Failure makes me work even harder.

Well I was happy with my new shoes! They were really comfortable, yet light.  It was a nice easy run.  Glad to see Red (Braden) coming out to run with us!

I felt pretty good.  I like the new shoes a lot and am excited for this years cross country season!

It was pretty good today.  We went out towards Maverik and back.  Excited to see some of these guys develop if they work hard!  I know I've said I know why I didn't do well before, but this time I'm a 100% positive I got it.  I didn't have confidence in my running abilities or in myself.  I am working on building my confidence this season instead of tearing myself down like I always do.  I am working on being more positive and such!

3 on the grass!  It was a pretty fun run, we kicked a soccer ball for all but one lap (way to lose it at the last second guys)!  I felt good today and I am ready to roll and get into some higher mileage, but I know I should be patient!  I have been doing more core and upper body workouts (the upper body is more of just a strength workout i'm not going to be a cowboy or something) and I think it will pay off in the future.  I have been eating healthier, which helps, but I need to eat more because I have been tired practically all day after my runs.  Next week I'm going to add plyometrics to my workout.  I am ready for cross country and my confidence hasn't been this high since freshmen year! SO excited!!!

Woke up at 7 to run before I helped with a race in provo.  Running in downtown Provo sucks...so many lights, but I finally found a residential to run in so that I didn't have to stop every five feet.  I felt pretty strong today, even though I got to bed at 1 am that day.  I am excited for cross country to come and to finally show how much confidence I have gained!  I am doing better with not tearing myself down like I use to...just building myself up!!!  Didn't run saturday, because I had to set up a race all day.
