Be a Crazy Runner

AM- I was super out of it today.  For the workout and the vertical jump test.  I got 11 inches for the test.  That is my PW! (Personal Worst)  Aubrey thought of that of that one, I thought it was pretty funny. :)  The workout was bleh... The first 1000 was actually pretty good!  I got 3:54, so it was a little too fast, but I felt pretty good.  The time I was supposed to hit was 4:03.  Second I got 4:04, that was the only one I got close to hitting my time.  Aubrey helped me out with this one, she caught up to me, so I just matched her pace, and we finished it together.  My other times wer 4:08 and 4:14.  I felt light headed and my arms hurt.  I think I pulled a muscle in my arms, or I just run to tight.  I need to learn to relax!  I would tell myself to run faster and to be strong, but all I did was slow down. :\  The 300 I did, I felt like I was going walking speed, I couldn't go any faster!  So I just sat out on the last one.  I think I am just super dehydrated, fatigued, and I don't eat enough.  Taylor and I were quoting the movie "How to Train Your Dragon"  saying that I need to change all of me.  Weights were good.  I'm starting to add more weights. :) 

PM- Well, we made a huge group to go on our afternoon run, but only Stoner, Megan, and I showed.  We met up at the school, and kinda made up our own run.  It was super nice weather when we started, but then it got super hot!  But it was nice, I feel way better than this morning.

AM- Easy 3 and plyos

PM- This workout was the best one I've had for like a month!  I hit my time for every one, except for 2.  But I was only 3 seconds off, so not bad!  I had eight 400's.  My time I was supposed to hit was 1:27 or 1:28, I got 1:27 on most of them, so pretty consistent!  I hit 1:28 on prolly 2 or 3 of them, and 1:31 for 2 of them.  I actually hit my times!  I'm so excited!  I'm so ready to qualify for BYU!  I know I can do it!  I just need to be mentally strong, cuz I am ready physically!

AM- Easy 3.

PM- I decided to go to the track meet at Hurricane, to cheer on Megan.  The weather was nice!  Taylor and I went on a little 2 mile run, and then we went to Dairy Queen for some dinner.  After we ran 2 more miles with Megan.  We were all feeling sick and junk, since we just ate, but that only lasted for about half of a mile.  Did some striders while we waited for Megan to race.  Super nice!

AM- Easy 3.

PM- Race!  I think I did pretty good!  I didn't know what to do with myself, cuz I had no one to pace with!  JP was about 50 meters ahead of me... I just needed Mia!  I always push myself to catch up and run with her, but she wasn't there....  But I did pretty good!  I just need to be 3-4 seconds faster, than I have BYU!  Ahhh! I'm so close!

AM- Easy 3.   Felt a little sluggish....

PM- 6 miles out to Green Springs!  We had a blast! :)  I don't remember the last time we had this much fun on a 6 mile run!  Loved it!

I ran with Mia, Aubrey and Ali.  It was tough!  But my best tempo yet!  I kept up with Mia for the first 12 minutes, then I started thinking that we have 8 more minutes, which made me slow down. :\  But it's better then the one last week!  After the tempo, my legs were so tight!  Like I couldn't even run, so I stopped and stretched, which helped a lot!  And finished my run.  I'm a little beat from this week, glad it's over.
