Cross season is over. I've coached forever, but I've never enjoyed a group as much as this one. That's not hyperbole, that's fact. They are just plain fun, and their personalities mesh almost perfectly. It's a special group.
Though I miss working with them, I'd probably better turn my attention back to taking care of my own fat body. I've ballooned up a bit, no surprise. I can lose the weight, I'm sure of that, but I'm not looking forward to hurting in the low back again. I'm hoping this break from hard training has provided a chance to heal a bit.
I'm going to continue to lift. That's something that has gone well and gives me a positive vibe. How well that meshes into running remains to be seen.
Tried to ride the other night. Went 20 miles, all in aero, then of course my back hurt the next day. I'll ride again, but I won't ride aero. I'll see how that works.
Tomorrow night is conference night at school, so I won't run. I will pick it up Wednesday. Run or ride Thursday morning?
