3 miles in the morning

4 miles easy

ha wow!!!!! 2 hours of sleep.. this was a crazy loopy day!

ohh goodness RACE DAY! nerves all day long!!!!

Race time came and I was so nervous but we took off

i think this was roughly my splits

1:26

1:43

1:49

1:40

I felt good and strong except for the middle 200 of the fourth lap.. When I talked to coach he told me I moved up strong but can't let my last 3 laps slip like that.

the two mile.. What an experience! never ran it before... crazyyy nervous! I started out in the middle of the pack again.. Struggled with getting trapped on the corners a lot throughout the first couple laps.. When everyone settled in though I passed people pretty strong. Then I battled it out with a snow canyon girl pretty much the whole race.. I was ahead... Then she caught me and i worked on catching her.. Caught her and we ran together for a couple laps.. Everytime I went to pass she would pick up and elbow me! ha but I finally shook her off and passed her and one more girl before I finished... 14:29

3 miles in the morning! CRAP! I really dont know what to do about my leg..

6 miles easy.. really long.. my leg struggled bad on hills...

8xbarefoot striders..

I am mentally struggling really bad with this no running thing. It effects everything! I never realized how much a run in the morning can jump start your day and get it started so positive.. Even going to the gym every morning and 2 hours every night isn't doing anything.... I love running.. I dont know how many more days I can be trapped in a gym!

laps.... it was wierd

1 warm up lap, stretched

2 laps, walked one

4 laps, walked one

2 laps, walked one

1/2 a mile of striders

i didnt count the walking as part of my miles.. It was an awesome day to just be out running though! :) can't wait to be better! painful today but the doctor said to expect it..

1 lap warm up, stretched

2 laps, walked 1

5 laps, walked 1

4 laps, stretched

Boring but good.. I've come out of this injury (well not totally out but you know what I mean) with a awesome mind set.. Usually I come out of it really impatient and just ready to get back into the full swing of things.. This time I've come out with a true true passion for running... I just love to be out there with the team (or alone)! I'm not saying I don't care about getting back to being faster! Ha of course! But I think this gave me a clearer mind on the sport and will even drive me to push my self faster and faster during those times when I really just want to let go!
