Running!

I did a speed workout at the track, I believe the same thing the team did yesterday. I was kind of sore, I think it is because I wore my orthodics on Thursday. I am not going to wear them again before region. I did a 2x800, 2x400, 5x200, and 5x100 with times about 5 seconds slower than my normal ones.

I felt pretty darn good today.  We did an easy workout, 4 400s w/90 second recovery, mine were 86's, and then a 200 at 35. 

Easy run in the morning.  I'm excited for regions tomorrow!

I had a good race and PRd by 3 seconds. 

One mile warmup, one mile speed changes.  I started the race in 7 behind two girls from Murray.  Then one of them dropped back, and on the third lap I passed the other one.  I probably should have drafted her for a little longer because I could definately feel the wind coming around the next few times.  She passed me in the last lap and outkicked me, but I was still in 6th so I'm going to state!  I did a half mile cooldown with Susannah.

4 easy miles in the morning

Race for the Cure was huge this year!  About the first half mile I was weaving through walkers, I thought I started up far enough but I guess not.  Then I took it easy to the finish, I didn't want to push too hard because state is in a week.

Later I did 3 easy miles with my dad

After the AP test I went on a run on Shoreline with Susannah and Caroline.  It felt really good, ahhh...

We did an easy speed workout for track practice.  I did 4 200s at 39, 39, 39, 37 and a 400 at 1:25.  Then Susannah and I ran to the gully and back for a cooldown.

One mile warmup, one mile speed changes.  Then 3 laps of fast straightaways, followed by 3 of curves, then half a mile cooldown.

To Shriners and back, good easy run

1 and a half miles warm up, 8 strides, and 1 mile cooldown.  State is in two days, and then it's xc season!

1 and 1/2 easy miles and then strides.  State is tomorrow!

It was not the best race.  I had a strategy that I would stay behind the girl from Murray and push past her when there was 800 left- which I did.  She has a really good kick though, and outkicked me at the finish.  I should have passed her sooner so I could get some more distance on her, because the first mile felt too easy.  But, it's a learning experience.  I'm looking forward to xc season!

I ran with my orthotics in the morning and I've been pretty sore the rest of the day.

I ran up the canyon with my dad and Lisa- it was quite the hill... It was really fun but on the way back down I got a side ache.

I wore the orthotics and felt no ill effects, yay!  We'll see how my calves are feeling tomorrow!

I was a little sore, but not as bad as it's been before.

I ran with Susannah, so I pushed a little harder for an easy run than usual.  Today was really, really hot.  I wore my orthotics and got a little sore toward the end but other than that they were fine, yay!
