Life's Swell

So on our run coach split us up into 2 groups and he put me in the slower one and I was so frustrated. But I talked to him and he just wanted me to take the 50% easy so the workout is good tomorrow. It was the slowest run I’ve done in quite a while and by the end everyone had fizzled out and gone back but me and yolidan. 10 strides after. 

Yayayayay!!! So we split into morning and afternoon groups and for whatever reason I wasnt on either group but coach let me go with the fast group. We did 4x2k’s with one minute rest. From the beginning I told myself I was just gonna gonthe slow end and maintain the pace with Brighton. The range was 7:15-8:00. I hit 7:28,7:42, 7:41, 7:37. Im seriously so happy with it. It was the first XC interval workout I have finished in college!!! And I was in the range and on the last one I was passing ppl that were ahead of me the whole time. AND I RAN GOOD IN THE WORKOUT SO NOW I GET TO RACE AT UVU!!! 

Today was a weird run...So we all started together and at the beginning angie and sharlie and brighton split off and went a different direction, and then a few miles in maddie and sam and alison went a different direction and then with a few miles left julieta and haley went a different direction. so by the end of the 8 miles it was just me morgan and madison. It was a really good run actually! We did dikes to canyon and we werent killing the pace and it felt really good to go 8. Ended up averaging 7:33 pace. tomorrow is on our own

6 miles this morning. its amazing how quick you can go from feeling good to feeling not so good lol. yesterday was the best run ever and today i was dying a little. me morgan haley alison met up to run. 8x30 second pickups with 90 seconds rest in the middle. it was hard cuz we did it up canyon, then a few laps on the track afterwards. it was overall good, gonna shake out a few more in a little while. 

PM- met up with Haley to shakeout. it felt much better than this morning. just did the 2 mile loop and chatted for a while. I really enjoy her company

3 miles warm, strides, k at race pace, 3 starts, 2 mile cool. excited to race tomorrow!

Uvu race today! 

Woke up and drove there at 5:30 in the van. Warm up and then race! Not gonna lie it wasn’t the best race I have ever had but it was definitely better than the road race by a million. They changed the course so we had to go up a hill 3 times rather than 2. It was a hard race but it was a good time. I’m glad I got to go. Shoutout to my teammates who freakin killed it. 

Currently driving home with Christian alison and Nate. We went to the hot pots in Filmore. It was a good time
