The Manda's running blog

I ran the Entereise Pioneer Day race. The 5k race was all down. It was rainning right up to the start of the race. Once the race started the rain stopped. Leaving the perfect running weather. I hope to break 24 mintures in a 5k this XC season.

I ran hills with the cross country team. I had a lifeguard thing the night before and I swam a lot. When i ran hills my laegs hurt and I could only run 4 hills.

I run a great 5 miles. It was a bit on the hot side. I hope to keep having good runs. My goal is to run at state cross country.

I ran 4 miles with the XC team. It was a out and back. Most of the time I don't like out and backs, but I really liked the one we did. I think I am becoming a better runner because the run went by fastand and most of my runs feel like they are forever.

I ran 4 miles with the XC team. It was a out and back run. When I went out it felt long, but on the way back it went by faster. It was not my best run. I felt a little sick.

Ran with XC team. We ran the bank run. Went I do longer runs I try to pick a girl on my team that is in front of me and pass her before the end of the run. Today i passed two girls. Ran with Kalley June. I love running with her because we push each other to go faster.

AM

Acrtic Cricle with Annie. I felt like I ran really fast and my legs hurt after.

PM

Anorob Threshold dog pound. My whole body hurt and I tryed to run it fast. Annie passed me and she stayed right in front of me. I ran wacthing her back again.

Acrtic Cricle really slow. On the way out I ran so slow I though I could have walked faster. So, on the way back I ran faster. My legs hurt, but I hope that means I am getting better.

On my warm up I could feel my legs hurtting from the weeks work outs. My race was slow and was the last Pine View JV girl to go across the finsh line. Next race I'll be the first Pine View JV girl across. 

Race was fast but all on grass. I really don't like running on grass. It was my slowest time I have ever had. But I was feeling sick and it was my 2nd meet in two days. I am going to run so fast on Wed. Go Pine View XC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AM

Eazy 3 miles. I ran and talked. Felt a little sick.

PM

2 mile warm up. Did Pyramids 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1000, 800, 600.  Didn't do them that fast. Felt very sick and couldn't push myself. I hope I am feeling better for my race on Wed. I wouldn't run my whole cool down.

Was sick thanks to Ruth and Zac Z

I felt better and was ready to run. The race start was bad for all the girls. We ran on sand stuff and up big hills. I got behind some slow girls up the hills. It made me mad that I could not pass them, because there wasn't any room to go around them. My time was good and the race was fast. I hope to pass more Pine View girls next race.

I ran Arctic Circle and got ice cream. I ran out fast, because I got to pratice late. On the way back the ice cream made me feel a little sick. All in all the run felt really good. I think that I feeling a little better. I am kicking my sickness in the butt.

AM

 Arctic Circle slow. Ran by myself. In the morning it is starting to get on the cold side.

PM

Dog Pound. We had team pictures so everyone wanted to get done with the run and go home. My legs feel like iron. It was so hard to pick my feet up off the ground. Every step hurt. My sickness kicked me in the butt today also. I hope to do well tomorrow in Swiss Days!!!!!

The Swiss Day 5K was fun. My two little brothers Robert and Zack and my little sister Rachel got to run the race with me. I came in before my little brother Zack!!!!!! He was not happy about that, but I was. I did really well and hope to run that fast on Friday for our Ceder meet.

AM

I ran a little over 4 miles really easy. My brother Robert was sick so I ran with my mother. It was a nice time  to talk and get loose.

PM

Was a little late to pratice. We ran miles repeats.

7:17

6:52

When I ended my 2nd one I told myself that if I ran my 3rd one under 7 I didn't have to run any more. But I did it under and ran one more that is why it is so slow.

I ran the bank run easy. My leg hurt from repeats. 

AM

Arctic Circle semi fast. It was cold.

PM

AT ran the first part slow and the middle part fast and the last part really slow.

I ran two warm up laps and 2450. I ran slow but not to slow. I had get home fast so I could do homework cause I have a date with Mich!!!

XC meet in Ceder. Another seasons PR 25:10!!!! I am just getting faster and faster. I hope to run my next race under 25. When I was running my mom and coach Holt were telling me to push it and I would get under 25. That is what put the idea in my head that I could run a few seconds fast and get under 25 next meet.

I want to thank Zac Z and Ruth for letting help light the PV at our homecoming game. There are Pine View's XC team captians for this year. They are the greatest captians ever!!! They have made this year of XC way fun. They are taking Pine View's XC team all the way to STATE this year!!!

Homecoming today!!!!!

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!!!

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! :-)
 

Run 4 miles esay with my mom so we could talk. She has been out of town for the last little while. It felt good to go nice and slow. I wish everyone could have a mom like the one I have.

The run was beautiful and fun. I won money to The Spotted Dog restuarant. But I didn't get a t-shorts that was my size. I got what they had lift and I had to give it to my little sister cause it was to small.

Today I ran a 6 mile loop. I ran up though Green Springs. Saw some of the new house that are being built. I saw Zac Z running. I thought it was funny that he was running towared my house and I was running towards his house. Actually I ran right infront of  his house. I ran with my mom again. Well I tryed to run with her, but I keep leaving her behind. The run was good and I am trying to eat more heathly.  

I got home late last night from the semi final State football game. Pine View won 55 to 24. I slept in and went running a round 9 ish. I can not wait until I am out of high school and can go running around 9 ish every morning.  

12 hour run-a-thon

Ran two warm up laps and then 6 miles with Michelle Judd. The run was pretty fast.

Ran 6 miles with my mom's watch. Don't like the watch cause it told me how far and how fast I went. My ran was not as far as I thought I had to go around my block a few times.  

I have a lot of homework to do before I leave for the state football game so I went for a short run. So here I am on my blog and not doing homework. hahahaha I am runnning the Snow Canyon Half on Saturday. Wish me good luck because I might die. My mom says that I will be okay because I am young. I am not as young as she thinks.  

For my first 3 milestook me about 24 minutes. Which was way way to fast. I think that was about the faster I have ever ran 3 miles. I have ran 2 half before this one and I think this one was the hardest out of all of them because it had more up hill then my other ones.The race also didn't ahve a lot of water stops. My mile pace over all was about 9:35 minutes and I hope to make my next Half Marathon faster by running 9 minutes miles.  

I didn't put in a lot of miles before runnig my half marathon on Saturday, so my leg were hurting bad this week end. Today my ran was slow on the way out and fast on the way back. I am glad that I ran to day, because now my legs feel tons better. Tomorrow I will get more miles in.

I ran with my mom today

I ran with my mom's running group today. It was cold and long.

I ran 5 miles slow. I was going to run more, but the street that I was going to turn down had a big dog is their front yard. I am scared of dogs.

I ran 4 miles with my mom. We ran down to Gold's Gym and worked out a little.

I ran at the golds gym. I ran three and biked three. I like going to the gym. I saw Judd there.

I had a sleep over at ruth's house and we got up early and went running. What I mean when I said we went running is that I watched ruth in front of me until I wouldn't see her any more. Then I saw her again when we both were done.  But it was fun!!!

Today I ran 5 miles with my mom. I think that we had the best talk ever. I love runing with my mom. She is so great. :-)

I went to the gym and ran 3 long miles. I still need to get in more miles. But I am getting a JOB over at bare foot and I coach a basketball team. That makes it hard to find time to run. I don't know how some people do it. You guy are wonderful.

I ran this morning with my mom. We ran to the gym the long way to make it 4 miles. It was so cold out side that I thought my body was going to stop working.  At the gym I ran 2 more miles. I saw Judd and Ally Holt at the gym this morning.

I ran 5 miles this morning at 6 with Christi, Heather and Mik'L. We all meet over at the house of Mik'L. It was early because I stayed out until I almost turned into a pumpkin. We all should meet up again sometime I had so much fun running with everyone. Our over all time was 49:53 and our pace was 9:58. The run felt so good and don't believe what Mik'L said she didn't hold us back.

I ran 5 miles with my mom.

I ran 5 miles with my mom again.

I ran 6 with my mom and her friend. I was cold.

I have been in Idaho. It was to cold up there to run. So my 5 miles I ran  felt like 10 miles.

I ran 8 miles with my mom. Well we ran at the same time. We got in a fight right before the run. So we didn't run together. Sometimes I don't think that she see that I like sending time with her. But everything is good between us now.

I ran with my mom. It was great. We danced or tried to dance on one part of our run. Hahaha! It got cold because the sun went down.
