4/8

So today was MICCA WHICH WAS AWESOME. But this is not the place to talk about that. So I did my circuit workout with 26 total warm up and cooldown...not ideal but I was in a hurry. Abs a bit sore but I think I need another week of strength at least with these interruptions. Sigh.

What a beautiful day for a run! did 61 minutes with Joseph Ben and Brendan on Blue Arrow Trail. High 50s, slight breeze, and sunny skies made it an awesome run! As did the company of other runners. Then 6 speedy downhill strides. Awesome.

Meet day! Not a terrific time for the mile and I'm a bit frustrated with not being able to catch up to #3. I'm looking forward to the 800m next meet. 5:11.2 today...sub 5 before the end of the season I hope! MUCH better weather today! As I typed in the meet results I was also impressed with a lot of the efforts people put in and how people went up to new challenges (such as John in javelin or our throwers dominance and James in long jump, chandler in HJ, etc.). Lots of deserving fruit snacks tomorrow. Finished with a nice 4x400 repeats (75-89-83-83) haha those first two were weird...

Another relatively miserable day weather wise, though better than yesterday. Did Needham loop with a jolly group of freshmen (Joseph, Ben, Carlijn, and Brendan). They were quite amusing and fun to talk to! 8 Miles ish with 5 downhill strides to finish up the day.

Well, ran inside the school for 50 minutes today then did 4 uphill strides on the math hall way ramp and corridor. A nicely improvised workout! We spent the base run searching for a coin that Chandler or someone else had hid so it was kind of exciting. We did manage to find it on the third floor eventually.

Temple hill today. Fun as always--it always gets really tiring the last 100m even though the hill levels off a bit more. Tried to stay with Joseph the entire time along with Dan O Neil and Dan Wilkins. Spent a good 30 minutes on that hill. Weather was decent but got chilly and rainy towards the end. 15 up 19 down.

First day of April! Lots of snow doesn't look like spring weather...

Today was a very nice set of drills without power drills. The strides at the end felt really good (the whole set was pretty good overall). 15 up 13 down.
