Long runs on Sundays were my time of discernment. Translating into the vernacular, that means that I used that time to consider the previous week, from workouts, to classes to whatever happened in the week. The first 30 minutes was normally a time to tell jokes and share a moment of goofiness with a training partner, then, as we picked up the pace and got more into the run, we spoke a bit less. But, thanks to the challenging runs put together by Coach Dan Durante, at half way, after flying along at six minute pace for the first ten miles, we would begin this long, forty to forty-five minute drive up hill after hill. During that time, a well placed four letter word would get a laugh, but we were all trying to breathe.

The long runs made us strong and gave us confidence. Our home courses, up in the Santa Cruz mountains, or in Quicksilver-Almaden Park, both contained hills that would challenge the fittest human and we prided ourselves in that. The course in the Santa Cruz mountains concluded with a 300 meter drive up hill.
