Today for cross country it was the first day of hill week or "hell weak"-Bill Cobler. We started the week out by meeting at sugarhouse park. We started with a big grass lap as a warm up then we jogged over to the starting spot. While we were waiting for everyone to finish the lap we stretched for a little while and we waited for bill to be done putting the course up. We did a total of six hills where they went on the hill closest to 21st south we ran up the hill half way, turned right ran down that to the bottom made at sharp turn right again ran up half of it again then turned right again and ran up the hill again. Then we stayed on top of the hill for like 50 meters or something then we did switch backs down the hill and ran to the finish. The entire hill is exactly .35 of a mile. We did that 6 times. My goal was to finish right with or in front of vuong. I stayed with him pretty much throughout the entire thing until the down hills and the flat parts because he sprinted ahead of me. My times were 2:30, 2:28, 2:30, 2:30, 2:30, 2:30. I was really consistent on them but on the last up hills on all of them I think I could have pushed a bit more because from that point on it is all downhill. Then when we were done with that we ran to another weird part on the state course. It is right after the pond and Bill said we were jogging it so I was not expecting to go fast. For the first one I did only jog it but then on the second one I sped up a ton. Then the Varsity did a four mile cooldown around the park. Since I accidentally turned off my garmin distance thing the timer kept going so one of my miles it thought was way slow but then I realized the distance was not getting any bigger so I turned it on again. After this I was totally dead so I was not going to finish it out to 10. When I came home I did my core and my leg weights.

Tonight after peer court, my mom picked me up and we went to Steiners. She wanted to workout and I needed more miles. So I ran 4.5 miles on the treadmill at an easy pace, just a nice easy run.
