Now that I am done with everything for today I have to say that today was one of the most tiring days I have ever had. I ran this morning with Sasha and Josse for a few miles and then headed back early. Even though I got up at 4:45am to run, I didn't have time to get in more miles because I had to get over to Springville Junior High, where I am doing my student teaching. So, I just ran 7 miles before heading home so that I could eat breakfast and then leave. I had to bike to the Junior High because I don't have a car to use every day, and by the time I got to the school I was beat. For some reason biking takes a lot more out of me than running does. Maybe I just push myself harder. Added on top of this is the fact that I didn't get much sleep despite getting to bed by 10:15 last night. After school let out I biked over to Springville High so that I could run with their Cross Country team, after which I biked back home. All in all, I ended up with 7 miles running this morning in 56:49, as well as 4 miles this afternoon in just under 30 minutes. I also had about 18 miles biking when it is all added up. In the past I have never counted biking miles towards my total mileage, as I have never biked more than a few miles a day. My original plan was to not count them this time around either, however I have now decided that biking miles count. I am tired. I will add an extra 6 miles for the day for the 18 miles biking.
