AM- We ran 2.25 miles. We met at Sunnyside park. Then we did 1 lap warm-up, 3 laps of 300 meters fast and 300 meters slow. Then we did 1 lap cooldown.
PM- Today I warmed up we jogged a little bit on the course, and then did some strides. I was a little bit confused about the course going into the race. Started the race and ran the wrong way 4 different times. One of the times I cut about a quarter mile off the race and ended up running 17 something. The course wasn't marked well at all. So after the race, my dad asked me if me or any of the people that followed me wanted to run the boys race to get an accurate time. Two people had followed me, and one wanted to run it again. We ran the boys race. I ran 19:29. It felt pretty good. My legs were tired, but other than that I felt just fine. I was even talking to some people during the race. I think I was 13th in the boys race, but I don't remember for sure. After the race we all played sharks and minnows for our cooldown. That was fun, but not much of a cooldown because the whole point is to run fast enough so you aren't caught. (Hayward 21) |
