I hate Mondays. I just went on a small adventure run with Sarah, Patrick, and the new guy. We ran from the teacher lot along 13th east to 8th south, up to Amanda Ave, over on 15th east to the Bonneville Glen Gulley. We did 2 and a half laps in there and exited at the top of the gulley to go to Sunnyside park. When we pressed the pedestrian button and multiple cars stopped to let us cross, some idiot speeding in a Subaru with a California license plate almost hit us. We ran down to the light and the others went right and I went straight down. They were going to do 5, but I haven't had my inhaler at all today and I didn't get enough sleep. I ran down 8th south to the pyramid staircase and over to the teacher parking lot, where I did a lap and a half around the cars. When I was done, I took a needed nap in Choncho.

Today was nice enough outside that we got to go up to our own track!! We did a 2 lap track warm up with everyone, and I didn't have time to put my shoes on, so I did it barefoot. I put my trainers on during stretches. Then I did a mile warm up with Tania, Stephie, Bill, Becca, and Sarah. After brief stretching, we went on to do 1 mile warm up and 1 mile speed changes. I was ahead so I didn't have a running buddy... For the speed I changed into my flats and did 2 400s, 1:22 and 1:23, and 2 sets of 4 200s with Tania, Stephie, Becca, and Sarah. My times varied, but mostly it was 36 or 37. On the second to last one, I got a 29. Wowsies. I did half a mile cool down to make it 6 miles total. There is no way I'm going to be able to go much more than 12 miles this week. My goal is 20.

Bahh!!! Barely 5 hours of sleep and I was ready to break down. After the track warm up and stretching and meeting and uniforms and setting up the bars around the track, Sarah and I ran up to Sunnyside park for a big loop and back. It was raining, so we left a note in Natalie's car and Sarah begged Papa J to come get us and take us to warmth and chicken roll ups. We went really slow and I was ready to faint, cry, scream, etc.

Did the usual track warm up of 2 laps on the track, stretching, regular drills, and 10 strides on the football field. Then us distance runners brought out the hurdles for the practice meet tomorrow against Judge and Murray... aka no competition.

I went on a 6 mile run with Becca and Sarah. We went up on Sunnyside to 15th east, over to 21st south, a big grass loop in Sugarhouse park, and back along 15th east. On the way back on 15th as we passed Einsteins, I had been jumping on all sorts of things along the run, (rocks, curbs, trees, etc...) And then I just ran faster and got way ahead... I think it was the Access bar Bill gave me before the run. When I got to 9th south and went up, I ran into Susannah, Natalie, and Tay-Tay, so I kept up with them as we ran down Sunnyside and back to the school. First practice meet of the season tomorrow, and first high school dance!

Practice meet against Murray and Judge at East. I did the mile and the 800, but I don't know how to blog multiple races in one day, so I'll usually post whatever one I remember better...

Anyways, I did half a mile warm up with the whole track team, then we all stretched, counting loudly to show how good we are. I then did another half mile of warm up, 1 mile of speed changes, and changed into my spikes. I did some drills with Becca on the football field before we lined up for the race. My first 400 was 1:23, my next one was a 2:57, the next one was a 4:29, and the last one a 6:02. Susannah and Natalie were 1st and 2nd obviously, and I almost got to the Murray girl in front of me... Oh well next time I'll kick pocket.

After the mile I did a half a mile of jogging around so as to recover from the mile while still getting ready for the 800. Susannah once again was 1st, Natalie 3rd, me 4th, Amanda 5th, and close behind her, Sarah, Noami, Angela, Becca, and Noella. Good job team!! Afterwards, I did a half mile cool down with Becca and then all the distance runners cleaned up the hurdles and such so we could hurry up and get ready for Sadie Hawkins. The 2 mile had alot of people in it... Jogging... All from Murray. What a great practice meet!
