Recovery

Ran a 4 mile warm up, 2 laps around Sugarhouse today. Then did 5 400s uphill, plus jogging back, that got to 2.5 miles. I ran a 1 mile cool down on the road. Then felt like being anti-social.

Practice was at JCC today. I despise that trail so much, I've decided I never want to run on it. So I picked my JCC alternative: The elliptical at the SLC Sports Complex. I did that for about half an hour, while reading my boring summer reading book, Jane Eyre. After that half hour, I went into the weight room to do some other things. I didn't really want to use the fancy stuff, so I just grabbed 2 weights and did 3 sets of arms, 1 minute with weight, 1 minute without. After that I did a funky thing Bill showed us back in track(I hate track with a burning firey passion.) season. You lift one weight and move it diagonally back and forth while kindof leaning, I don't know how to describe it. After 3 sets of it on each arm, I did 3 more sets of just arms, because Mom wasn't ready to leave yet. Then we went and waited for 1.5 hours at the bottom of the JCC trail for everybody to finish the 14 mile run. So glad I did the elliptical today!!

3 mile warm up, 4 miles of 800's and half mile cool downs, and 2 more for a cool down. Wheeler Farm.

Started at Sunnyside park. We ran up 8th south to the Zoo, turned right, and onto Wasatch Blvd. I couldn't keep up with anyone except Patrick, so I followed him, giving directions. We were supposed to go on Wasatch blvd until we reached Thunderbird before cutting down to Foothill, but Patti turned down a few streets early but ran into the team, and Bill told us to run back up it and go the other way. When we reached Thunderbird, we ran around looking for the drinking fountain and eventually gave up. Then we ran along Foothill to 13th south, down to 19th east, over to 8th south, and dropped back down to the park where we ate donuts and muffins. It's an okay run...not on my favorites though.

Liberty park today. Since Susannah and I have a race tomorrow, we did a different workout. I only ran 3 laps around the park.

I ran a 2 mile warm up, 3 mile race, and half mile cool down with the Davis girls, because my awesome cousin Michaela is on their XC team, and she's the one who told me about this race. I liked this race alot.
