6.300.000.000.000.006.30

Oh boy, my garmin wouldn't turn on for about 10 minutes just barely, and I was worried about it. But I looked through the manual and found that you can push lap/reset and mode and it will reset the watch.  By the way, it found the satellite signal very quickly this morning. Does anyone know how to make it do that all the time?

Nice run out to Timp View High. My body felt crummy, and I turned around a little bit earlier than I was planning. It worked out well however, because I got back just on time so I could get ready for class (which I ended up not going to...) 8:04 min/mile average pace. My knees hurt, along with my shins. I hate pains and injuries associated with running.

It snowed last night so I went to the indoor track to just be warm and away from ice. 20 laps in 30 minutes, so roughly four miles. Pretty good. My friend Avery was there with another girl on her floor, and I had some fun passing them every couple of laps. They kept on talking about tripping me up, but I evaded their mischievous attempts.

6.550.000.000.000.006.55

Nice 6.5 miles in the afternoon. It was warm to put on the short shorts and run up University and down Timp View Drive. A girl crossed the street 100-150 yards in front of me, and she looked like she was going pretty fast. I decided to catch up and see how fast she was going, but then I had to stay in front of her even though she was booking it at almost 7:00 min/mile. I decided that she must have been on the track or XC team here at BYU.  That pushed me out to 3.25 miles at the 23 minute mark, and I wanted to give myself some extra time to get back now that she wasn't following me. My average pace going out was 7:15. Coming back was 7:46. So 7:30-ish average.

4.220.000.000.000.004.22

I went running with my friend Avery this morning. Nice easy run around campus, but I'm afraid I won't be able to run with her much more. We didn't have much to talk about, and I felt like I was dragging her behind me on a rope. I wanted to just go, but was tethered back with her. Average pace of 8:42.

I went out with my friend Olivia. She hasn't ran for quite some time, so she had some trouble after the first mile. At 15 minutes, she said she would just run back and I could keep on going. Ended up hitting about a 7:28 min/mile pace for the next 3 miles. Pretty good, but my shins are really acting up. I'm ready to go for 10 tomorrow, but worried about if my body can handle it.

Felt like crap today. I slept in until 11 because my roommate woke me up in the middle of the night. I wanted to do 10, but I struggled to even pull off this.
