Life's Swell

MERRY CHRISTMAS!! 

AM- 5.5 with Dad and El. We did the Atkin loop. At first I felt a little sluggish but by the end I felt great and did a quick finish on my own. Christmas runs are the best, you don’t even have to stop to the cross the road cuz no one is out in the morning  

I got a NEW WATCH!!! The vivoactive 3. It is white and beautiful and amazing and it does so much stuff that I have no idea how to work, but nonetheless it is the best watch I ever did own. 

Also, Santa brought us hot chocolate candy canes and at first they sounded disgusting, and I never thought I’d say this, but they are sooo good!!

PM- 1.5 home from my grandparents to get in a few more miles. We are going to play ultimate and I’m pumped cuz we haven’t played for a while and I love that game 

AM- 7.75 Miles. Quite the run considering we lost a 1/4 of the party and couldn’t find them.  Anyways, it was a decent run. We ran out on the dam road and did a slowish tempo for 15 minutes at about 6:50 pace. 

My butt is VERY sore from our very intense game of ultimate yesterday, but my team won so it was worth it. We were winning 5-1 and then the other team somehow got ahead 10-5 and we caught up and won 12-11. It was liiit

PM-1.5 Mile shakeout with bent  I had to beg him to come with me but finally after I annoyed him enough he came with me  

So the HS girls planned a run and I went with el, but no one showed up except for us two. We ended up doing roller coasters which I am definitely ok with cuz I love that run. My legs were real tired today and we went slow so that was nice. We also saw Jose on the river trail when we added on after!

I went to bed at 8:15 yesterday so that was dope!  

PM- 2.5 Miles with myself around the neighborhood. Decent miles. Pretty chill again

I had a very hard time wanting to get out and run today so I just put it off all day. But by the time I finally got out at 7:30 I felt really good!! I ran with Ellie and I just did her workout with her. 60 minutes and 1,1,2,1,3 minute pickups. We ran up the road past Sullivan and up telegraph to Hart’s and flippped. My calves got really really tight about half way and my feet started feeling like your face does when you have a cavity and they numb you and then it starts to unnumb. Ellie made me loosen my shoes and it felt wayyy better, I guess I didn’t realize how tight they were. We made it about 7.5 and then I added on after to make 8.00

I became a ping pong pro today! I played all the day.

I also got the hiccups this morning and they didn’t go away til I ran (apparently that’s the cure I’ve been looking for all my life) but they came back when I stopped  

OOH!! Also we went to THE GREATEST SHOWMAN and it was SOOOOOOO GOOOD! I very much enjoyed it. The best part is when Helen is a tree. Me and El busted up. Plus Zac Efron is real cool 

AM- 5 on mustang pass. Pretty chill today so that was nice. I’m so sad that they ruined the beginning of the trail. They should not be able to put houses on dope trails. Also Ellie had a conversation with some random lady that we thought was a girl who was running With us Mom but it wasn’t. So that was funny 

PM- 2.25 on the Owen loop. great view, good company. 

10 miles with my dad again. We ran from past boulevard warehouse through Hell hole and to my house. It was a good run 

Drove to payson and am staying with Alison. We went ice skating and I biffed it 2 times and it was very cold and wet and everyone laughed at me. It was a good time 

We went to the UVU New Years party with some people from the team and it was seriously so fun. I have never gone so hard at a dance or party and it was liit. My whole body hurts
