80 min long run with long progression

Nice run with the Varsity boys. Missed Julien. Ran a cool loop out towards Bloomington Hills and back into Washington Fields. Dropped to like 6:45 the last 3 or 4 miles. Finished with 2 F pace 200s. Practiced kicking my feet back because I watched some Olympic races yesterday and they kick really hard and I noticed I don't that much. Overall a good run and felt fine.

Side note: In the locker room, I had just finished getting ready and it was just Parker, Evan, and I. I reached down to grab my backpack but it was under my opened locker, and so I slammed the locker shut because my bag was stuck hooked on it and the locker hit me in the head and I fell on the ground and passed out. Was pretty loopy and out of it for like an hour, but I recovered after doing some hardcore math.

Nice run on the Softball field. Tried some blind running (closing your eyes and running) and had Logan direct me. Pretty scary but I trusted him a lot. Gave up after about a lap and saw like 40 shadows and I just freaked out. Mikey and Nathan were doing it later and their leaders (JD and Dylan) led them into each other and they colided heads hard. That's 3 head injuries in one day so that sucks.
