I had a fun day with my unicycle today...as you prolly know, I'm a
runner, but I broke my foot. but about a week ago I got my cast
off...still can't run yet, so I'm still the team manager so I go to
practice and all. I've of course been riding my coker to practice a
lot lately....
so anyway, whats my point with this story? oh yeah. this week it's
just the varsity squad training for State on Saturday. Today, they ran
Indian miles for four miles, which means that they ran in a line of
about ten people, and the person at the back sprints to the front, and
they do that over and over. it's pretty cool. Coach noticed I have a
cyclometer on my Coker...so, he asked me to ride along with the Varsity
girls team to keep their pace, and tell 'em their time for each mile.
it was fun, and made me feel important!! I wanted to ride with the
varsity guys team, but they had to keep a 5:45/mile pace, and I'm not
quite sure I could keep that for four miles...the girls had to stay
under a 7:00/mile pace, and thats eeeasy for me. their average speed
was 8.8 mph, their first mile was 6:51, and their 2 mile time was
13:30. so yeah...it was a lot of fun, and I just felt like sharing my
story.
ta ta!
