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.

So, I was all ready for the same workout we did last Monday, but guess what. The blog lied. So we actually had 3x1 mile T pace+4x200. I was much happier with that. Our miles were supposed to be like 6:30-6:45. Our splits went 6:28, 6:28, 6:30. With every one, my calves got tighter and tighter.. by the last lap of the last mile, they just wanted to fall off. Also, my ears are stopped up and I couldn't hear anything. You wouldn't think that's that bad, but let me tell you. It's miserable. I couldn't hear anything Coach was saying, and every ten seconds or so, my heart would start pounding in my ears, then fade away again. During the 200's I was okay-ish.. the last one I was finally just like "oh, suck it up." and I went much speedier. Overall, it was a pretty good workout, except it took the entire cool down and then some for me to catch my breath. I really need to ice and roll out to get my legs back.
