AM- 4.5 miles easy, 8 laps in lane 8, lower loop, 4 barefoot striders. I also played 4 games of ultimate frizbee in 6th period.

PM- 9 miles in 68 minutes. We were behind by quite a bit until the last 2.5 miles, I'd been trying to pull people along but at that point I just took off. I wasn't feeling good today but I wanted to do the workout right. We actually ended up going faster than we needed too for the last mile, people like really pushing it the last mile. I felt happy with my effort. Mentally and physically I'm breaking down but that's good, it's the only way to get out of my comfort zone and adapt to the workload, thus becoming a better person, and a better runner. I also dropped one of my 4 ap classes so my stress should be decreased a little. Tonight I will just do some homework, relax, maybe nap, and possibly do some sit-ups, maybe a few push ups.
