Really NOT a race, but loggin' as such. ;) About an hour late start cuz discovered forgot my shoes had go back all the way back home after nearly to trailhead.

On the MTB, brutally warm and humid out there, but today really only day we could attempt it given the busy Fall and Winter schedules.

wassE easily the #MVP on this one, had a great time but damn I am tired, burned 5,161 calories.

Definitely will probably do again sometime...hopefully on a cooler day and maybe, just maybe "train" for it.

DD Have a great ride!!

Free hotel room for the weekend in Lincoln. Slept in which meant it was way too hot. Enjoyed being out with lots of other runners, bikers, & walkers. Kinda ticked that my watch battery was on 5% and couldn't get gps. Must have had a button pressed while it was in my bag.

Too bad the game ended so crappily.

At Pioneers Park on the XC course. Felt better than I thought I would, but still not that great.

6 x 6min tempo w/ 2 min rec jog. Covered almost 12k on the course.

Ran about 1.05 per segment and was pleased with consistency of distance considering terrain.

Warm one. Heavy legs, just wasn't feeling it. Into the wind on the way out so it was a bit warm coming back. The turn around for the mile was at .3, wasn't sure if that was a mistake or what happened. The turn around for the 5k was at a mile. Lead runners turned there, the rest kept going. Most turned back in the same general area. Thought that maybe the lead runners had turned too soon and that's why the course was off but don't think that was the case. Took a while to do awards because they were adjusting the times of those runners who ran the short course to a 5k distance.

Linny It was a hot one! Sounds like the heat got to everyone. Well done getting it done.

XC workout at Coakley Middle School. 6 x 800 at faster than 5k pace on dirt/gravel road and grass with 3 min jog rest. Warm up 2.1 miles at home, 2.5 miles at workout. Cool down 2.3 miles at workout, 1 mile later at Elm Bank. 35 min stretching, sit ups, push ups at home.

Good group: Chris D, Harvey, plus Greg for first few. Hard effort, consistent results, times right where they should be.

Drove to Elm Bank after workout to try to run Jason's cool down with him. Never found him, but stretched my legs out good walking around the fields.

This was a grinder. If it wasn't for that little breeze it would had been miserable. First 10 with Coach, Rachel, and Sarah. After they headed back, I put the next 7 miles at or below 8:00 min/mi. Fully utilized all the water spigots to put my head under. Was really glad when this was finally over. Saw SAS and Di with 4 to go and they only had 1 to go... it took everything in me to not turn around and run back with them. CN sighting as well.

Ran down to the football field to check out the brand new track, long jump, and pole vault runways. Really nice job and its a sweet surface. Mike and I did a lap to check out the land markings and exchange zones. Nice.

Jogged over to the stadium to see the brand new track. I've been complaining about the old broken down one ever since I moved here 8 years ago. But after arriving realized I had nothing in common with this new track. So I ran over to Big Lake and did pickups on the soccer field. I don't need no stinking track to find ndorfnz.
