To cold and windy in the morning so I decided to just hit the weight room this morning.  Nothing terribly exciting.

6 easy miles over into Little Valley with the team this afternoon.  Temps were a little cool but still felt very nice.

3 miles in the morning over to The Spectrum and back.  

7.5 mile trail run which included hills with the team this afternoon.  I think I might have actually found a decent cross country course for next year.

6 miles from our hotel in Diamond Bar up along the road just exploring California.  Lots of Asian restaurants and markets.  It was fun seeing the school crossing guard in winter apparel when the weather was 45 degrees.  He said he was freezing.  I had to chuckle when I heard that.

3.10 miles on the Footlocker course at Mt. SAC.  It is a lot more gnarly then I remember.  The kids learned what a real cross country course looks like.

We then spent the rest of the day at Santa Monica Beach.  It was fun seeing the filming of an online dating service commercial.  Nothing like the life of show business.

Ran the Footlocker race this morning in the supporter/coach division.  I wasn't planning on anything spectacular.  I ended up running a 4:58 first mile and then I proceeded to hit all the hills which slowed me down.  Sort of happy with the finish.  A fair amount of fast people in the race.  2nd cross country race ever.

I was happy to see the kids race well.  Many of them were happy about the race but a little disappointed as well because of times.  It was a great experience and they will all do better next year.  Lots of fun though.

Now it is time for me to really grit down and focus on my training for Ogden.  Here we go.
