Ran with Luke (one of the high school runners I coach) and started with 2 miles to warm up. Warming up with high schoolers is a joke...they think that 5:30 pace is a warm up. The warm up consisted of almost 1000 feet of climbing. After I was thuroughally exhausted from the warm up we ran 24 minutes of tempo on mostly flat ground. Our pace ranged from 5:10 to 4:45 on the slight downgrade. I felt much better on the tempo than I did during the warm up. Luke was not as fast as I thought he should have been. He seemed fatigued and let me start to gap him. Could be a precursor to overtraining/injury. Cooled down 2 miles at a sane pace.

He was probably tired from the warm-up.

I was just going to ask how Luke was looking this winter - and then I scrolled down to the rest of the entry. How many miles has he been putting in. A kid from Hurricane, Karl, ran a 1:18 at the 1/2 marathon the other week and is looking pretty strong - but he is still a rung below Luke (as is pretty much the rest of 3A).

ps- I coach at Pine View

I just moved back to SLC this week and am looking for folks to train with. I'd enjoy running (or chasing you) from time to time. My email is lmnehring at hotmail
