Pm -  really short mileage today.  Started out with some handoffs, trying to perfect ours for the medley so we each run the optimal distance.  Then 4 400's, did like 1:14, 1:10, 1:08, 1:03.  Right hip felt uncomfortable on those.  Not really painful but could be better.  After I went in to the trainer and got E stem.  Later it tightened up so I did lots of stretching and yoga.  Hopefully I can hold on this week and it will be good enough to get through 4 races.  Then I'll have two weeks to heal it for good!!!  3.5 miles

Pm -  did 1.5 warm. Then we did some master blasters, basically a bunch of 200's at pretty quick pace.  I went pretty fast which felt pretty good at the moment. Later my butt got tightened up.  The good thing though is that running pretty fast is feeling pretty good. Worked on 4x400 and medley handoffs then cooled 2.25 miles.  4.5 total and then right now im getting e-stem on my but so that feels pretty luscious.

Pm -  did a nice easy run of 4.8 miles.  Also tried to do a bit of speed when we got back, but my hip was not feeling as good today.  We practiced handoffs though.  Getting through state is gonna be tough.  I'm gonna have to dope up on ibuprofen and get warmed up really good.  Hopefully I can race without it messing me up, cuz I'm super feaakin ready to go!!!

Am - did the 1600 meter this morning.  I did a few miles warm and had some ibuprofen and all that.  I felt pretty good.  The race started slow s bit like 1:07.  It was raining a bit and so water was spraying up in my face.  I guess lap 2 was really slow too.  I dunno what the split was though.  I kept a good position through the 3rd lap and then the leaders made a move at 600 to go and we really picked it up.  I just battled the rest of the way and ended up 4th in 4:30.  Not a great time, but I'm happy with how it went.

Pm -  Around 4 I anchored our medley team.  It wasn't too good.  I did ok the first lap, and tried to make a move with a lap to go but nothing came.  I just felt completely exausted.  We ended up getting 5th.

Pm-  came into the 800 very positive.  I got a good warm up and was pretty pumped. Race started and I got out good.  I was into about 3 going into the final lap.  Usually I have so much energy left right here, but I didn't have it.  I tried for the pass, but didn't go any where.  I was kinda just hanging on with 300 to go and coming onto the last 200 I had nothing left.  It was such a horrible feeling, my legs feeling so dead.  Pretty disappointing getting 10th.  

4x400 was better.  We went out and ran like a PR 3:30.  The other teams beasted though and we ended up 8th.  It was a pretty fun time.

Over all it was a good track season.  I had some good PR's in the 800 and 1600.  Hurting my hip really messed with my season at the end, I wonder if things may have been different had that not happened.  But I ended up with a medal at state in 1600 so I can end with that positive.  Cross country with be great to kinda get a new start and get things rolling again.
