pm- 3.87 miles/ 30 min E. Well I came to practice but Coach had to talk for a while to the new dudes and girls so I wasnt able to run cause Alli and I had to leave for Drivers ED. Which was actually HORRIBLE!!!! I wanted to die. And I got that wish when I ran in the heat of the afternoon at 2pm. I, no joke, almost passed out at the Maverick by the bridge cause it was so hot and I haven't really hydrated that well. So thats how today went. I was really feeling the soreness in my legs.

WORD OF THE DAY: today's word is "rap" because my older sister and brothers and I just made this rap for her friend and it was so dope! Rap is to talk in a rhythmic manner and making it sound smooth at the same time; also do not get mixed up and think that rap is a genre of music. Totally different. Ex: I went to the store and they had a rap on the radio.

am-Oh what a great run today. I felt way better than yesterday. I drank a lot of water yesterday afternoon and also I just felt better altogether. Had to once again run by myself cause of drivers ed. 

WORD OF THE DAY: todays word is "simulator" because that is what I did today in Driver's Ed and it was quite the thing to do. The things are super old and so the seats are crappy. My butt hurt so bad afterward. Anywho, a Simulator is a thing that is a realistic experience to what you are preparing for. Ex: In the Driver's Education class, you have to do 4 hours of simulators and get an 80%  average to pass.

am- 5.34 miles/ 42 min E. Looped out to Washington. I looped back and went through Sandbergs and it was super weird. 20 vultures just chillin' right at the pond. Anywho, wow I feel great right now! Good run. I just need to go to sleep.

am- 4.71 miles/ 35 min E. I ran over to Harts and then all the way down Industrial and came back up through the park right across from Millcreek High. I went up to the middle school and did striders and then went home. I am seriously suprised with how well I have been feeling. 

WORD OF THE DAY: today's word is "splash" cause that's what I just saw tonight watching the Warriors vs Cavs game! Curry and Thompson are amazing! Wow how bout that defense by Andre Iguodala on Lebron! Man that guy is a beast. Splash means to cause a sound in a liquid, or in this case, the net! Ex: I was just seeing splash from the Warriors in the final stretch!
