Running!

Fartlek in the morning, 3 easy miles in the afternoon

I was feeling kind of fatigued; I think I needed to drink more and my muscles were sore.  However, it's all right for the first race of the season and I hope to improve as we go to more meets.

4.5 miles in the morning, 5 continuous hills

Speed in the afternoon

2000- 9:23, about 7:30 pace

5 400s, 1:25 (I started out a little fast), 1:30, 1:30, 1:29, 1:27

We ran it as a speed workout, 1 mile fast and then fartlek until we finished.  I was feeling kind of sick today.

I felt really great about the run; I was able to push the whole race.  Afterward we had a BBQ :)

An hour and twenty minutes easy.  I went around Sugarhouse Park and I've felt really good all day- no injuries or soreness, etc.

2 300s in the morning

In the afternoon: mile warm-up, mile speed changes

2000 at 9:06 (improved from last week), 1000 at 4:23

4 400s at 1:30, 1:31, 1:28, 1:26

My knee was hurting yesterday, I hoped I'd get over it but it was in a lot of pain this morning too.  I also almost got hit by a bus.

10 hills in the morning. We went on Sunnyside below the school- it was hard, but I worked and felt good about it.

2 laps around Sunnyside in the afternoon, then a 300.  My knee wasn't hurting at all today- I'm glad it was just a two-day problem.

I think I started out too fast, but I was pushing the whole time.  It was hot and I did better than last time on this course, but I hope that I can continue to improve.

4 easy miles

Speed workout.  Mile warm-up, mile speed changes

5 1000s, pack running with Kelsey, Natalie, and Alberto.  We hit:  4:09, 4:20, 4:17, 4:20, and 4:26.  Afterwards I did an 800 and got 3:22

Hills in the morning

I really loved the course, it probably helped that it was short :)  I also really enjoyed running through the stream at the end and the trail in the middle.

Hills in the morning

In the afternoon we did alternating 200s and 400s, racing a partner.  I was with Natalie, we did 5 sets.  My 400s were all under 90s, which I'm pleased with, and I passed Natalie on my 3rd and 5th 200.

I felt like I had a pretty good race, but I got out too fast and I had a hard time keeping up with the group I started with.  Natalie beat me by 9 seconds, I need to push just a little harder!  I was 5th from our team, and we got 3rd overall in 4A.

I was struggling a lot mentally throughout the workout.  I think everyone was having a hard time today, because it was really hot and we had a hard race on Saturday. 

5 miles in the morning

One 800 in the afternoon, 3:14

My birthday!!

Trimeet at Woods Cross, 2 mile race.  It felt really good.
