Didn't get my resting HR this morning either. Sleep: 7.5 hours.
With the Conference team, just jogged around the field loop, glad to see all the fans that came up to watch, stretch, drills, "No Pain"

UAA Cross Country Championships, the team went out agressively like we had planned, race did not go out as fast as anticipated, I was toward the back of the pack at around 5:10 for the first mile, had to work my way through the pack to try and stay with the team headed into the woods, got tripped up with some runners going around one of the turns on field loop and nearly fell, made good progress in the back loop which ran faster than anticipated, moving up, cemetery was not fun and did not use the downhill well, outkicked some of the runners that had passed me on the downhill, 33rd place (3rd on the team) my best place at the Conference XC meet, team took 7th ahead of Emory, a disappointing finish but reasonable given the depth and strength of the conference.

Jogged with Tim and Phil to the back loop and cheered on the women's race which was much more spread out than the men's, Justine got All-Conference honors with 5th and the team took 3rd, if Bettina was on the men's team, I would give her the Big Balls award, stretch, abs.
