am- 9.75 miles/ 60 min increase pace @ dirt mile w/ striders. Good run, I was suprised at how well I did. I knew that I would probably struggle so I tried to stick myself in the front but not leading unless coach said to. I did end up leading one lap and then I just stuck right behind the leaders the rest. The end of the 5th mile and last half-mile I was really hurting, but I just thought to stick right on Nick and Paul who were leading, and that did the trick. Wow it really helps to have teammates to trust in and rely on to push on. I am soo glad to be back with everybody. Im excited to get back and going and push myself to the limit and fully commit to a great season.
pm- 3.9 miles/ 30 min E. Nice run around the neighborhood and looped it back to get my dog Oreo to run the last 10 minutes.
