I got to run for 20 minutes-- so I ran around uvu campus. Up the big long hill leading to the top of campus and back around. I needed to fill a few more minutes so I weaved through the neighborhood close by and back. Then I went on a bike ride by myself on my road bike from Vintage Park, past Bridal Veil Falls and up to Vivian Park and back. It felt good to be by myself today because I was able to go as fast as I needed. I didn't have to wait uup for Allison. (She is always comes and is on a mountain bike vs my road bike which makes it so much harder for her to keep up-- definitely not because I'm faster.. just bike issues ) I think it was  about an hour and 20 minute ride

I have a lot to catch up on.. But today was my longest run yet in for freakin ever!
I woke up to go to practice with the team at 8am at Orem High.. they were doing speed work. I am not allowed to do speed work yet so I got to go to do a 20 min warm-up with them and while they were doing their speed work I did my abs and core workout and once they were done I did a 20 min cool-down with  the team. 40 Whole Minutes!! It felt good and even better because I got to be  with the team again. Leg is feeling better, I can feel some random pain in my right leg still after I run (where it has always hurt but that isn't even where my stress fracture was.. Weird!) Afterwards we went to breakfast at Magleby's and of course.. the best all you can eat french toast with the delicious caramel syrup.. mmmm! Then I went on a 2 hour bike ride with my friends Jaynanne and Katie. It wasn't anything fast but it was fun we went on the provo river trail from this park in Provo all the way down to Utah Lake.. Fun times :)
--Then I got to go see my sister in the hospital with my newest baby nephew!!Carson Randall Peterson.. YAY! Good day eh!

Did warm up to Mountain View High School with the team.. it was their speed work day.
 2 mile tempo run. While they were doing their speed work me and Allison did our abs/core workout (10 min). Then we ran back to the school (cool down with team) then me and Allison went to Golds Gym to bike 12 minutes as hard and fast as we could in place of their 2 mile tempo run. On the run I felt pretty good.. a little hard to breath obviously and just a little hurty down in the lower part of  my right leg (same leg that had stress fracture-- but not same area) but we will see how things go.

Got to run a whole 30 minutes today! I started out with the team.. leadin the pack-- yep that's right.. the gimp in the front :) No but i stuck with the group the whole time but because I get so easily tired now a days I had to play a game to keep my mind off of things.. played some I spy, the alphabet game, and the memory game.. definitely helped keep the mind off of the pain because when it was time for me to turn back at good old 15 minutes and leave the team, I was just running back with Allison and Jessica and it felt so hard to run.. I didn't have the pack to pull me along. So we continued with our games :) It was a good run today.
3.75 miles averaging about 8 min miles.. not fast but alright

 Of course I am not done with my workout though.. I have to get my bike ride of the day in. I went for a ride around orem and then up the canyon on the provo river parkway (I've done this ride so many freakin times.. but it's a good one) It was me and Jaynanne and we went for about and hour and a half. Good ride today.. Biking and Running-- Love It!!

Today I got to run the full time with the team!.. well not as exciting as it seems.. I'm not completely back but they only ran 30 minutes today because they are tapering down for Regionals this weekend in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Since it was so short we just ran around UVU campus. It was fun just being with the team but not that exciting going in circles and more circles around the school.

Yep had to get some bikin in (it's like routine now.. even if I don't have to go that long anymore)-- Bike ride around orem.. today was no intense bike ride it was good. It was me and Jaynanne. I'm glad she likes to come with me so I have a partner.. I used to do all my biking with Allison but now she has moved on to pole vault practice right after our short runs. Today I biked for 50 minutes

I have to totally guess on my miles because I was by myself and my garmin for some odd reason did not turn on and wont charge and plus it was just a 30 minute run so I just kind of ran around. I ran from the athletic center down to lakeside park and down some road and turned around and went back because it wasn't leading me anywhere good so.. 
And for once in forever.. no bike ride today.. we went out as a team to get food for the new bank in salt lake. We did pretty dang good. I'll probably go out on my own just to help some more

Just ran around orem.. from my apartment up past uvu then back down to my apartment.. just a giant loop. Went for 25 minutes.. just on a little jaunter by myself and yep it was freezing!! -- but it felt Great!

Today I ran a 5k (well I think I was just a little 3 miler) but was a sub 4 santa charity race.. so just a little town race. I went with my cousin and I was just going to take it easy cause I really haven't ran fast since I have been out for freakin ever but as soon as they said that there were prizes I was going to win it for sure! So that's basically how it went.. I just out in the back of the pack and ended up taking 1st for the women and 3rd overall. It was a fun little race at Sugar House Park. They actually  didn't know my name even though I registered but to hand out the prizes they called up "mystery girl" and so I just went up ya know. It was all totally worth it-- a free gift certificate for cafe rio.. yep that's right :)
I honestly didn't take it too fast.. I went 7:01 then 7:03 then 6:41 not like it was crazy fast or anything but boy did it  feel so Good! (my leg didn't even hurt while I was running or afterwards today.. yay!!)

Today practice was canceled as a team because they just got back from regionals and we have the "vertical mile" on wednesday. So I ran on my own today.. I just did an out and back up 8th south.. so I got some good uphill for a bit then on the way back some wondrous downhill! I ran for 24 minutes and went just over 3 miles today.
Sadly enough my calves are extremely tight.. just from the little race the other day.. so I took advantage of my resources and got them worked out... can I just say painful! I iced them afterwards and now they feel quite a bit better :)

I'm still stuck in the boat of only being able to go 20-30 min each day this week so.. today I went  20 (just guessin on the miles) and went on an hour cruiser bike ride with Jaynanne and Nelson. It was a trail I have never been on and I had no idea that it was there... it was a paved trail that goes down along Utah Lake... it was cool but can I just say it was freezing. It felt great while I was running, I actually got hot so I was just ridin in shorts and a t-shirt.. yep I thought my hands were going to fall off! Well I survived.. just so you know :)

Today can I just say it was..hmmm... Brutal!! We did the "Vertical Mile" to see how everyone was doing at the end of the season before we took our break (even though it is only a one week long break but ya know). I technically wasn't supposed to run the vertical mile, not for time at least, but when you are with the team and they are all pushing it and you are keeping up with some of them and it feels ok (hurty and hard to breath but ok) then I just had to keep going. I ended up going only 8 seconds slower than the time we did it and the begining of the season and I haven't been able to run fast or hills or nothin for months so in comparison so what I have been able to do.. I did pretty well. I was hackin up my lungs afterwards but ya know how it goes :)

Afterwards I went on a bike ride just extremely slow one. I went with Jaynanne and we went exloring through these neighborhoods and saw some freakin huge houses! I think I saw the biggest house I've ever seen in my life. Today was probably one of my most adventurous and explorative bike rides so that made it fun. We were out just cruisin along forever we kind of forgot what time it was... we went from 2:30 to 4:40 yep that was pretty long but it was fun so I didn't even notice

We are now on our break so we aren't supposed to run for this week so today I went on a bike ride.. yep once again :) Today it was me and Nelson... We did a loop from the school, down onto the provo parkway headed toward utah lake but we got off onto Geneva Rd and looped through a neighborhood and back to uvu. It was fun but a bit chilly. We went for an hour and went about 11.5 miles so it's not like we were flyin I was just takin it easy since we aren't really supposed to do much this week but I had to take advantage of the good weather for it being november eh!

Honestly I had no idea that there was a race going on today.. my friend Bug called me up after I got out of class like 3 hours before the little race started and was like.. hey do you want to run the race with me.. so I just decided to do run it and it was freakin Freezing!! I expected to warm up once I got goin but I was cold the entire race! I ran the first mile with Bug then told her to take off cause I know she can run a lot lot faster than I can at this moment so she did and I wasn't too far behind but She took first and I came in after her taking second. It was actually pretty hilarious watching the guys running this race. We had like the whole army crew from uvu running it and the ones that were by me were determined to not let a girl pass them... it was great. I just kept a pretty constant pace and they would slow down a bit and I was right next to them so they sprint away and it happened over and over.. it was pretty hilarious, i must say :) 

Today was a good old workout in the gym. I went and biked for 30 minutes (8 miles) and did the elliptical for 10 minutes (2 miles). And of course I must throw in a 10 minute core workout.
