halloween running
am:
went out to crown road to set up today's xc scavenger hunt run. i hid 5 containers (each with a different type of candy) on a 2.5 to 3 mile course (hoo koo ko). i ran w/my backpack and just hid the containers behind trees, in bushes, and at major intersections. running out on crown road at 7 am was so peaceful and calm. i didn't run into anyone. it was cool and bright. the temperature was perfect (i was in shorts and a tshirt).
pm:
acted as the sweeper during xc practice. the kids were instructed to run the hoo koo ko trail and look for the 5 hidden halloween containers. after they passed each container i picked it up and put it in my backpack. it was another beautiful run. the temperature was perfect. the atmosphere was very fun. i think everyone had a good time.
my legs in general were tired today. it was nice to do two easy runs.

Ooh, you found a way to combine running and candy. How awesome! That's a great idea for a run, I wish I had thought of that when I was a HS coach. I guess I could try it at the college level, but the enthusiasm level isn't quite the same.
Awesome races lately -- I am constantly impressed with the training and races you do.
