PM: 800 repeats!!!

I didn't expect this work out so it was a little wierd running it on a monday!!

But they felt good and strong all up until between the fourth and fifth one I had to go to the bathroom so I hurried to the bathroom and hurried back so i didnt really get a break so my 5th one DROPPED! It was bad.. But I brought it back up on the 6th one. My legs are just soo dead I really hope this was the beginning of tappering! ha 

AM: easy 3 It feels like every step could be my last! My legs KILL. 

PM: easy 5 with Sierra. I am starting to get so frustrated.. I've worked sooooo hard and I am worried I still won't reach my goals. It seems like every where around me natural runners just come out of no where and I still fight for every little bit and it's frustrating cause it makes me wonder if there was a point where I could have given it that one little bit more but I don't really think so, I just hope I can stay strong mentally for Snow Canyon tomorrow and then that combined with tapering will have me ready for region! I'm scared! 

Awesome race!! PR by like a minute. And it felt strong! :) I was SO close to getting the Snow Canyon trio too!! I got 1 but the other two slipped at the very end. That was the bad part, who ever saw my finish. . . It was EMBERASSING I really had nothing left to give and I hit a wall!! Hopefully with fresh legs and saving a little bit more for my finish at region I wont have that happen again. But other than my finish it was an awesome race! :)

AM: NADA!!!

PM: Wow I am so tight from yesterdays race! I HATE the run OUT to green springs! But the way back makes up for it I guess! :) I tried going with Sierra but she was flying and my legs were dead! So I stayed back a little on my own all the way up. Then she made a wrong turn so I got the chance to run up with her a little bit and then we turned around and we were going sooooo fast! Sometimes it scares me when we start going that fast ha and I hope it doesn't kill us for AT tommorow... But it was fun so thats good! :)

 When I got home today I randomly decided to go get racing flats so I went and got some! I am really excited to race in them now!! :)
 

No AM.

PM: Dogpound AT. At the beginning it was sort of sore. Like when your going fast and you want to go faster but you have like no control over your sore legs if you go faster your legs might start slipping out from under you. But after we turned onto the dog pound road it felt a lot better. I really focused on making the end of the AT way fast and strong. I also made sure after I slowed back down to a cool down pace that I stayed strong. At the fence coach didn't say to do a fast finish that I know of but I have really been trying to focus on the finishes after Snow Canyon so I sprinted from the fence in. It felt good.

Sleeping in has been really nice. But its so weird only logging in 4 miles for a day. I am actually starting to get a little mile hungry! But I am pumped for region!
 

Ahhh my hands are frozen so its hard to type.. Just went a little over six today kind of late again. It was dark by the time i finished... Its weird but i think i have grown to really like running in the heat.. I guess thats just what i'm use to.. READY FOR REGIONN!!
