AM:

This morning since I got up late, I only had time to do one mile. Then came home and studied physics for 20 minutes. 

PM:

This afternoon I went to track practice and it was a speed day. We started with the usual 2 laps warm up and then the stretching circle. Then we broke up into our groups. My group was we started with 8 strides of 100 meters, first we did full 100 percent, next was with our arms down till we got to Tony then heavily use the arms, next we did progressively getting faster, then finally we did full 100 percent again, we did 2 of each set. Then we did another 2 laps to recover from those. Then we started the speed. We did a 600, 500, 400, 300. My first 600 was ok, at the 200 mark I was at 37 seconds, at the 400 mark it was 74 then I lost it that last 200 and my overall time was 1:55. Then we did a 500 which was a ok but my time sucked. Josephine decided to do this one with us so that pushed me a bit more. I couldn't here tony yell out the times at the 200 and 400 times but my overall time was around 1:23. Then we did a 400 and my 200 time was 40 seconds which sucks so I really pushed that last 200 meters and my overall time for that 400 was 74 seconds. Then we were almost done. We walked the 100 meter to the start of the 300 mark. Since I was so exhausted after these I totally lost it on that 300. My time was pretty horrible, it was 58 seconds and my legs felt like lead. It was so hard just to finish that last 100 meters. I don't know what it is, if i'm out of shape or I was just really pushing it on those previous speed things. Then I was almost done, we walked a 100 meter then we strided out to another 100 meter then it was finally time for the cool down. Since I was roughly at 3.5 miles by now I only needed a 1.5 mile cool down. So I started a grass lap with Sophie, then I did another grass lap with Suzette, and then I did 2 laps on the track and I was done! Then I came home and ate a ton!!!! then I did my leg things on the machines, the weighted calf raises, 3 sets of 15 squats, holding my knee up for a minute thingy, weighted arm swings, push ups, crunches, then stretching because I was TOTALLY DEAD!!!!!
