Life's Swell

AM- 2 miles. Wellll, very early this morning/very late last night we were playing night games and we played fugitive. Our spots were 2 miles away from each other and me and Alison ran the whole way. Not the ideal time to run haha but I was gonna split today’s run anyways. 

This week I’m gonna start moving up in mileage :)) 

Later AM- wow I felt awful today. I definitely am dehydrated cuz I have been gone and stuff and not drinking. Anyways my legs felt so tired and I thought we were running like 9:00 minute pace and I felt so bad for Alison cuz I was running awful. Ended up averaging 7:58 which isn’t great but was definitely not as bad as I had anticipated so that was good. 

I chilled a little today. my butt has been hurting a little and i am not letting the issue come back. it was so fetching hot

Am- i went to incredibles with sarah when i got off work so i didnt go to bed til almost 1:00, then me sam and alison ran at 5:30. we did 6 and it was hard but good. 

got in my second sleep cycle in after the run lol and slept for 4 more hours. not usual and definitely not gonna make that a habit

Pm- 2 mile shakeout on my own and then some spikeball with alison max and christian!!!

im at work and its so boring so im blogging. no one has come in in 3 hours. 

i ran a mile and a half and then met sarah at the track, ran 5 more and then i ran home.

idk whats wrong but my legs are soooo tired alllll the time. i feel like for the most part i am getting the sleep i need, and im getting out and going everyday but i am struggling so hard to hit below an 8:00 pace and its so frusterating! 

Anyways, after my run i watched a movie and chilled and now im at my boring job where i do nothing. i feel so bad getting paid to do nothing but there is never anything to do. 

Today honestly was my best run of the summer. it wasnt neccessarily fast or anything, like 8:20 average but i just slept in and chilled for a sec and just went out on my own which i havent done in a while. i didnt worry about pace and i ran to bicent and did some grass loops barefoot and some strides and it felt soo good! I definitely needed one of those days because i havent just felt good on a run in sooo long. it was actually a good motivator and reminder of why i like running so much. There was no one there pushing the pace or making me feel bad for not being able to run 7:00 pace and it was nice. 

A very good run! me and alison drove up the canyon 8 miles and then we ran down. we just kinda chilled and talked and it was a very great run, i enjoyed it alot actually! 7:37 pace average
