On the off chance that anyone actually reads this thing, keep this in mind: I'm no professional, just some nut who wants to be in shape some day.

HP ETC
Just off the plane from Portland, Raph and Mere came up to HP to get in some baby time, a solid workout at the HP track, and some tastilicious Greek food from Pithari.
The workout was handed down from Ironside via Trey (a concept that still bothers me since I'm pretty sure Trey never followed any of the track plans I used to send out for Pike [meow!]). All whining aside, it was a pretty solid speed workout and it was fun to get the legs going a bit pre-Chesapeake. I also find it amusing that I had just told a friend earlier that day that I don't do track workouts any more since I've found I get more out of Crossfit-style circuit training.
Anyway, the workout was as follows:

Pike Practice
It's August and Pike's now going full swing. The Jake and I again schlepped to Philly for an 8am start time and once again we all did work in the blazing sun. Today's practice was focused more on application and execution and we did a lot more live play than yesterday.
Practice ran 8am-12pm. Although Ellis attempted to distract us, the Jake and I once again rocked Chipotle in North Brunswick.
