~:[CH12 - Day 199]:~ Cooling Off

It's been hot lately. I was thinking about canceling our afternoon workout, but by the time we met up, it did cool off slightly. It always tends to do so as we close in on practice time, but the weather's been up, so it's been a little worrisome. Regardless, we survived the day. Boba was the magic key, both in the afternoon when catching up with an alum and after our afternoon practice. These double days are quite tiring sometimes, but it's just these types of moments that add a little more to the day and make them more memorable. While these athletes are out there to train to run, being able to spend time together and enjoy each other's company is even more important. I think that's also why they have such strong bonds even after leaving and I stay connected for years after they leave. By night's end, however, everyone was exhausted as the heat definitely took it's toll on us, however, it couldn't stop us from doing the work we needed to do and also from creating memories that we'll cherish.
