<![CDATA[Track Tuesday & the First Day of Fall]]>Happy first day of Fall!! This post should be called “Track Tuesday and I Need To Stop Buying Pumpkins”, but I digress. Let’s start with today’s speed work!

New GU flavor: Caramel Macchiato!  If Espresso and Salted Caramel had a baby, it would taste like this.  It’s SO good!

Nashville received the Fall memo and we had awesome cool temps for track!

Gotta love when you show up to track to find baracades…doh!  I got them cleared and we had a great workout.

In honor of the first day of fall and our cooler weather, I did a little pumpkin/corn stalk shopping…
