No run today.  However, my boys took region today.  They were way pumped and so was I.  We beat Cedar 31-45.  Hurricane was next with 52.  My top 4 runners took 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 6th.  Their times were 15:44, 15:49, 15:50, 15:52.  Our 5th runner also PRed with a 16:54.  Hopefully that gap will close more at state.  I never thought we would have 4 runners under 16 min.

P.M.  Ran the shorter trail run with the varsity boys today.  They were still on a high from yesterday.  Hopefully that will carry into next week.  They should be in the top 3 for 3A with a chance at 1st or 2nd if they run like they did yesterday.

A.M.  Another easy day this morning for the team.   We ran the Auto Mall route.  Some of the guys picked it up towards the end and I kept the pace easy.  Legs still wont turn over very well since the marathon.

A.M.  It is nice being off of school for 5 days.  We did a speed workout today.  2 mile warm up, then 2 x 800, 2 x 400, 4 x 200, .5 cooldown.  Each of the repeats got progressively faster in pace.  Two miles of speed work was easy for the guys now.  I ran towards the back of the varsity guys and dont think I could have managed much more.

A.M.  Finished of the week with a good run.  First time that I have felt great at a good pace since the marathon.  I ran about 3 miles on the track before the team got there.  I did some 100s, 200s, and 400s at a decent pace  just to mix things up.  It felt great.  Then we ran a little over 4 miles as a team.  We started off slow, then picked it up about halfway through.  It wasnt a planned pickup.  Things are just flowing for them right now.  We ran the last 2 full miles in 6:51, and 6:28.  It was easy for all of them I think.  We are getting excited for state.
