Fun run today. Extremely nostalgic. My original warm up was around the softball fields into the track, but the gate was locked. So then I ran around the baseball fields, softball fields, soccer fields, down to Ashley, the courts, everywhere in the vicinity. I was having really vivid flashbacks of high school throughout the years, those of lost friends, hardships, good memories... but mainly I remembered morning practice. There's just something about waking up at 5:30 every morning to go on a run with the team that just fills me with an indescribable feeling. All of the seniors on the blog are talking about how weird it feels and how sad they are about graduating, I haven't felt anything like that which worries me. It'll probs hit in one huge wave and I'll have a mental breakdown. Lol. Anyway probs did at least a three mile warmup, then did a 400 repeat on the grass field we did for XC. Ran a 60, which is a PR there for me, and I had the CR anyway. Then did 2x(300,200,100). First time I ran normally, then drank a bottle before the repeats on the next set. Ran 46, 28, 13, and 46, 27, 12. Cooldown for 8. I ran to the tennis fields, through the auto shops and fields, past the UTC, everywhere. Last run at Uintah as a high schooler.
I'm currently ranked 4th in the mileage board this year out of HS boys, behind Connor, Cason, and Hell Raiser. Once my break ends I'm going for #1
