My Miles

Such a bummer to die thinking at least you ran six, and then you find out that you didn't.:(  This morning was better than expected.  I was thinking nausea big time but I was only tired.  I ran with Mariah and we came in only about 5 minutes behind the varsity, which is pretty good for me.

This afternoon was so nice.  Even with the humidity, I thoroughly enjoyed myself.  We stopped at Arctic Circle and the side of my shin was burning really bad.  We went a bit slower on the way back because my leg was getting worse.  It stopped hurting during weights and then I went to run to my car and couldn't because of my leg.  Josh helped me stretch it, and lots of ice followed.

My legs were so tired.  Even though this was only 4, keeping up a consistent pace was hard. The burning in my calves wasn't as bad, though they were way tender afterwards.

Today was interesting.  The hill was hard, but not to the point that I was dead.  I guess I need to work harder.  I haven't had any completely abnormal pain in my leg today, so that is good.

This afternoon was ridiculously warm.  I held an okay pace, and was able to run it in about 29 minutes. I was able to keep myself motivated by thinking about AC and the loveliness that it holds.

This morning with only 3 on the grass was nice, and for once the striders felt good.

I wasn't able to make the afternoon team practice because I was babysitting, so I was able to go when it started sprinkling around 6:30.  My legs were really tired, so I took it slow and just enjoyed it.

Very first Meat Grinder.  It apparently wasn't the hardest way we could have done it, but I died anyway.  The hardest part was the last two laps of the park.  The grass was so deep and long, and it just seemed to take forever.  My brother sometimes says that it "takes all I have to stay up with them."  Today was one of those days.

Today was my very first Formaster run.  I made it up in 3:02.  The run itself was really nice, the weather being nice and cloudy.  I enjoyed being able to think and relax.
