am--5.5 Did some dirt miles--3 to be exact--at the following paces: 9:20, 9:00, and 8:40. We are trying to learn an easy pace. Somewhere between the last 2, closer to the last one, is probably about where they should be.

am--4.5 Ran down into Hell's Hole w/ Kaylee and JP. The pace was good. I wish we could get more girls believing in themselves, so we could all run together. The boys are running in a pack. Awesome stuff.

am--5.5 Barefoot warm-up then dirt miles--8:20, 8:10, and 7:58. Stuck w/ Kaylee the whole time. Stoner was with us the first 2 laps, and Megan hung w/ us the first and fell off just a bit the second 2. All the girls did well. 

pm--5 Fartlek w/ 1-mile warm-up and 1-mile cool-down. 1 @ 7:30 in 400 meter intervals w/ equal distance recovery. .5 @ 7:00 in 200 meter intervals w/ edr. .25 @ 6:45 in 200 meter intervals w/ edr. Felt good to open up the stride a little.

am--7.5 A nice run up through Green Springs w/ Kaylee and Stoner. The pace still feels a bit brisk for me, maybe it's mental, maybe it's fitness, maybe it's both. Hit a mile of striders afterward. The run worked me but made me better. Looking forward to running on grass tomorrow.

pm--7 When I don't get up and run first thing on Saturdays, it becomes difficult to run. Nevertheless, I ran. In fact, I ran 4 of the 7 miles @ roughly 7:35 pace. Felt good. I watched a History Channel production about Star Wars and the many allusions therein. Fascinating.
