At about 2 in the afternoon I ran 4 miles. I run up around in the avenues to get some good steep hills in the strengthen my legs before the cross country season actually started. I run up I street till I got to 11th avenue then I turned in there till I got to shriners hospitol then I ran down the hill untill I got to south temple and the I just finnished out the 4 miles. After my run I wasnt really tired as more as my legs hurting. I could tell that I need to strenghthen my legs a bit so I can get not only stronger but faster in my times and be able to run a lot longer at a good steady pace. Overall this run was a good productive run that I need to do more of.

At 7:30 this morning we had our first cross country summer workout. We went to sugarhouse park and did the state course that we will be racing in October. I liked the state course a ton because there was a ton to look at so when you are running you dont get bored of the same surroundings, the surroundings keep changing and its nice. I think I could of gone faster and pushed a bit more but I think I was doing OK for being the first workout and being the first time I have ever ran that course. I think we should do more hills to strengthen our legs so we as a team can increase our times.

At 7:30 this morning my cross country went to the sunnyside park run. We did about 2.5 miles before we started the workout as a good warmup for the speed. After the warmup we went on a 2.5 mile run around the park doing fartleck. I felt really tired when we had to do the cool down minute but when we were sprinting the minute it felt so much easier and a ton more fun. I got a PR in my mileage from doing the sprinting fartleck from how fun it was. I think we should do more of that kind of workouts.

In the morning at 7:30 I went out and did a trail run up by the zoo. It was 7 miles in total. I felt really good going up the hills but they got me really tired. If I could work on the hills some more I will be able to do that trail no problem. Overall the run for today was really good on my and on my muscles.

Today I couldnt go to my XC practice but I went running at the track. I decided to only to 3 miles but time my mile and my 800. My 800 time today was a 2:15 which is the fastest I have ever done in my life. My mile time was a 5:17 which is really fast because I only broke 6 minutes in one race in my track season. I know that I am getting stronger and becoming a better runner becase my times shows it. I hope my XC times become this good because I will be one of the fastest runners on the team. I felt really good while I was running the mile. I was tired at the end but while I was running it I thought it was a ton of fun. I enjoyed todays run a ton and I think I should do this once a week to increase my time for my track season so I can be as good as I possibly can.

I ran at 7 at night and I loved it. It felt so good in the cool and the sun wasnt gleeming down on me so I wasnt loosing that extra energy. I went for 6 miles non stop just running up and down different streets. weaving in and out of places. I thought it was a ton of fun. I went at a slow pace just to go and loosen up my legs because I have been pushing it all week. I was hitting about a 8 minute mile for it because I just wanted to go for a nice long slow run to have fun. It was good and now my legs dont hurt because I loosened them up. It felt really nice.
