Lunch-  went down to the golf course in Tremonton and ran the course that we set up for our invitational meet on Friday.  Should be a fast and fun race, and it is a tag team thing with boy and girls partners.  I ran back to the school afterwards.  I will do a workout with my varsity boys this afternoon before our home meet with Morgan.  We are only running the JV boys and varsity girls today, so that it will be a good competition for the other school.  4.5 miles at 7:25 pace.

 

Practice- I took the varsity guys on a hill workout this afternoon.  We ran out west of town by the water tower on the hill and did a 400 meter intervals up, rested 30 seconds and did 400 meters down.  We did 5 up and 5 down.  The 400s up were at about 80-85 seconds, and the ones down were around 65 seconds.  My guys were trashed at the end, and I was done myself, but it was a good workout.  We went from there over to watch our home meet against Morgan.  We cooled down during the girls race and cheered them on.  Then we ended with 4x100 meter strides barefoot on the grass.  The meet was at a sod farm out in Thatcher, a little town west of Tremonton.  Our JV boys did pretty good against Morgan's varsity boys, and our girls ran their best race yet.  6.5 miles total running.

Hey, glad you stayed alive after last week. I wanted to mention that I like reading about the workouts you're doing with your team. Sounds like fun. I guess I'm a Bear River XC fan now. Hope everything else is good, have a good run at STG.

Your sod farm is on the way to my work- I drove by it this afternoon around 4:45 and saw a bunch of runners. I figured you were there but didn't have time to look for you.
