Be a Crazy Runner

Well, this was the saddest 3 miles I've ran in a long time.   It took me 33 minutes and 17 seconds...  My knees kinda' hurt too, but I guess that they hurt every time I don't run for a while then start running again.  And Coach, I won't be at summer practice until Thursday (Youth Conference).

I can tell I haven't ran for a while.  It felt like I raced those three miles today.  I guess it will get easier.  I ran with Maquel for the first mile, then she stopped, so I ran by myself for the last 2 miles.  It was great!  I love summer practice! :)

It was a super nice run.  I stayed up with Rachel and JP for most of the run, I kinda fell behind at the ending.  But it will get easier. :)

Eating right before a run = (equals) no bueno.  I felt complete sick the whole run and had bad cramps.  This 3 miles took me 34 minutes and 28 seconds.  That's super sad.....  I learned my lesson to not eat right before I run.  Yeah.... never doing that again.... I still feel sick. I love running! :)

I'm sorry I couldn't go 4 miles.  I don't know what my deal was today, I was probably dehydrated...  I will drink more water and run 4 miles tomorrow.  Yeah Kids club is tommorow! Woo hoo! :D

I ran 4 miles! I ran with Kaelie and Megan. It was way fun. Kids Club was the greatest! All the little girls are so cute!

I ran with Kaelie G., Kaylee B. (did I spell her name right?), Megan, and Coach Roberts.  It was hard to keep up with them, but I did it!  I feel great..... Though I might feel sore for tomorrow.  :)  I can't wait for XC camp!

I love grass runs.  I ran with Kaylee B., Kaelie G., Coach Roberts, Aubrey, Megan, and Mariah.  It was fun.  I don't know why, but it felt like I had no energy.....  It could be because of the run yesterday.... But I don't know.  Woo hoo!  Summer Practice!:D

I love the grass at Pine View Park!  This run was great.  I ran with Coach Roberts and Kaelie G.  It was a party!  Maquel and Chancie stayed with us for a half a mile, but then they turned back.  I love running at Pine View Park.... We need to run there again.  Hopefully there won't be a dead cat on the road when we run there again. :)

I ran with my dad again.  He's gotten a lot faster.... So I can bearly keep up with him....  And of course I had to go to the bathroom.  But thankfully we ran by some construction and there was a porta-potty there, so I just went to the bathroom there.  After that, I kinda went my own pace, so of course my dad went way ahead of me.  I love running! :D

I really liked today's run.  I ran with Kaelie G., and Taylor Boyer.  But, Taylor Boyer turned around at three miles, so I just ran with Kaelie.  It was a party and a half (quoting Susan).  I didn't really mind that hill, I felt pretty good going up it.  It was great!

Today's run was awesome!  Kaelie and I kept up with the Varsity Girls!  Thanks Rachel for "tying your shoes". :)  I told Kaelie that if she stays with me in running, she will have a really good chance to be on varsity.... but she says she doesn't like the spandex shorts... oh well, it's just one of the things you have to bare through to be on varsity. :D  Kids Club was super fun!  Jason (my little brother) got 4th out of everybody in his race.  I am very proud.  Summer Practice is the best!

Well, I hurt a lot.  It's been a while since the last time I ran 5 miles straight.  It was awesome!  We got lost on the run, so we guessed where to turn around. Taylor and I kinda fell behind... but not too much.  Yeah, I am going to be super sore tomorrow!  Atleast it's a grass run. (and only 4 miles) :D

I ran with Kaylee, Kaelie, Coach Roberts, Megan, Aubrey, and Maquel.  It was super nice.  I love grass runs!  They are the greatest.  I am sore from yesterday.  Ew... we have 6 miles to run tomorrow.....  Aw well, if it makes me a better runner, I will do it.  If my legs are sore after 5 miles, I wonder how they would be after 6 miles...

Well.... That run was awesome!  The hill was for sure easier than it looked.  But I felt great going up it.  Then after that hill, it was all down hill!  (except for the very ending)  I am most like going to be very sore tomorrow, but I stretched a lot.  I loved that run, we should do it again sometime. :D

Ahh!  4 miles!  Ok... I did NOT do that on purpose!  When I was almost home, my garmin said that I had 1 more mile left.  So I decided to take the long way home, but the long way home turned out to be 2 miles, not just one.  I hope that doesn't hurt me too bad.  But the weather was nice.  (except for the very ending... that's when it got REALLY hot!)

Ok... Today's run seemed a little harder than the 5 last week.  It was SO hot!  Kaelie and I were going to die!  When we were almost done with that hill, we started to speed up, because, we were just super excited.  But that made me so super tired... so we took it easy for a little bit of the run.  Kaelie and I ran with Taylor Monett. (Is that how you spell is last name?)  Anyway... He is a way good runner, I mean if he kept up with me and Kaelie, he has to be fast!  I need to drink more water....  expecially since it's going to get hotter and hotter.  I love summer practice! :D

It was a super nice run.  Kaelie and I stayed up with Coach Roberts, Rachel, and Kaylee the whole time!  Rachel didn't have to "tie" her shoes this time! :)  It was hard, but we did it!  Coach forgot to time our first dirt mile, but the second one we got 8:18 ( I really don't know... but it was 8 something...)  I love kids club, it's the greatest!

I didn't feel that great today..... I kinda' had a headache and a stomachache.  But when we passed Erin, that's when I fell behind the most.  But she said to keep on going, so I began to think that I shouldn't be falling behind.  And I pushed myself to catch up to the girls, and I did!  It was awesome, but supah' hard.  I think I'm just way dehydrated.  I need to drink more water.  Thanks Erin!  (sorry if I spelled your name wrong)

Today's run was way better than yesterday's!  I think it's because I drank more water yesterday.  Drinking water really makes a difference!  But I still think I am no drinking enough.  But after running the 4 miles, my hip started to hurt... not a sideache though.... It just hurts.  Then after striders, it hurt even more.  But now, I can bearly walk.  I am limping so bad.  What can I do to help it feel better?

Before I ran today, my hip didn't hurt at all... but right when I started running, it began to hurt again.  Then it started to go away near the end of the run.  Now the pain starting to come back again.  I am going to stretch like crazy.  It was a super nice run.  I about broke my ankle 15+ times.  That was a party.  Coach Roberts was running with Stoner and Mia, but then he decided to be nice and wait for Aubrey and me.  Aubrey is really improving so much!  It was super nice weather today.  But I still need to drink more water.  I need to work on that...  Yeah!  Tomorrow is only 4 miles!
