Comments:
Pretty interesting run today. It was the first run back with the team. I did a Giles yesterday but had to cut it a little short to keep the mileage lower. Today we did the full one. Ran Ian and a few frosh. There was also another new 8th grader ! We have a bunch of them. I asked them why they all joined for the summer and I guess there was an announcement on the loud speaker asking anyone in the school to join. Anyways we started off at a good pace and I was just glad to get back. Me Ian and Ben ran together, and he other 3 guys were behind a little. The new kid stayed up pretty well too for his first day. He will be solid. The only problem was in the Giles trails though me and Ian thought we were specific enough, 2 kids got lost. We just got to the top of the hill and we waited for the rest of the guys to catch up. However we called down and they said they were lost. I ran back down the hill to see Garrett lost and Nalin scaling the side of a cliff. We told them to go straight up the hill, I guess they took straight up a little too literally. After that it went all smooth. Ben stuck right with me and Ian and Ian extended at the end. The new kid finished only a little behind us and Nalin and Garrett were a little behind. Did drills and strides then abs, hips, and stretching. Overall good day, but we need more upperclassmen back from vacation if this is gonna work. Me and Ian can't keep running back and forth showing the younger guys where to go. If some JV upperclassmen were here they could show them where to go.
