. Very happy with how the Varsity Boys did as a team taking 3rd overall out of 27 schools and beating a couple nationally ranked teams. 18 second split from our top 5 guys. Great race from the team today!
