Personal:

My mother forced me to start running as a freshman in high school.. and as much as I hate to admit it, I actually ended up liking it. Graduated from Pine View High School in 2013 and, after a yearlong hiatus, I am now running again, this time for USU, where I'm working on a composite Elementary Ed/Deaf Ed major.

Went at 6:30 with Mia dear. We were gonna go 8 miles, so it's a good thing I checked the blog before we went. we had 20 minutes of LT pace, which was like a 6:20 for us. Again, we didn't have a gps because the only one we own is my dad's phone, and we weren't allowed to take it in the rain. But I had a regular watch, and I made a mental note of where I was at 6:20 and 12:40 so I'll drive over there later and find out how far it was. I dont think I was hitting my times though, and Mia was pretty far back, so I stopped us at 15 minutes. This tempo thing is really hard for me. I can do repeats and fartleks and old man hills.. but I can't keep a hard pace consistently for 20 minutes without stoner beside me. Which is dumb, cause it's just like an xc race, only no pressure. I'll keep trying though.  Also, we saw Mr.  Green running! Twice.. but Mia only saw him the second time.

 

So.. I just drove and measured. In the first 6:20, I made it .96 of a mile. In the next 6:20, I made it like .90 of a mile. so whatever that means.

Was it really hard to write two nice comments instead of just directing me to Mia's blog, Coach?
