Drove to 6:30 practice. Three of the most dedicated GDS runners were there along with about 15 STA and NCS runners. Amelia, Bhatia, and Bodi all ran the backway while I ran steady down Normanstone and the RCP bike path for 20 minutes, turning around at the P Street exit and returning at a tempo pace. Once back at campus (17 minute return trip) I doubled back and collected a pair of NCS girls from the crest of Normanstone. Added 6 fairly strong striders. Drenched in sweat and the tempo felt controlled (as I mostly worked with STA freshman Andrew), but I was working plenty hard and that final mile-long hill never disappoints to both intimidate and inflict pain.
