am- we did mile repeats and i did pretty legit again! i just love running in the morning. so the first one was pretty good, 5:35, and i felt like i was gonna die out the next ones cause my goal time was 5:37 but i just kept pushing and going with Andrew and Matt and it was great! Second repeat was 5:30. i kept feeling great and coach said to push hard on the third and so thats what i did; 5:25!! i am ready to qualify for BYU in the mile. last was great finished right behind Paul; 5:27. altogether a great workout. I'm excited for the next track meet.

pm- easy 3 wid striders, tons of peeps gone cause senior ditch or whatever and all the sprinters didnt go cause of that and the other freshman were lazy and didnt go, except for Josie, Cari and Mitch.

so i was gonna go to team practice but i woke up with swollen eyes and they were completely red. it was scary! so i waited til they were feeling better to run the workout, which was at 7ish. the workout was 600(R),400(R),300(R-3),200(R-5),100(R-2). Goal times were 1:52, 1:14, :53, :32, and :15. i was ten seconds off the first one cause my dog was cutting me off and then blind-side slammed me while i was running on the track. *NOTE= dont bring a dog on your run when your running fast*. all the rest were right on tho and a couple were a second fast.

so we met at the warbys and went running on the trail that goes under the freeway (by the way, that tunnel was soo legit! felt so weird but i wanna do that run again.) and then out into the desert and yeah. on the way back we did a tempo last 1.5 miles at 5:30 pace. I feel great in the morning! after we had breakfast provided by the great Warby parents. It was sooo good food.
