Today went pretty ordinarily, but cross country practice was definitely interesting. Yesterday, my coach told us that we were going to use the weight room from 3:30 until 4:00. So my team mates and I are waiting in the hallway waiting for my coach to get there since we are not allowed to use the weight room without a coach or some kind of supervision present for safety reasons. 3:20 and then 3:25 roll around and Coach isn't there. We are used to our coaches running late since they have other jobs. 3:30 come around, and we decide that since others are already in the weight room and since someone volunteered to supervise until our coach get there, it should be fine to do our warmups and ladder drills until one of our coaches get there. We ended up doing this for half of the time that we could be in there since we only had half an hour, and we decide that we can do things that all of us had done before with weights as long as we use a weight that we know we can use safely. One of my coaches (the assistant coach) got there at around 3:50, and we ended up sort of rushing to finish up. She then had us do some core work, which I actually kind of like. We then went on a run, and I don't know when my head coach got there, but he was there when we finished our run and were getting ready to stretch as a cool down.
