Alli's running blog

Longest of runs. We went under the new overpass & up turkey farm road. I've been up there lots of times but never ran it, it was tough not gonna lie. But I felt really really good today. I have no idea why, could be the weather, or the easier week last week, or the fact that I didn't really eat lunch today (you'd think that's bad but apparently it works for me?¿) anyway, yeah, I felt really good. I turned around early to get 70, longest run this track season for meh. 3 cheers for that. ALSO me & brianna went & waited like an hour to get free frozen yogurt after & it was worth it to the max oh man. 

Root beer mile. Wowowza. We did 20 minutes warm up then the mile. I drank my first can in approximately 30ish seconds I'd say & got out in a strong 4th girl. Then I couldn't drink the second can for the life of me, I did finish it though & got out on my second lap. With the third can I drank about 2 ounces of it then threw it away & did a lap right before they cut the time. Solid work to everyone. It's always a tough one lol. Then just about 7 minutes to get some more minutes in. BLECK I hate root beer

Normal Wednesday workout with a little baby twist. We did 4x60 sec at critical velocity, 3x60 at tempo, 3x60 at threshold and 4x60 at critical velocity. First we did a warm up of 15 minutes I believe, then the workout. The first 4 were our fastest & felt tough but manageable, then the next 3 felt easy & the next 3 weren't too bad either. The last 4 were tough but easy to push through because there was only 4. Then cool down on the track, we played lots of games. It was a lot of fun(: I felt good about this workout, it was hard but beautiful. 

THEN we went to the pv vs Dixie game THE BEST GAME ON THE WORLD!!!! We won & it was SUCH a GOOD GAME!!!!!!!!! Ah I'm still so happy about it. Then cake at Mitch's house for his bday(:

AM- been a while since I've been to morning, weights + 15 minutes. Nice easy. My legs are tired, tight & beat.

PM- 40 + striders out yonder on a trail I don't know. It was real pretty but man was I tired.

Side note- it's finally hit me that I graduate in SIXTY-FIVE school days..... everything I know is going to be gone & ive been so focused on how excited I am to get out that I'm legitimately having a mental breakdown about this. Pray for alli you guys

Tempo. 15 minutes warm then 25 minutes of tempo. I kinda struggled and fell off the pack a couple times but never too far and I was always able to work my way back up. I even took a turn leading when I felt myself falling off, which I don't usually do. It was quality & really really tough. My body is tired, then some cool
