Another XC example cause i got nothing else


Well this weekend I had to run a meet at punahou, and boy was it fun.  Basically half of the course was a nice comfortable downhill, but there was this one part where it was just an extremely steep hill.  So I was just cruising along around the building during the race, at a pretty slow velocity (keeping my momentum steady), when suddenly I come across this hill.  As soon as I took my first two steps up that hill, I felt my entire body slow down.  My velocity was much lower than it had been just a few seconds ago, and so my change in momentum had been very great.  I climbed up that hill slowly but steadily, only to come across a longer but less steep incline.  Fortunately after that hill, there were many downhills which was when I could accelerate.  Well this weekend was fun with class day, and XC/tennis and everything.  I tried to relax as much as I could seeing as how we probably won't get another long break for a while.
