Last morning run of my high school XC career. Last Arctic Circle run in the dark. I ran semi fast. It was really cold.

1- 3:43

2-4:03

3-4:10

4-4:07

I had a hard time breathing today.

Arctic Circle with Fenja. We ran it slow and talked about who we want to ask to the next dance.

I got my goal!!! I ran under 25. Next race I will get a even better time. I love running at Snow Canyon. My Goal for my next and last high school XC meet is to beat 24:51.

My legs hurt from yesterday. Went on a eazy 3.

AT with Fenja. I ran really well. BUT I fall down on my face and hurt my knee.

We ran 800 repeats. I was just trying to get around the same time each time. I think I did good with that!!!

1-3:45

2-3:47

3-3:56

I hope to do good at region on Wednesday @ Snow Canyon!!!!!

We ran a easy fun run. We ran for 25 mintures just around any where and every where. My group ran though the school most of the time and the round-a-bouts. I love running though the school. It makes me feel good inside.

I made my goal!!! I don't think that I could have had a better finish to my high school running. I placed 8th over all in the  JV race. The race felt hard the whole time, but I just keep pushing and pushing. I love running.

Went on a family run. Ran with my mom (who just ran the marathon) and my little brother (who is a XC runner). It was fun to run with them.

Last XC practice today, but I am going to do winter practice with the team. Fenja and I ran really fast. Fenja need to stop and talk to someone at work, so we did a fartlek right before we stopped. Way bad idea. When we started up again my achilles tendon started to hurt. I keep running. The more I ran the more it started to hurt. By the time we got back to the high school I could bearly walk. Now I am at home icing my achilles tendon. I hope that it will stop hurting so I can run tomorrow.  

Ran with XC team. My achilles tendon hurt when I was running and when I was not running. But I think it is getting better!!!

State XC

Staying off my achilles tendon!!! Starting to feel better!!!

Achilles tendon is still hurting. I think that I am going to run on it on Monday.

Sadies with Mitch W. 

My achilles tendon feels tons better!!!! My ran was great!!!

I ran a slow 5 miles. My legs hurt!!!

I ran a 5 mile loop. I am going to start running with the XC team after school next week.

I ran a fast 5 mile loop with the little bit of XC runners that still come out to ran. The ran felt good. I almost felt like I could run forever. After running I hit the weights. Now my whole body hurts.

AT dog pound. I donated blood yesterday so my run was slow and hard. The fuuny thing was that I thought that I wouldn't even going to be able to tell a difference, but as I ran I could really tell that I donated blood the day before. Hope my next run is better! :-)
