Things we did on todays run: covered our shoes in mud, harnessed or inner mountain goat, wound up on top of Everest or at least it felt like it, ended up in a blizzard in the middle of May stupid Utah, found out how fast you can go if you just shift into neutral, found out that shifting into neutral isn't always a good idea no matter how tempting, found a fridge yes an honest to goodness fridge, shifted into third on a downhill and got the pace down to a sub 4:30 not sure what the official pace was, didn't die, and reminded ourselves why we love XC.

Pretty much one of the greatest runs ever. Shout out to all the guys who ran it with us.

So I ran the root beer mile today.

Full disclosure I don't like soda even on a good day, so you can guess how it went. honestly though I was expecting worse. Here's pretty much how it went:

Got the first two cans down... Threw up the first two cans. Got the third can down. Passed Teapot cause he was throwing up. Got the last can down. Didn't get beat by a girl. And survived.

Official time: *I have no idea, it was sub 10 though*

Summer practice started today! Can't say I was super happy to wake up early, but it was so worth it. We didn't run any but we got some bench mark points for pushups squats pull-ups and stuff. Reminded myself why I don't like arm day, but at least we were doing something. Also talked goals with Jamie afterwards, 15:50 5k here I come. Shout out to my Aiden and his first day of XC. #stupidlysore #worthit

Day two of practice was a party. We actually ran a little today!! emphasis on "a little". Still stupidly sore from yesterday I wish they would turn the spring back on so we can ice. Still confused as to how you can turn a spring off. Anyone want to explain that to me? #summerXC
