GOING THE DISTANCE

Am -  2 miles only.  Hip was feeling jacked so I went back and used that extra 15 mins to do some deep hip stretching.

Pm -  4 miles.  I started on our 3*1000m workout.  It started beast with a 3:00.  900 meters through on the second one I had to stop just cause, I can't explain it.  Then I tried to cool a bit.  I attempted a 300 but my hip was not going for it, felt very just weird.  I'm gonna do a lot of yoga tonight and get that crap worked out.  A rough Monday, but it is what it is.  

Am -  right hip felt very tight and weird and it feels like it's affecting the rest of my leg.  No good.  3 miles

Pm -  got in a 2 mile warmup.  Then our workout was 200's at 800 race pace but a few seconds faster.  I ran the first few, my it felt like my hip had just gave out.  Such a horrible and weird and painful feeling.  So I went in the locker and went balls to the walls on a foam roller.  My butt area and stuff is freakin sore.  2.5 miles.

Something that raise hell lately:  my good friend Paul Gaona got back on the blog, also Alli Peterson started again.  And my good friend Jason Hall got a blog as J-word Jason.  Check them out

Am -  Took the morning off to try a help my leg get better.

Pm -  Ran on my own out into the desert after getting home from Las Vegas.  My medical anatomy class went down there for a field trip.  I ran through the desert to the dirt mile, did 2 laps there, then ran home.  Whole right leg just felt really shizzy.  I guess my hip felt a bit looser, but like some tendons and stuff are flippin tight.  I tried to sprint and wow, that doesn't feel good at all.  Both of my soleuses were dope smackin tight too.  My whole body feels like its falling apart and it really sucks.  Just a week ago I felt great.  I did some nice yoga when I got home.  7.75 miles total.

Something that raised hell today:  at CSI in las vegas, they showed us some pics.  one was of a scene where this guy had shot his head with a 30-06 and his head was blasted everywhere, they found pieces of his skull every where and his eyeball on a shed.  Another one was where this lady jumped off a building and got her head decapitated, blood and guts everywhere.  WOW, dunno if im gonna eat great the next few days.  Those pics were literally the most gruesome stuff Ive ever seen.

Am -  did part of a coe workout.  I actually felt good for the first few reps, then it got to fast and my hip hurt.  5.5 total

Pm -  Hip felt really crappy today.  We practiced our hand offs and when I would just go a bit fast it hurt.  And on our easy run it felt very uncomfortable and awkward.  Normally feeling this way, I probably might not race tomorrow.  But it's the medley and my team is counting on me.  Also I gotta help us qualify the 4*400m.  I wish I had more time.  3 miles.

Am -  Went for a nice 2 mile walk while the team did their morning run.  Did it in 27 mins, it was swag and beast.  Got some blood flowin in my legs.

Pm -  Snow Canyon Invite today.  I went over, mainly to watch my teammates race the 1600.  I also got in 5 miles that actually felt pretty good.  I think I will be good to go for the 4x400 tomorrow.  Didn't race at all today.  Skylar's race was nice, he got 4:36-37.  We have a lot of guys right there, who if they have a really good race they could state qualify. Hopefully that can do it.

Something that raised hell today:  the weather.  Dang it was even lightinging so hardcore the meet got canceled for the day after the 400.

Am -  back for the second day of Snow Canyon Invite.  Really rainy still, but not really any wind so that was nice.  Just did the 4x400 today, so I say around for a very long time. The timing system for this meet was so slow, so we didn't end up racing till about 2:30.  I was about to warm up during the 800's about an hour before when I got this excruciating pain in my stomach.  It was so hardcore and I did so much stuff to get rid of it.  Luckily it got better and better till I was feeling pretty good.  So I didn't run as much as I wanted but oh well.  

Our race went pretty beast.  Colton ran awesome to give us the lead after one leg.  Skylar did good, probly the slowest and he got passed.  But then Paul ran beast and with a great handoff between me and him I was in the lead.  I was able to hold canyon view off for the win in 3:30.31 by a second and a half.  It was a good battle with them.  Now we are second in 3A right between DH and canyon view is right there too.  And we finally qualified for state! The race really made my hip hurt a bit and now it's pretty sore.  

Ran a bit when I got home.
