Today I decided to go on a shake out run. I started at my house and ran down to Sugar House Park. Then I went into the park and did a lap in there. Every pole I did speed changes. So I sprinted from one pole to another then I jogged from that pole to the next  throughout the entire lap. I havn't done any running speed on hills in a long time so it was actually tiring me out. So I decided to call it a day at that and I ran home. Then Hopefully later tonight I will do my crunches, push ups, squats, weights, and planks because right now I am going to watch the new Little Red Riding Hood movie:)

AM: 

I have started up again going on the elliptical and studying physics again now that my APHUG test is done. Thank goodness

PM:

Today at track practice it was a easy workout because Tomorrow we have a meet. So it was a half mile warm up with the team then the stretching circle with drills. Then we broke up into our groups. So my group did 6 strides. First 2 were full on sprints, then we did 2 with our arms down for a 50 then strong arms for another 50 and the last 2 were accelerating as a group then a total sprint when we got to Tony. Then we all did a 200 stride. Then since Hussein has State in the Medley this Friday we decided to pace him in a 600 hoping to get him under a 59 second first lap because that is what the boys at state are going to be running. So Tomy ran with him the first 200 meters and ran the second 200 with us, when Hussein passed the first 200 meter mark I joined in and ran with him till the finish line. So Tomy and I both ran a 400 but we ran together in the middle 200. The girls started at the 300 meter start and paced him for a 200 meter also. I decided we were going to slow so I said lets pick it up Hussein but he couldn't go any faster, Tomy had him going at a way to fast first 200. My 400 time was a 64 and Hussein's lap when I was running with him was a 70 and Tomy had him at a 65 first lap for him. So Hussein did about a 68 pace which is slower than what he did at regions. So then Tomy and I did a mile cool down and called it 2 for the day. It was actually 2.5 miles and a 200 but I dont care. It is too much math trying to figure out the exact distance of what is going on. I hope I do good at the meet tomorrow. It is my last chance to break 5:15 in the 1600 Meter. Then when I came home I did a 15 minute ice bath while I was texting Dakota about our plans on Saturday and Friday.

Today at track practice we were supposed to have the JV regions meet but Bountiful cancelled it for no apparant reason. So as a team we did the usual two laps as a warm up then stretching. Then I went with Bills group on a 2 mile loop up to foothill over to the VA hospital then back to gaurdsman and back to the track. Then we did 2 300s while jogging the 100 then i did a half mile cool down. then I went home and did my weights, core, wall sits, crunches, push ups, and weighted arm swings.

Today at track practice we Suzette and I got out of TAing for matheson early so we got the work out for Tony. So we did a mile warm up then stretching then 8 strides. then we did 4 200s of jogging a 200 after a 200 on. So it was like speed changes but with 200s. Then I did a mile cool down while Suzette only did a half mile. The 200s were only supposed to be at about 75 percent so it wasnt  a hard workout at all. I didnt do my core today because I got home to late.

Today we had practice at the commons for no apparent reason. so we didnt do the two laps and stretching. instead we talked about state that is tomorrow, because state is tomorrow we have a easy workout. so me, dakota, chester, and tomy all went on Bills run for once haha. so we went out of the school into the teachers parking lot up to 13th over on 13th to the cemetary across the street from the U football stadium. we entered the cemetary and did 2 laps but since tomys garmin didnt have service till the start of the hill in the cemetary we just decided to run 3.5 miles in the cmetary then go back and see where were at then. chester immediately started to fall behind but we made him sprint up to us and keep up with us. it was a good run for him. so by the time we got back to the school we were at 2.5 so we did laps around the school until we hit 3.5. but since we didnt have service till the bottom of the hill, im counting that as a mile so we really did 4.5. It was a fun run.
