RACES
The clock was Kevin's only opponent at the St. Rita's 5k on Saturday, in more ways that one. Due to a lengthy delay on the yellow line, Kevin arrived on the starting line less than a minute before the gun went off, and had no warmup. But once the race started it was smooth sailing as Kevin ran unchallenged for the win in 15:10, which was a course record. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that if Kevin had been able to warm up, and if there was someone within 90 seconds of him, Kevin would have run a tad faster. In the women's race, Tina ran a very solid 18:31, and Elyse made her long awaited return to racing. While Elyse's result was not stellar, it was a welcome first step in her comeback from injury. Finally, at the Gettysburg XC Invitational, Dickson returned to the scene of his collegiate glory to run a strong 27:20.
WORKOUT
We're at BCC this week for our normal 7:15 start, so meet for the warmup at 6:30.
We'll have practice on Saturday, and the plan is to transition to actual workouts on the grass, as opposed to tempos. The big races are sneaking up on us fast, so it's about time to get down to business.
I'll send the women's workout separately.
See you out there on Wednesday.
