Failure makes me work even harder.

We ran out towards the elementary school then out towards the sand mile out by maverick and looped back.  It was a great run.  I had a good time, but my legs were super strained.  They were tight just below the ball of my calf...I stretched afterwards.  I also had thoughts about doing soccer today, but I have decided I will be happier running.

LONG run...we were gonna run on the river trail run but they were fixing it so we went off of it for a while.  My legs were REALLY tight and tired.  As coach holt would say I felt jacked.  Not only was it a long run but the run seemed even longer with me not feeling so good.  I also wasn't as smooth and had trouble not having heavy feet.

Shoe run- It was a good run.  Nothing to complain about.  Still a little tight, but not as bad as yesterday.  We jumped in sanberg (however you spell it) pond and it was FREEZING!!  We came back and did striders, but hunter also needed someone to run with for a while on the track so I ran just a little bit with him.

3 in the morning- woke up late so I ran by myself pretty much the whole run.

7- trail run out by the lava rock...I love running trails because they are not only speed but agility and power.  But the best are long hills on trails...they really prove who is the longest lasting heart and is true power instead of just speed.  I like the feeling of going up a steep, long hill and getting to the top more than running a fast workout. I think that is personal preference....but I think after high school I am going to run trails A LOT they are fun and I think I have the body for it!  I am excited for track though! wrote down all of my goals for track and xc this year on a piece of paper!!

We ran out into the desert today.  Just kinda used our hack-a-meters to guess how far we ran.  It was a really fun run, kinda spontaneous.  Felt good, nothing to complain about.

Today I ran 5 went down towards hunters but turned on the right street before hunters hill...It was a good run, felt a little lethargic today but I still ran about a 7-7:30 pace so it was good.  I didn't eat much before hand just an orange and some cheese cake.  I know its weird but I am REALLY excited to do track workouts and work really hard to reach my goals.
