Today we ran up telegraph and then towards maverick then loop back past the dirt mile.  It was a fun and good run!  I felt amazing and everything really felt easy (maybe because my fastest pace was 6:30).  But these miles aren't about speed, more about the mileage buildup and creating a base.  This run made me realize I'm ready to role this year, because I have never felt this great going into 2nd or 3rd week of running, because I usually do soccer instead of track.  Even though track wasn't what I wanted, I think it will greatly benefit me this cross country season.  I didn't know how to race track really, but cross country is a different story...I have experience racing xc!  Glad this monday I didn't have to get rid of too much junk from the weekend!

Today we ran on the dirt mile.  It was pretty nice, I felt great!  Even though it seemed everyone was breathing hard, I found it really easy to breath (its been a while with my cough during track that lasted forever)!  I am really excited to do workouts, because I feel great right now and am ready to own cross country this year!

Today we ran out towards the desert past maverick and back.  It was an alright run...I didn't feel terrible, but I didn't feel as good as yesterday.  My breathing was good most of the time,but others it was struggling.  I had to give way more effort today, but that's alright....giving effort isn't a bad thing haha.  First day that we start to bump up mileage...SO excited!

Today we did the grass run.  It was pretty fun.  I felt way better than yesterday....actually I felt perfect!  I was a little offended though when Tyson was saying how ben saarel is gonna beat everyone by 2 min then said "oh wait I forgot mike!"  What the heck??  Just because I had a crappy track season doesn't mean I am worse than michael at cross!!  I am just as good!!  Anyone who thinks otherwise....I'm gonna prove that to you!

Today I ran in beaver...with some nobody...named hunter...im just jake kronging you he's a somebody.  It was a higher altitude so I thought it would be harder to breath but I felt pretty relaxed so I breathed pretty easily.  Just proved I'm ready to ROLL!!!

Today, I was working all day and finally got back around 5.  I was going to wait until it cooled down but I was affraid that wouldn't be until it was dark, so I ran my 3 miles at 6:30...IT WAS FREAKIN' HOT!  I noticed I still had doubts about my ability to run in me, and I think it's due to my frustration and disappointment leftover from track, so I decided to nail this run and get all my frustration out!  I started out at a good pace but about 1/2 mile in I decided to nail it and rain faster than our tempo pace.  I nailed it until about a mile and 1/2 later then I backed down for 400m then started nailing it again until the end.  I know it was suppose to be a nice easy run, but I had to get it out....I ended up feeling relieved and confident afterwards! (Even though at the end I felt like throwing up because of the heat)
