Dirt mile progression run. 4 loops (7:42, 7:45, 7:31, 6:59)

At the beginning on the way to the dirt mile I just felt blah. I was tired, but I changed my attitude and I snapped into a good mindset. The first loop was very fast at the beginning. Then we settled into a normal pace. Each was a little faster, after the second7.8 and it felt wonderful. For a bit I stayed in the back to help box in girls so they didnt fall off. On the last lap we picked up a lot. It ended up being a 6:59. I felt great today. It was hard, but great!

55 2 fartlek sets 321 with equal recover and 2 min recover between sets instead of going out to do fartleks, the girls ran on the field like we do when we do 3030s and stuff. It was way fun because we stayed together the whole time. A way solid and a great run

Except my toe! holy mother of pearl, it hurt so dang bad on our run cuz I jammed it into a stupid rock. Ask Ellie how many times I complained about that

55    dirt mile. 4 and a half loops    Felt really good from the get-go. It was fun running with some of the boys today. Roberts ran with us for the first two laps, then the next two he had us do them on our own To help us get the feel for pacing. We had a really solid group for the first four. Then the last half one that I did with with Robert's felt good but the pace slowed a little and we cut across. Super good run
