AM: 3.5 on redwood 

PM: 2 mile warm up. Then switched shoes and did some strides. We had the 6 minute test. Get as far as you can in 6 minutes. I really like it. I had done it three times previously. Got 1925ish meters, then got 1975ish meters, then last xc season Sean and I broke 5 laps and I got 2010ish meters.

Today I got 2045 ish meters, about half the curve. We switched off pacing laps. Collin led us thru at 70, I led us thru at 2:25, Ryan led us thru at 3:40. We hit the mile at 4:52-53, the same time as when me and sean were running it, I had a better 5th lap this time. With 100 meters to go before we hit the mile is when we started to break the somewhat str8 line of drafting and take off. When I say we, it was ryan, thom, collin, and I. Felt good with 200 to go, crossed the line with 6-7 seconds left. With the switching off pacing and stuff it made it so much more easy and fun and jamie said it looked like a pro race. After we did 1.5 miles barefoot around the baseball/soccer fields. Then Chicken Nugget came out after his ACT prep thing and we did a couple miles and switched off pacing him for his 6 minute test, a 400 at about 75. Jumped in the solw with the twins after.
