AM - 17.25 BV/Dirt Mile. Twix and I went out into Buena Vista and loops back through Washington. Then onto the Dirt Mile for practice with a progression run of just over 5.5 miles. The pace dropped from 7:20 to 6:25'ish by the 5th mile and under 6 for the next half. Very solid work from the boys. ?-could they do it without me there keeping track of them? Finished up with some striders. I've actually like the transition of our strider days; it helps me open up the legs and work out some of the stiffness at the end of a harder effort.

"Could they do it without me there keeping track of them?"

No. And even if they could, if the coach didn't see it, it didn't happen.

Yup Rob!

A couple weeks ago they tried while I ran with the girls and ended up sprinting and dying badly... I've learned that most of us (especially HS runners) try to run way too quick way too early.

I regret the days I used to walk during cross country practices just because my friends wanted to.

Nice, Rob. I LOLed when I read that.

Way to whip those boys into shape, Holt.

Burt, if the coach didn't see it, it didn't happen.

The problem is, he did catch us. Now I have to live with that for the rest of my life.
