AM- 4 down to the Bank then around to Greensprings and back.  I felt really good today.  That Kenyan video yester was talking about what they focus on form and it was the accronym F.A.S.T.- Focus. Alignment. Stability. Timing (the beat your feet make as they hit).  I really worked on Alignment today and it took sooo much pressure off my body!  I felt light and ready to conquer!  And I feel WAY less tired than usual!  Can't wait...we are going up to camp this afternoon!  Should be sweet!

PM-6 Straight on the main (dirt) road.  Felt pretty good and easy...A lot of guys kept up with us and were looking really strong!

AM- 12.  We went up by the lake then over and down a hill and turned off on a trail which hooked back to the  main road.  There were like 8+ guys with us, pushing the pace, hitting under 7 min miles for the last miles.  I felt amazing until the last 3 miles on the road, which was straight and lasted forever!  By the end of the run, I was tired and my feet killed, but I felt WAY accomplished!

PM-3.  Nice, easy run.  Close to, but under, 9 minute pace.  I felt really good!

AM-6.  Went up on the main road...all uphill!  It actually felt amazing and I think I nailed it!

PM-3.  By the lake and then me, coach, and dave stopped to take a dip!  Felt really good and easy!

 Later, mrs. peterson came and talked about goals and how task oriented goals are better than wanted to just win or beat a person, which you have no control of.  I'm going to apply this to my daily running!

AM- 4 easy.  Me, Coach, Mike and Byron ran a good pace, but for some reason some of the guys weren't feeling good or something, because they were behind us.  But towards the end, Reed and Josh caught up to us!  Felt great, can't wait for this season!

8 w/ 2mile tempo.  First 6 miles was pretty decent (7:28 pace).  Then the last 2 miles was the tempo.  The first mile was good, but I was feeling blah today, because I didn't eat/sleep enough yesterday.  My legs just wouldn't go and I felt like slowing down. (6 min pace).  Then the last mile I didn't have anything left.  I tried to keep the pace, but I really need to take a nap today and eat more!  (6:50 pace).  I'm just going to shake it off and move on!

3-Well, yesterday I played basketball and Michael just hit into the side of my leg really hard and now a legament on the side of the leg.  So, last night on my date with Janzen it hurt.  So, this morning I decided to cut a bit off and wrapped my leg for support.  I had an uncomfortable-slightly hurting.  I think that was due to too tight of wrapping, because after I took it off it felt fine, but I'm gonna rest it and ice it a ton this weekend.  I think I'll be fine...it's not majorly swollen just slight inflammation.  I think it will easily go down by Monday.  I just cut back to make sure.  I also had to stop a couple of times, but once again, just as a precaution.

Pace: Mile 1- 7:26, Mile 2- 7:37, Mile 3- 8:42 (because I stopped and walked for .1 of a mile)
