Life's Swell

50 and strides. I’m really tired today. Like kinda running wise, but mostly sleep wise. Last week was horrible for sleep cuz the meet was so late every night that I didn’t go to bed til about 2:00. And my roommates kept waking up freaking early. So annoyed, but anyways, now my sleep has been a bit off. I was attempting to do hw and told myself I could lay down for a few minutes and I fell asleep on the couch. Then after my run, I showered and laid down for a sec and was out instantly. Hopefully I sleep tonight 

1.5 mile warm, then 7x1000. I was exausted today. My legs were heavy and i was just tired. I really wanted to drop but after 4 paul told me to slow down a bit at the beginning and just finish the workout. Ive had 6-7 really good workouts as well as multiple great races in a row and he said it was about time that a crappy one came along. Anyways. I finished the workout and although it may not have been great, was mentally a win today. Finishing tough, and awful workouts like that are sometimes the most rewarding cuz it teaches me to be tough. 

anyways sometimes i hate having practice before the guys, beucase depending on how our workout goes, coach changes it for the guys. That happened today and none of the 5k/10k guys had to do the k's, they got to do the fast workout and i am JEALOUS.

I’m tired. 

2.7 miles Practice got delayed and delayed cuz lightning. Then eventually cancelled. Wish I coulda known earlier so I could have ran earlier. Was delayed for quite and while and was really busy. Never got back out

Sun- 5.5 body was tired and just let it do its thing,

2 shake

premeet/ workout at BYU. 6x400 @ 80,83,81,81,75,75

warmups and race and cooldowns and stuff.

got out good, one girl took off and no one else was even coming. i thought i had gone out way too hard, but when we crossed the line, we had come through in an 80, which is slower than i had wanted to. the first lap i tried to be careful so i didnt get boxed in, but i realized no one was gonna come up with me, so i just went to the inside of the lane. Then of course 3 u of u girls came right around me so i couldnt get out. i stayed with them for the rest of the race, but i felt so good and wanted to get going a little during the 3rd lap. finally basically stopped, got around them and passed them all with 200 to go. It was a 3 second PR and converts to about a 5:11, but i felt like there was so much more. I guess now i know for next time
