AM - Morning AC. Yes! I got up and ran this morning. Ran with Haley and BY. It was slow but still a good run.

PM - Easy 5 miles. Ran DI loop backwards and then to AC. Got an ice cream and ran back, then did a .5 grass loop to get to 5 miles. I forgot to turn my watch on after AC but I knew we were at 3 miles, so I knew what we needed to run. It was really hot today and I was so tired, hopefully I will have some energy for tomorrow.

8x400 repeats. I was very intimidated by these and was not looking forward to them. They ended up not being that bad, actually good. 1, 4, and 8 were at a 5 minute mile goal pace, 1:15. Everything else was at current mile pace 1:20. Jog about 100m between each. 2 mile DI warm up, Windy!

1- 1:13 Under pace, got some confidence.

2- 1:20 Right on pace.

3- 1:18 pushed through.

4- 1:14 Dug with Decker right at the end.

5- 1:17 nice

6- 1:18 sweet

7- 1:19 Started slow but pushed hard to get back up.

8- 1:15 Last one, felt tired but ended up awesome.

1.5miles cool down, up to Harts and back. Very happy about the workout. It wasn't as terrible as I thought and I did really good. Next time we run 400s I'll push all the way through and be faster.

 So sweet.

AM - AC with Decker, BY, Austin, Willy. Ruth, Ashley, and Haley were right behind us. Legs killed the first mile but loosened up. Pretty fast for a morning run.

PM - AT Dog Pound from bank all the way to the school. My legs are pretty sore and tired. Started good with Decker keeping it under 6:10 pace, got to the Dog Pound under 12 minutes. I died on the industrial hills and fell back, still made it to the stop sign at the industrial road at about 17 minutes. Tried to push it to the finish but was still running around 6:30 pace at the end.

Good run today. I am ready for an easy day tomorrow.

AM - Bank run in the morning with some of the team. Really tired so it was a slow run. We had fun jumping over car shadows and kicking a tennis ball the last 1.5 or so.

PM - Ran with Haley at like 5:30. We went up the road, left to the bank and down, left by the church, ran a lap at Panorama and then home. Still pretty tired but ok and my shins are starting to hurt. Time for new shoes!

AM - Thank you Haley for getting me up this morning, I wouldn't have made it. Today was 5 Sunrise Tire hills. I knew I wouldn't beable to run them like last time but really wanted to try and keep them around 2 minutes.

Really good workout today.

PM - Ran with Haley after work. We ran the same run as yesterday. The first mile Haley was feeling sick and I didn't want to leave her. After that we still ran pretty slow. I'm feeling pretty worn out but the week is almost over.

Icing my left knee, it's getting fat again.

Went for my long run today. I thought that it would be closer to 8 but it wasn't and I didn't want to run extra when I got home (*Now it's driving me CRAZY that I didn't). I went up the street and left all the way to Arctic Cirlce and kept going. I went down the road past the outlet malls and target and stuff, nice down hill. Then I went left around Formaster and onto the trails, then up to my house.

It was a pretty good run. It's been a long week, ran pretty good and a lot, and I'm tired. Really need new shoes because my shins are starting to hurt. Glad that I'm done, ready to rest!

I got 45 miles for this week. I think this is a new record for me. It would be cool to get 50, but not this week.
