What I Learned From Saturday...

There are more hills in DeKoevend Park than I thought.

That our training has to mimic our racing more closely.

I sometimes set my expectations a little too high.

That the Sierra Road Race course is no way 5000 meters long.

That too much short speed work is not the best way to get ready for a 5 km race.

The kids who train with WTAFC are some of the toughest kids around.

Walking up Antelope Hill needs to stop.  High knees instead maybe.

It can get hot in Colorado in November.

There really is no substitute for experience.

Getting frustrated and down on yourself is very unproductive.

RollerCoasters tomorrow, Predator Runs on Wednesday and 3000 m Pace Changers Friday.  Tempe is three weeks away, we WILL be ready for it.
