am- 3.19 miles/ 25 min E. The usual snuffy stuffy!! I need to start doing situps every night

pm- 7.71 miles/ 60 min total; 15min warm then 5x100 striders, then 2x1200 w/3:30min rec & 2x(2x400 w/2min rec, 600 w/4min rec between set), then cool to time. Wow what a hard workout. we did the warmup, then hit the re-to-the-peats! 1200s were supposed to be 3:57s, but I was 4:01 and 4:00. Frustrating. Then the 400s were supposed to be 1:16s and 600s were supposed to be 1:56. I went 1:13, 1:17, then 1:56. Second set was fresh, 1:15, 1:14 and then beasted with the last and got 1:54. I felt refreshed after the 1200s, those were just off. I was scared to go into the pain.....shame. Oh well, ya learn the goods and the bads:) Tough workout, but accomplishing!

pm- 7.25 miles/ 55 min E. Nice chill run. Foremaster. I found a washer, I think that hits my washer collection count to 135? This one was special though, cause I ripped it out of the road!!

WORD OF THE DAY: "busy" for all the crap I have been catching up. The goal is to never get 2.5 days behind again on this blog. Busy is an adjective, describing someone who is "caught up" with something. Ex: I got busy today joining all these random clubs at Club Rush, one being the Vegan Club......hehe yes apparently we have one of those at PVHS.

am- 6.25 miles/ 45 min total; SUU Invite, warmup/cool. So today was a pretty freaking awesome day if you ask me. So the race starts and I was slow getting out. I dont know what it was, I just didnt move. Weird. But eventually I got into position with Mitch, Julien and Carson. We worked together to pass up the Canyon View dudes and Jensen Lambert. Then it was just PV and Dhills and Caleb the new guy from Idaho who runs with Hurricane. Btw he is a cool guy, I hope to get to know him. Anywho, I wanted to go after Bryson but I didnt move at the right time and so I didnt get that chance. Bumma. But I finished in with Mitch and got 7th. Sick race for us, we packed pretty well, but we talked on how we need to improve a few things. But it was still good, we went 4, 6, 7, 8, 9. And Logan was 11 so that was good. Xander had a bad day, he was like 20th i think. Good day, we were 2nd to Dhills, beat us by 4. It was fun, I am pumped for this whole season.
