Today we drove over to the airport hill and ran Temple Quarry trail. It was really good actually. I am not sore at all from yesterday so that was like awesomeness.

Interesting Factoid: I got astigmatism in my right eye which makes it so I gotta wear glasses.

pm- 8.05 miles/ 60 minute-- 10 min warm/ 3x1min tempo pace, 3x1min threshold pace, lap rec, 2(5x30sec CV pace) with lap rec between sets, 3x1min threshold pace, 3x1min tempo pace. 10 min cool. 

Today was pretty nice. All sorts of different paces and stuff. So basically it was to help us get use to paces and also each different pace we focused on a different part of our form to have perfect so that was good. I felt really good today, and the wind was something new but its good, gotta get use to it since its there all the time. All the paces were right on, maybe a little fast so I gotta watch that next time but good workout altogether.

Interesting Factoid: If you cut a grape in half but leave the skin attached at the bottom and put it in a microwave on a plate for like 10 seconds, it will make a little bit of plasma.

pm- 8.37 miles/ 55 minute run with striders.

Nice recovery run today, we ran out into Green Springs and looped it around the edges of the neighborhoods and back. We were just getting to Home Depot when Logans momma drove by with Logan, who literally had just got his wisdom teeth out! Oh man, she pulled over and he talked to us, it was soooo hilarious! He was freaking out about Corbin and Lil Bryan and then Mitch about who he was gonna ask to Jr Prom. haha too good. And on todays run I found 3 washers so that was awesome.

Interesting Factoid: I collect washers (like the little metal rings) on runs and I have been collecting for a year and 4 months and have 270 washers total.
