I met the East High team at Sunnyside Park.  We ran a 2 mile warm up on the grass.  Then, we ran 6 sets of three minutes on, two minutes off.  We finished up with a two mile cool down. 

I was tired today.  I had a more difficult time holding with the top guys.  I can't tell if I'm just really out of shape, or if they are in a lot better shape than last year.  Regardless, they'll make me better.  I'm happy my body held together for one more day.

Hi Emily, I saw you (and the team) at Liberty Park this morning - I was a little shy to just come up and say hi, but I am pretty sure it was you because I have seen you all at Sugarhouse when you have run from there too (and then I saw on the blog that it was you!).

I have a quick question, do you know if the East High track is open on Saturday? I think it is, but I am not sure ... I know that Highland High is open if worse comes to worse (it is farther from my house).
