Easy run with the guys on the canal this afternoon.  Very windy from the South, big storm coming in.  The legs felt beat up still but mobile at least.

Speed work today with my girls.  I am not quite ready to do speed with the boys yet, but I can handle the girls speed fine.  We did 15x300m repeats on grass at a park just North of the HS.  They were mostly around 1:10.  Beautiful day and a fun workout.  7.5 miles total

Easy run with the guys down to Riverton pool and back.  Legs are tired, but I'll start feeling better soon.  Beautiful day outside!

Last speed workout with my guys before State.  We met at the park by my house and did a 1.5 mile warm-up then fartleks.  We did 30 sec, 1 min, 2 min with the same recovery time as speed.  Then we did the same thing in a pyramid: :30, 1:00, 2:00, 2:00, 1:00, :30.  We cooled down for 1.5 miles at the end.  Then went to my house for a big Saturday morning breakfast.  Very nice morning for running!  I kept up with my guys until the last set of fartleks then my legs, especially the hamstrings, were like rocks.  I guess I am not quite ready to run fast like that yet, I need one more week.
