Comments:
Hustled over to AU with Anna after she finished Guys and Dolls rehearsal and I finished day one of parent conferences. Got to AU to find a large crowd of Hoppers looking to run time trials, pace friends, or cheer.
All participants ran PRs. Everyone had at least one teammate beside them on every lap. It was impressive and inspiring. I ran lap #2 of Caleb Stutman-Shaw's 16 (5:17.9), and then I jumped in and ran about the last mile of Aidan Banerjee's terrific 5k. (He ran 18:07 and our pace for my mile was right about 6 flat.) Exciting day, but my lower right back/hip was sore after as it has been for the past couple of weeks. Times for everyone are going up on atheltic.net.

By the way, Caleb's splits for the 1600 were 79.9, 83.7 (2:43.5), 80.7 (4:04.2), 73.7 (5:17.9)... impressive!
