One Mile at a Time

Congratulations to Jerry who finally got an FRB. I feel like such a proud parent! Go look at it, it's in my favorites.

Good to be back with the team. Justin was at practice which was cool. He got back from his mission yesterday at 4:00. We did a mile warm up then 3 mile repeats. Mile repeats are almost as bad as running at Willow Park. I could tell I didn't run the past three days because I wasn't going as fast as usual. Mile cool down after. Weights today, kept it one hundred, did some pull ups, climbed a rope, did those weird leg things. Wall sits as well. We found out some strange things about Tanner (Texas) today. Jerry had a romantic moped ride with Riley after practice and Brady said some for funny stuff. There were a couple good roasts so practice was good. I'll do a recovery run later today.

PM- Recovery run in the foothills to Molly's with Jared from Battle Creek. The sunset was amazing! We got back to the car to find Brady and Michaela in the parking lot coming back from a hike. Good recovery and excited for Stewart Falls tomorrow.

My alarm didn't go off so I woke up at 7:31 and we were supposed to meet at 7:00. I got in the car then drove to Sundance. I ran the two ish miles to Aspen Grove alone then tried to find the Stewart Falls trail but got lost but a lady told me where to go so I found it. I caught up to coach and some of the girls and a couple guys and met with everyone else at the waterfall. We walked under it and it was freezing. AF was also up there so it was fun talking to some of there guys. Ran down with Riley, Jared and Brady and it was crazy. I'm glad I was able to catch the crew at the waterfall. Brian and Riley drove back with me so I didn't have to be lonely. Fun run today, doing more later.

PM- 3.8 easy out to Manila Pond, around it then back home. While I was running I saw Simko for the first time in weeks. 

8 miles today going north on the canal. Riley, Harambe, Ali and I ran together. Our average pace was 6:45 so not too fast but no one really wanted to push it before the race Monday except Jared who went faster and longer on the run. It was as good as a run can be for going north on the canal. After the run we had donuts and then Riley, Nico, Jerry and I went to packet pick up for the Freedom Run where we saw Thomas. Doing an easy run later today after work. Also shoutout to my shoes for hitting 100 miles today. I'm so proud of them and the places we go together. I look forward to many more trips with them!

PM- 3 miles. 1.5 out to almost the pond and back. Shoutout to Casey because he took third at the Elite camp mile running a 4:05.869.
