I just started college and am a little lost without my xc and track from high school!  But I'm beginning to breach the long-distance scene, which is fantastic!

My first 10k!  Ha, I can't believe that it was my first.  It was a pretty good race, not too hilly, and I feel like I maintained a good pace throughout the race.  I got a silver dollar for winning my age division, and my sister got a medal and a jacket in a raffle.  Onion (ongion) Days were pretty great ;)

4 miles in the morning, we did 2 staggered 300s and some sprints.

6 miles in the afternoon, we went over the course for tomorrow.

The course was really hilly and I couldn't see anyone, but I still felt like I had a good workout.  Bill said not to race it, so I didn't go all out, and it was quite enjoyable.  I passed people on the uphills :) and made sure not to get passed on the downhills.

 I felt pretty good about my race!  I got a lengthy warm up with Natalie and Abigail, and then we did some strides.  I fell down when the race started, but they shot the gun. However, after that, I fell down again, but I got up and kept running, luckily, because they didn't shoot the gun again.  Luckily I wasn't the first to fall down either time- I fell on top of other girls.  It meant that I was passing throughout the race, but that was nice for keeping me mentally tough.  I finished about 10 seconds behind Josephine, which I felt was quite an accomplishment.  That is definitely a PR for the course and, I think, for an xc race for me :)  It went so well because I brought it to the field for BIOTECH.

We also ran the torch.  I only got a little burned.
