Field was wet today so we ran two miles around the school.

Mile 1: Around 8 minutes, didn't put much effort into it, felt really comfortable throughout the entire thing.
Mile 2: Around 6:40, put a bit more effort into it but ran at a hard, yet somewhat comfortable pace and sprinted the final couple of yards.

Played some hot box afterwards. You can't tell much of yourself from playing hot box, but I can tell my hands are getting a little worse. I'd say my range went from catching 90% of things in my range to about 85%. Mostly trouble with my left hand, which is understandable but there's no room for imperfection.

My forehand is in pretty good shape. Due to all the stretching I've been doing, I can get pretty good extension and I can release my forehand a good inch from the ground now. This helps a lot with the inside out I throw now, but I'm not sure where the hell my forehand huck went. My backhand is alright as of now, but I throw the quick release backhand way too often, and therefore I sometimes neglect going the extra mile to fake and throw the low backhand break. My backhand huck is really good off-field, but during the game I tend to forget about how I throw it off-field and end up throwing something somewhat floaty and overly OI. So yeah, a couple of things I gotta work on.

Legs are sore as hell, but it's good feeling.
