track this morning at 7am...
the kids had tests...
joseph ran the 800 in 4 mins
nate ran the mile in 7:41
cat ran the mile in 7:36
i am sooooo proud of them!
I ran 5 miles averaging about 10 mins a mile.. I feel GREAT! i think its funny how I dont start feeling good until a few miles in.. why is that?
I cleaned out some boxes from the attic yesterday and found some great photos.. and a notebook that one of my softball coaches wrote about training and playin the game..
here are some quotes:
effort is the most important thing.. to be beaten by a better team is nothing to be ashamed of or saddened by.
you can do no more than your best.. by trying harder in practice to improve on your weaknesses your best changes in a possitive direction
nothing makes a coach feel better than to see hustle in a player. hustle and enthusiasm makes up for lack of natural raw talent

Interesting about only starting to feel good a few miles into a run... Yesterday, I decided at a half mile in that I was going to believe I was on mile 3 of a longer run because this run was to be only 30 minutes. I told my legs and shoulders that this is "mile 3" of THIS run, so loosen up! And I had a great time. Mental.
