Spring Mill after all

Ladies,

Thank Coach Jo. Without her, Spring Mill would not have happened. As it worked out, it was the perfect day to be there and we had a perfectly good workout. I wish we could do it all the time. If we were the Mitchell team we might, but we're not, so we can't.

It was great to be able to break into groups when necessary. I'm glad we could send girls out in groups alone as well... that allows me to work through the group and get to see everyone run a bit. Helps me be a better coach!

For those of you that didn't do the Donaldson part, you missed the long series of stairs that lead from the cave to the campground parking lot. You also missed Alli's expression when I suggested we go down and do it again. I was just about to take us back down and I rethought it. Everyone is healthy right now. Last thing in the world we needed to do was go back down and cause a problem. Let well enough alone, thought I.

We did get some good roly-poly on Trail 3 near the end. It's not particularly tough unless you run it hard, which we did in places. All the girls did well. Alli in particular wasn't going to allow any daylight between us as the run went on. That was pretty consistent all practice.

I'm sorry Wendy's wasn't open. Not for you... for ME! I love Wendy's, and I LOVE their frosties! Alas, it was not to be (and I didn't much appreciate the tone from the semi-snotty worker).

Car wash tomorrow. If you can be there, be there. If you can't, don't. We'll be fine either way.
