Chasing my Dreams

Warmed up pretty well. My whole body was  kind of sore at school today.. not sure why. The workout was 3x400's @ 3 seconds faster than 1600 RP with 1 min reco, a 5 minute break, then 4x300's @ 3 seconds faster than RP once again with a minute reco. I hit 65.5, 65.0, and 66.0 on my 400s. My 300's were like 48 48 47 48. It was solid. I had to really fight because my legs were heavy. I did three miles with the Robber after. I was trying to encourage him. My head and legs were pretty tired during that.

Up late last night after going to Logan's musical and then having to throw together my rough draft for CE English 1010. I need better sleep, it would help me out so much during the day. 

It was super windy today, which gave me a pretty decent workout. I ran 6 miles around 6:40 average. I was cruising go against the wind though.. After I changed into my kinvaras and did 3x150 finishes. 

I got into the Invited 3200 for the Davis Invite this weekend. I am going to run under 9:50 with that kind of field. I look to have a really good place that morning in the 1600 as well. It's time to put things together.

Tri meet today, but it wasn't great. I ran the 800. I sat right behind Ryan on the first lap but he ran really slow and we were 64 through 400.... I tried to fight but didn't have it. I do know that that played to the kickers Bryant and Loren who both beat me. I don't even know what I ran... I've just got to enjoy it and do my very best. I jogged around a bit and then ran the first 800 in the 3200 @ mile pace. The first 400 was good in 67 but my next one was a 71 so that hurt me. My legs were tired from the 800. Didn't do a whole lot of cooldown.

No specific workout today. School is still killing me. I ran 35 minutes on the park loop trying to stay on the grass. It helped me take it easy. Syracuse smelled lovely today where I was running though. I got back to the school and did 4 barefoot strides which felt great. Some stretching after.

Easy couple of miles on the dirt with Zach, Fess, and the Robber. Then a couple of relaxed finishes.

I broke down the night before and was not ready to compete. Legs felt good warming up for the 1600. I got out well but then fell apart. It was cold and wet, but I just didn't have it. I cooled down inside and then went home for a while. It stopped raining by the 3200. Conner talked to me beforehand and told me I needed to redeem myself from the not so good mile. I fought really hard in that race but did not have it. My back started to hurt too. I've got to somehow rest and relax in order to be able to compete well the rest of the season. I guess I need this experience though.
