chris and i went up to mcfarland to run this race. we got lucky with the weather and tried to forget how much gas cost and headed to race.
the race course is a about two miles south of the high school, west of 99. we found out that the mcfarland team runs from the school to this course as a warmup each day. we were able to spot the race because of the sea of red warming up at the entrance of the almond orchard.
coach ayon and his team warmly greeted us and told us about the course. it was basic a rectangle that ran through and around the orchards. these orchards are where the team runs daily unless it drives out of town to run in the hills.
the good thing about running in the orchards is that there is some shade and the distances are known because the fields are laid out in nice even half mile and mile intervals.
the race was a quick one and galvin won it in a sub 16 performance. at least 10 runners were under 18 minutes and my son, chris ran 18:15 for the 5k course.
hopefully more bakersfield runners will run the other races in this series this summer.

his splits were 75,81,82,82,83,83,83,81, and 77. he went thru the 1600 in 5:20 which is almost his pr.

DMPW means driller miles per week.
i know i sound like a broken record but mileage is the key to success. sure some run fast without it but high mileage will make you faster.
between xc and track, christopher ran about 40 mpw and took almost 8 minutes off his 10k time (51 to 43). he didnt run fast but he did run long.
i made an excel file tracking our weekly mileage this summer:

well our trip started like many and ended late.
da boys and i got to bhs before 7 am and there was transportation issues.
we had the vans but they didnt leave the keys. half hour later, we were on the road.
our first stop was griffith park where we checked out the pony ride and train ride and then did a 40 minute run on the shaded horse trail.
then we took off for the beach. we ended up at dockweiler beach and spent the day in the surf and sand. then it was time for another run.
we ended the day with a stroll through the venice canals and the boardwalk. venice isnt as wacky as it use to be but it was still entertaining.
then we headed home.
