3 early and easy, first day of school today!

6.5 with the xc team this afternoon. Got some good runners out this year that will hopefully motivate me to keep in shape in order to keep up with them! 

3 before school

1mi warmup before the run. 

4.25 with the cross country team. We did a run, where the team is all in a line, and then when you are in the back you need to sprint to the front. 

Early morning but nice and chilly today so it felt great.

Another run with the cross country team. Five and a half mile time trial on a hilly course. The longest stretch of flat was 300m. Before the run I did a mile warmup and then the varsity hopefuls and I toed the line. We set off at a decent pace, but not fast enough for sub 6 pace for the run, which was my goal. I picked it up and the top three went with me. I dropped two of them at the 3mile mark and the final one at the four mile. I cruised in home to 34:54 so not the 6minute pace that I would like, but for the slower start, hilly course, and me not running hills in forever not a bad first tempo run in a while. 

The top three all came in around late 35 to mid 36's so not too bad for them either.

Did not sleep well/went to bed really late with grading papers. 

Ten today, but then I ate alot of junk food to get rid of that effort...
