had our first practice today in nearly 5 months. it was obviously not the same as ever before but it was still so hype seeing everyone and doing a workout together. first 6ppm in awhile, we did it on the xc course and slough. started out alongside eric josh kraemer ryan lucas and charlie. the first mile felt harder than i was expecting and it was 5:37, then the 2 mile was 11:14. i wasn't feeling too great but once we got in the slough it thinned out and I was with josh and kraemer. our 3 mile was around 16:45 i'm pretty sure. I was starting to die and kept telling myself to just stick with them through the slough, but with like 1.5 to go I fell off. the rest was a grind just staying as close as I could but I ended up finishing like 20 seconds behind. was honestly expecting to go a little faster but I'm still okay with this for now. we're all only gonna improve from here. cooled down with josh lucas and ryan then stretched. good day and nice to be back with the boys.
