Well decided I should probably blog again after a while not blogging.

AM- easy 3 and went pretty well, felt good the whole time but a little sore and a headache after.

PM- 4×1600's I went into this not really expecting to do to good, but boy i proved myself wrong. My goal time was 5:35. My times were 5:33, 5:35, 5:31 and 5:31. My first two i was still in the warm up process and did way better than i thought, i was lucky to have preston and cam running with me too. Then the 3rd one i really wanted to get faster so the third lap i just took off past preston and Cam which was a surprise. 4th one i really didn't know how i would do. Cam fell off and Preston didn't start till the 3rd lap. i was having a really hard time staying with, then the fourth lap started and coach said to catch back up to preston because he had gained quite a bit, he said catch up and i said "doubt it, i'm gonna die" in my mind, then he said "Make yourself do it, Make yourself" i don't know what happened but i slowly sped up and didn't even think of it. by the last 100 i was still behind then all thoughts disapeared and i sprinted to the finish surprising myself. I tell this because i really did see the power of not thinking about it, and just to "Let it Go" as the great inspirational song from Frozen states.

AM- easy Artic Circle run

PM- Trail run Tuesday! Went on the Temple Quarry Trail. Fun Fact, today is Jan. 28 and last year when we did this run it was Jan. 29, Coincidence? I think Not!

AM- ran 3 all by my lonesome, in the pouring rain. It was actually quite fun but soaking wet. Did stiders on the track with the water blinding me, but it was probably my favorite run in a long time.

AM- ran the LT tempo with a couple of the guys starting at the sullivan soccer park. It went by pretty fast and I think I hit my time pretty well, couldn't tell because of my dumb Nike watch, but it was a good run.
