Well here we go...

4x1000's today. It was a really good workout I hit all the times where I wanted to! Had 4:10, 4:03, 4:00, 3:56. Harts warm and cool and weights afterward.

4 easy miles out on..some trail. It was fun running with all the girls. It was weird cuz in dance we do these "leg swings" there's a fancy word for it but I can't spell it. But I always learned to think about brushing up under your leg instead of using your quads to heave it up. And I started thinking about it while we were climbing the hills. It worked really well! Pretty neat. Who woulda thought you could apply dance to running?

8 miles with 18 minute tempo. Goal time about 6:30 still didn't hit it. But I think I did better today than last week. It's just that steady incline on the way to the boulevard that gets me. Cuz I'm able to push it up there but wears me out and I slow down after. But I made it farther than last week, finished stronger and the mental battle was a lot better too. Might be on this 18 minute tempo for a while but at least I will master it! Ran back with Nicole Liz and Mia, and Mia told us a story about this creepy dude and his dog and then we almost got mauled by this big dog, but then! We saw the cutest fluffier little "pompoochi" puppies. Oh my gash they were so cute. So lots of dogs. Ooh I'm excited for hills tomorrow, I like those much better

AM: easy 3 and then some good elite minds discussion. And I think that book was mine. Just got it yesterday and I'm ardy losing it

PM: old man hills. These were fun. 1x800 and then 2x400's. The 400's are so much better. Had a fun little race with Jaron at the end. Man maaaaaybe I coulda won but I thought the ending was sooner. Just kidding he still woulda won :) Nice run back and then weights afterward. 

3 miles easy to sandbergs. Then striders when we got back. Not much else to say, it was a good run
