Stamina, Speed, Strength, Skill and SPIRIT

4 miles dog pound run. Felt good today but super tight and sore ever since Michigans! I can barely walk without my calves hurting! 400's afterwards which I felt pretty great!

Ran 4 miles (with fartleks) after a looong car ride to American Fork. It was cold but felt good to get my legs stretched out.

My first varsity race! We woke up at 6:30 to a yummy breakfast at Taylor B's Grandparents house. We raced at 8:30 and it was brrr chilly. We ran a 2ish-3ish mile warmup and barely made it to the starting line before the gun went off. We started and I focused on not falling away too far from Aubrey and Liz for the first mile and a half. The last half of the race coach roberts and coach holt told me to catch Liz. So I gave it all that I had the last half and finished right after her. It was a fast race and I liked the course alot. Fun being up there with the team :) Looking forward to racing again in a couple weeks in Arizona!

6-mile run: My legs felt tired today! First 3 miles i didnt feel very good but the last 3 i felt better but just took it slow. Fun running with Megan and Maquel :)

am: a nice 3 miles to artic circle*

pm: we had a hard but good workout today. 2 sets of a 1200, 1000, 800, and 600 with 3 minutes for recovery in between each one. Harts warm/cool. I really pushed myself and felt really good! I tried to stay with Kaelie during these and she helped me push harder. My times were pretty good but I was alot slower on the 2nd set than i had hoped. Overall, great workout!

Four miles to Green Springs- felt really tired today. but good overall.

am: 3*

Time trial! I ran about a mile warm up cuz i was late...but the race felt pretty good. I was just focusing on not letting the gap get big between alli, kaelie, aubrey, and me. 

After the time trial we ran an easy 2 miles plus 4x200's on the track. My legs felt really tight and painful during those 2 miles but I hung in there! :)

4 miles plus striders. I was really tired today but I had fun.

Workout: 1000's today! (Harts warm and cool) 4x1000- I felt really good with these. I'm pretty sure my times were right where they should be: 3:47, 3:46, 3:49, and 3:45. Coach wouldn't tell us how many of these we had to do so I just went out and did my best for each one!

am: 3 miles* dressed warmer but still really cold!

pm: I absolutely loved the run today! :) It was fun-we ran an easy 4 miles to starbucks with striders after which felt good but i realized i really need to roll out my legs!

4 miles into Washington with four 200's. It was great! I am super excited for Arizona! Gonna give it my best!

am: 3 miles* Felt good

Drove a long drive to Flagstaff and when we got  there we ran 4 miles to shake our legs out, really tired.

am: ran a cool 3 miles on a sweet trail! i wasn't feeling my best though :(

pm:  we around the course for about 3 miles then ran some striders. thinking alot about the race.

Afterwards we played some fun games of volleyball which I smoked everyone at :)

Before the race we ran the course for almost 3 miles which is a big warm up for me.

Race: I felt like I had a good race with one of my better times. The gun went off and for the first mile I tried to not let the gap get too big between Aubrey and I. My first mile time was 7:03 which was alright, I was still feeling good. The second mile, I don't know if I pushed as hard as I could've. But I stuck with a small group of girls to help push me. Aubrey got really far ahead of me but I tried to keep her in sight. My 2 mile time was 14:40 or something like that. I'm not quite sure. The last mile I pushed alot harder and passed the small group i was with and started passing more girls. The last 1000 meters or so i was able to pass about 3 or 4 people and finished strong with a 22:55. I am pretty sure thats a new PR for me! Overall great race and our team did good!

This was one of the most hardest and fun run ive done for a long time! For my first time we did the rollercoaster run which was really fun. But the first half I felt really horrible! I think I was just really tired from running over the weekend. I was running really bad but after the rollercoaster part it started to get better. stretched really good afterwards.

1000's today! We started with harts warmup and then began the workout. I started out fine, feeling good, with a time of 3:45. The next one I fell off my group a little bit and ended with a time of 3:51. The third I pushed a little harder, ended with a 3:51 again. The last one I finished strong with a 3:50. We finished with Harts cooldown. Overall, pretty good workout.

am: Mike and I went to the High school and did striders with paul, colton, byron, and abel. IT felt weird doing them before my run. Then I ran 4 to starbucks by myself while mike did 5 to target. I felt so great during this run!

pm: Ran a good pace for 3 miles with Michael. He's not too shabby :) We talked alot about Footlocker. I am so excited for it!

am: Ran an easy 4 miles at my Grandma's house. Weather was great! 

am: ran a mile to Payson High school and then did four 200's on the track. Then ran 3 more which I felt sick cuz I ate so much food yesterday.
