Be a Crazy Runner

AM- Easy 3 with some plyos

PM- This workout was way better than last weeks!  I just had a really negative week, last week. I was thinking down on myself like everyday, until Friday for the race. So I did super awful on every one of the workouts.  I wrote on my mirror some positive things, and I say that to myself everyday.  It helps a lot. :)  Today was pretty good!  I was able to keep close to Mia and Ali for most of the 1000.  My times were 3:42, 3:57, 4:11, and 4:02. Also some 300's.  My times for those were 1:02, and :59.  All I wanted for those was to be under a min, the last one was good. :)  Did a cool down and some weights!

AM- easy 3, legs are feeling really tired..

PM- well I thought it was gonna be an easy distance run, but guess not! We had 8 miles with striders.  My legs were really feeling it today.  Even the slightest incline made me exhausted, and made me start breathing hard.  I tried really hard to keep up with the others, but that didn't happen either. They had to stop a few times cuz of me.  I don't know if it really was my body telling me it's tired or if it was my mind.  Either way, I really need to fix it.  I just wish I was up where I am supposed to be, which is improving with Mia and Ali.  I'm the same speed as I was last year, maybe even a little slower. It was the same in XC season too.  Anyways, I'll be done being down on myself.  Today's run was great. :) and I got to stretch with Ali, and get lost coming home with Mia. Pretty fun. :)

AM- Well, I tried to keep up this morning, but ended up running by myself.  It was great.  Did plyos.

PM- So glad it wasn't 800's today! 6 miles sounds way better!  It was still pretty tough with the wind and stuff. Oh and a tiger (Mia) decided to attack Colton and take me down too!! Got a few battle scars to prove that. :)  Anyways, we were able to finish 2 sets and almost finish 3. Like 15 seconds off because of the lights and all the stops we had to do.  Awesome run.

AM- Easy 3 with book stuff!

PM- Easy 4!! With some 200's. We went Fire station backwards.  My legs felt a little better on this run!  They weren't as exhausted.  We stopped at the park since pretty much the whole girls team had to go to the bathroom.  Coach Roberts and some other girls kept on going.  I wanted to wait for Taylor B. so did Meskerem and Josie, but turns out that she was going 3 miles.  So we fell behind too!  It took me a while, but I finally caught up to Mia and Ali!  Then when we were running down the hill, Ali and I sped up and ran together.  We had to stop at a few stop lights, but eventually we all caught up with Coach Roberts and ran as a girl's team and finished together. :) This is what I love!  Running as a team, and not just individuals! It was great! :)  200's were good too!  I worked on my form tons, and relaxed my arms. It felt better to run like that too.  Just in time for tomorrow's race to qualify for BYU. :)
