So much depends... on the run you do today!

AM: 3... getting loose again. it was quite quiet, as if we hadn't seen eachother for a week

PM: 8.75 2.5 warm up 2 cool with a work out of 2x1200; 2x1000; 3x800. It was a pretty solid workout splits were (i think, not sure) 3:53, 3:49, 3:12, 3:09, 2:31, 2:29, 2:28. during the 800's i had a bad sideache and there was a 5 mph wind. Bad workout wednesday :)

am: 3

PM: 9.85 with mile stridders. felt pretty good, nothin hurt too bad. stridders were hard to get through though.

AM: 3

PM: work out on the track today. 2x(1600x2; 200x4). with 2 mile warm and cool. splits were: 5:24, 5:28, 31, 32, 32, 31, 5:17, 5:28, 33, 33, 30, 30. first mile was easy and nice to get rolling. next was still good, tried to keep an easy because we weren't trying to kill this workout (was supposed to get 5:30's) 3 mile i went way too fast... i just kind of got caught up in the moment and coach shaw was cheering for me for the first time :)... last one i kept it low and help devio hit a solid last one. 200's flew by.

I'm very ready for the race this weekend and am sure i can run a sub 4:35.

am: 3

PM: 7 with 4x200's. Felt good and fresh.

am: 3

Today i raced the mile and i was pretty exited about it. but as we started to warm up my legs felt really weird like they did last week and i just didn't feel very good, i dont think i got enough warm up in. so at the start of the race i got trapped in pretty far and fell back from the front group pretty fast. after the first 2 laps i kind of gave up and just ran the race leaving a 4:40. so it was a decent time but i know i can go better.

i got to the race 20 min before it started but still got a good mile and a half in. I felt much better this morning and more energetic. i think its because i got a lot more sleep which i haven't had much this week.

the gun went off and i took off pretty fast trying to make it sure i wasn't caught in the pack like yesterday and i ended up 5 feet in front of everyone for the first lap. i felt kind of awkward that lap and slowed down. i learned later that it was because all the fast kids were blocked off at the beginning and it took them a whole lap to get out. so after the first lap i settled in behind Ben, Jake, and tyson and hung on them for another lap. after i got passed by 4 more guys i found a spot right behind them for a good pace group and ran the next 4 laps in good splits. on the 6 lap i started to fall back and coach swore at me to get up there and i did. at that moment i broke free! i now was a racer. i pulled back up to them and our group caught a good 3 seconds on the front group and i felt pretty good. at the final strech i passed a guy but my kick wasn't very good and chuck beat me by a good 2 seconds. I got 6 overall, 3rd for 3A.
