i specifically intended not to coach ymca basketball this time around. i made an agreement with one of my soccer co-coaches that he take the lead this time and i'll help out--i'll be the assistant for a change. so i get to the team selection and he's not there. so guess what? i got roped into it again. i should have just skipped the whole thing but i wanted my soccer kids to be together as much as possible since i kind of encourage them to sign up. anyway, i'm sure it will work out, and i have fun coaching, it's just that i don't have any time!
today's run was pretty good. 4 miles at 7:43 pace. i wouldn't have imagined that for another year or so. i guess i'm getting faster. too bad my garmin computer data keep reverting to nov 3rd and i have to keep restoring it. unfortunately tonight, it won't recognize yesterday's backup so i lost about 4 days of data. and this has been my best week so far: 4+ on monday, 3.87mi on tuesday, 6.15 wednesday, and 4+ today, all at 8:30 or under. oh well.
i've incorporated some speed work into my routine, mainly the last half mile or so. i've ran it at 7:30 pace, give or take, may not be impressive to the veteran runner, but believe me, i feel like overreaching while i'm running it. it will come with time i'm sure.
tonight was the pacific grove christmas parade. it was a nice night--a clear 47 degrees. met the family because i was busy picking my team. anyway, it was fun to be out...the kinda of fun that you only get in a small town!
