The Legend 5 & 10-mile

Haslett was well represented at The Legend trail run this past weekend at Sleepy Hollow State Park. Runners were blessed with a beautiful day to run. For the 5-mile race, Haslett had 1 girl runner and 1 coach finish the race. For the 10-mile race, Haslett had 3 boys, 4 girls, 2 coaches, and 2 parents finish the race. Everyone walked away with a great sense of accomplishment. It was a perfect race to complete before official practice starts on Monday, August 11th. For pictures and official results visit the race's website at http://www.runlegend.com/ We are looking forward to next year's race and having more of the team out.

Thanks to everyone who attended the race. It was so nice to see everyone putting in their best effort and cheering on the runners. It is amazing what the human body can do if you put your mind to it. Keep up the great work!!! For those who ran the 10-mile race, you get 10 days of active recovery.... 1 day of active recovery per mile of racing. Continue with your normal training, but don't worry about your pace. Just run by feel and let your body recover from the hard effort. Give yourself a big pat on the back. We couldn't be more proud.
