Total: 10 miles

**************************

Thought:

I think I am going to swap things up with Sherm. Instead of doing one mile in the morning with a couple of sprints, I think we will start doing something like this instead:

1. dynamic stretching/active warm-up

2. sprints

3. plyometrics and/or standard resistance training

4. 200-400 meter cool down.

As I was running with him this morning I began thinking how stupid I was being. He is a sprinter, he is built to sprint, he LOVES running sprints, plyo and strength training. Why am I not helping him train to reach his potential? Maybe it is because I am comfortable with distance and scared of speed. But everything in him is a sprinter.

True, I am not a sprinter BUT I do know a lot about the human body and I can research some stuff to at least get him on the path he wants to be on. Then when the time is right I can call in outside help to fine-tune. :)

Happy Thursday, All. :)
