Hey loyal followers!
Sorry that I have been MIA for quite some time but let me tell you that school being back in session, along with running, XC, & property issues have consumed me!
Here is a recap of the first week of school as far as my running is concerned:
Monday, Aug. 20th:
We did a short run in the canyon across from school. The first week of school we tend to get some more new kids on the team and we we need to keep introducing new runs to the kids. This is what we call "Left Trail" but is now called "Sword Way" according to some new signs that have been put in.

Tuesday, Aug. 21st:
Today we introduced our hurdle drill which basically we do about 2 days a week to keep the hips loose and stretched. We did a warm up that we call the "neighborhood run" down DMH through some houses by Carmel Valley Rd. & back to school. Did hurdles along with some drills for form and flexibility and then we did the Old Carmel Valley Rd. cool down. I added another trip through the neighborhood after practice to get a little extra mileage.

Wednesday, Aug. 22nd:
We did what we call the "3rd light" run today which is a staple for us. We go down DMH, left on Carmel Valley, turn right at the 3rd stop light then connect to a "running" trail behind a development and then finish in the canyon to the stairs.

Thursday, Aug. 23rd:
Today, we went off campus to do the PQ run at Canyonside Park. Ran with the Varsity kids which was a nice change of pace as they are very motivated!

Friday, Aug. 24th:
Today we did what we call the "Torrey Pines" run. We run west on DMH rd. and then go through some houses and enter the canyon right by TP HS and then work our way back to the stairs.

That is the first week of school in a nutshell. Classes seem to be good and I think I have a good group of kids, time will tell! Hope you are all managing to keep cool. I have no air in my house so there have been plenty of days where it is 90-91 degrees (yes, that's inside my house!) when I get home!
I will leave you with a video I show my kids at the beginning of the year. Hope you enjoy it and remember it's message!
