On wednesday, coach was not able to attend practice, but he specifically told us to warm up and then run for 40 minutes. This was an exciting run because we were free to basically roam the back roads of Howard. We decided to run down Schenk Creek. THe group kind of split off from one another and it turned out to be David, Mitchell, Jerrad, and I in one grouping. We ran down Schenk to the bike trail entrance, where we followed the bike trail back into Howard. We ran back to the school and finished our remaining time on the track. First of all, this run was beautiful! running over the hills into the sunset is so relaxing. It was almost a picturesque rave run. David and I plan to go on more evening runs into the sunset. There is something ominous about it that gives me an adrenaline rush.
Surprisingly, after the run, I was not sore. I think that running at a steady 8 minute pace was almost a lactic washing. This was definitely a good thing, because the crossover to intense training has my legs feeling like they've been destroyed.
