Recovery

Happy Birthday to... ME!

Today was short, fast, and really, really, hard. Our workout was 2x 600, 400, 300, 200, 100, girls at 4:48 pace. Holy poop. On the first set my times were 1:55, 77, 55, 37, and 16. It was tough because our rest was short. On the second set I ran 2:06, 82, 55, 38, and 15. Not so great. I ran a cooldown with Emily up by the library then we ran through the building and came out by the UCCU Center and headed back to the WAC. Weights was on our own today so Vieves and I got it done and I headed home. Birthday dinner at Pizza Pie Cafe tonight! Yay!

Since pretty much everyone is af Conference this week (Good luck to my teammates!!) there's only a few of us this week working with Coach Evans. We drove to the PRT on Geneva Rd and I ran out 3 and back with Emily, Savannah, and Maddie. It was sports bra, spankies, and tanning weather. #WolverineWay. My Jamba Juice of the day was Strawberry Wild.

Today we all drove out to Carterville to do our hills workout. Boys and girls just ran the warmup together, which was pretty fun. I fell back a little bit on first few hills and caught up on the flat recovery, but then Coach Evans told me to raise my arms and swing them back and I was able to stay with the girls instead of falling a few steps back! Emily and I killed it on the way back for the hard flats, it felt great! We did the out and backs twice then cooled down. The gatorade was orange today :) Later we all did our lifting and had a small dance party. Then I went home and took a 3 hour nap. My Jamba earlier was berry blast.

Today I went to the pool and did the usual swim workout with Em, Sav, and Vieves. Later, I went to a spin class with Em and HOLY COW IT WAS AMAZING AND INTENSE. We're going to try to start going to spin every week, we were drenched in sweat but it felt soooo good! My Jamba earlier was peach pleasure.

Today we went up to the parkway at the base of the canyon for tempo. I did a 2 mile warmup with Emily and Brenden, then a 3 mile with Emily and Savannah. We went a 6:40 pace, which hurt but felt good at the same time. We ran a 15 minute cooldown and the gatorade was purple. Strength training today was 20 crab walks (10 each side) front plank, crab walks, side plank, crab walks, side plank, crab walks, back plank, the planks were 1 minute. Now it's time to go home and eat my granola and Greek Yogurt, yum! And my jamba today was a peanut butter mood.
