Mile warm up, 800, 400, 500 with equal recovery then a two mile warm up at 5 in the morning! I am exhausted!!!!!!!

This afternoon I ran down to sugarhouse park and did a mile and a half warm up then a half mile of J's in the pouring rain. Then I did an easy workout of one lap of 1 lightpost on 2 off because tomorrows workout is supposed to be hard. Then I did a lap cooldown and went home because I was soaked!

This afternoon I met up with Levi and Later on Tim and Andrea. Levi and I did 10 strides on Highlands football field then a lap around the park in 8:57 which is a new PR for me because previously it was 9:03 and I did this on my warm up:) So after that Levi and I did 6 laps of J's and I was absolutely Dieing! So I stopped and stretched and then did the next thing. When Tim got there we waited and stretched while he warmed up and then we went on the run with him. We did firemen around the park with 3 guys. The recovery pace was a 5:49! Tim is fast! Then I had to go because it was my parents anniversary:) so I stretched when I got home.

This morning my dad and I went out early. I did a mile warm up, then the usual 2 800s and 2 400s. But there was a ton of creepers so my did did my recovery with me. We only did a 400 for recovery after each. Then I did a mile and a half cooldown jogging home. It was a creepy morning:)

This afternoon I just went on a 5 mile run. I stayed in the park because Tiny Tots finished early so I had my dad take me to Sugarhouse Park. So I did a big outer loop, went to the bathroom and got water, then I did an inside lap. Then I got more water and just ran around the field in the park 2.5 times until I got to 5 miles. It was a hot run today and I need to work on some endurance!  

Tonight I did my own workout at Sugarhouse park. I ran down to the park and did a mile and a half. Then I did a mile and a half of J's for warm up then I did a light speed workout. I did 6 300s with jogging across the field for recovery. I was going for 60's but I hit 58, 58, 58, 58, 56, 56. Then I went across and did 6 hills on the second uphill of the state course. When I got to the top of the hill I sprinted about 30 meters. Then I just cooled down until I was at 6 miles. Then the drama started..........

Because of the drama of last night my family is at my grandmas house. So I got up early, ran a half mile to a elementary school, did 2 laps in there which was about a half mile each, then I ran home. I decided to run around the block which is exactly another half mile.

This afternoon I went over to sugarhouse park. I did a mile warm up on the Highland Track then I did 4 J's then had to go to the bathroom so I strided over to the bathrooms and strided back. Then I did 2 more laps of J's. Then I did a 400 right after the J's, my legs felt like lead this whole run! So I did the 400 in 7. Then I jogged over to the park and did an inside lap as a cooldown and went back to my grandmas:)

This morning I slept in til 7 and decided to do my run. I went out a mile from my grandmas house, I went to about 3900 south then turned around and came back. My legs hurt! They are Heavy! And I am done for the week!!!!!!!
