Had to skip track to do the tryouts instead. Kids ran great, had a lot of fun, and we had 5 kids run under 6 minutes for the mile. Only 2 threw up, which may be a record for lowest number on the first day of tryouts.
Ran with Cory (22) and caught up with him about his first marathon, which he ran a 3:33:33- with only 2 training runs over 15 miles. Yikes. He's going to be fast if he decides to work at it. Maybe I can entice him to run on Tuesdays. This was his first run in 23 days.
Again, made a sincere effort to keep my slow miles in the 7:30- 7:55 range, which I have been consistent with since my 5k.
