This is for you, Coach

awakening from slumber: 5x1000 with 1.5mi warm up and 1mi cool down (about 5.5mi). 1000 times: 3:49,3:54,3:53,3:52,3:51. I need to work on consistency... Stayed up with Frida on the first and was right by her on the next few but when Nicole decided to step it up a notch it freaked me out mentally that i backed down enough to get seprated from frida :( I guess its another learning experiance but overall the work out felt pretty strong but i think i could've pushed it enough to stay up with Frida.

strong sun plus some clouds: I really hope it rains this week. Anywho, 3 miles out to sandburgs. I think it was more than 3 miles though, Roberts was leading us astray. Didn't really jump into the pond but everybody else did. Felt good enough to finish.. the end. PS 9 miles cause of 800 warm up!

AM: 5 miles to target. peachy

PM: 3 miles to artic circle. felt like forever

am: harts warm up, 2x800, 2x400, 8x200, and mile cool down. (6 miles-ish) was able to stay up with Frida and Rachel for the most part. the first few 200s i got behind cause i didn't think i could stay up with them but after Roberts told me to only think about staying up with Frida it actaully helped! Felt really great to actually run with Frida and Rachel. Right after the last 200 it felt like all that pain from the work out just came down on me. such a great feeling. The 200s felt like they were gonna last forever but at the same time they went by fast..

pm: 3 miles to green springs. WINDY! to the club house it was just dandy but on the way back i went blind! okay not really but there was so much dust in the air, it was hard to see. Anyways it felt pretty good i guess.

morning: 3 miles swell

pm: 4 miles (2 mi. on 2450 park) AHH! is it possible that my caves are just gonna rip apart? cause thats how it felt! it hurt even more when i stopped. ahhhh. anywho, so weights and plysos pretty tiring. note to self: start doing some push-ups.. than went into marks room to roll out them legs! goodness! pain is in the brain.. such a lie, its in the legs. on my right thigh it hurt terrible to roll out. It was a different kind of hurt though, like pinching hurt. Wise Kaylee told me to roll it out even more. blah blah blah. so yeah, thats pretty much my day.

morning: 3 miles to artic cirlce

afternoon: 1x1min cruisers, 2x1200 cruisers, 1.5 mi. cool down, striders (6miles) at bloomington hills park. first two work outs, got behind but last one stayed up pretty close. Didn't want to do striders at all cause i was beat.

evening: 2 miles (8ish to 9ish). Runathon!!! fun fun fun fun (: some pretty excited things happened but i can't rememeber much at the moment! fell asleep a wee bit in the bed of the truck so according to kaylee and jp i missed out. It twas fun though!
