I couldn't make it to practice today because I had to get some plates removed from my jaw.  Yup, real fun.  I got done and played mom driving my sisters around all over town.  By the time I got done, the numbing medicine had worn off, and my jaw told me not to run.  But I just thought of some Crispy Creme lyrics, "I'm tough as nails, you're slower than a snail," and with that in mind I buckled down.  And guess what, once my face got numb from the cold air, I was fine!  Whoot whoot! It's the grind.

We did a fun run off of Navajo Drive.  Coach gave me a new nickname of "Alvin" because I was swollen in the jaw area.  Also, Dallin was his usual chirpy/annoying self and threw rocks the whole time.  I love my team, really!

What a run!  We went a faster pace than we usually do on our "easy runs", but it was still a blast.  I'll get used to the new pace soon, so no big deal.  My biggest problem was I was hungry, but I guess that's nothing new, I'll pack more snacks or something, like another can of beans (shoutout to Joseph Buenning).  In other news, me and Coach had a nice talk about how good the fish from Costco is, and coincidentaly, we had talapia from Costco for dinner!  It ruled!

Good run today out to "witch mountain."  Coach wasn't with us, and Josh Mcphie put Rex in charge of the run, so it was pretty adventurous. I don't know if all the boys loved it, but I did!  I think it's good to mix it up and go on these crazy runs, keep it loose, ya know?  Also, Coach wants us to remember the 5-to-one rule.  I means five positive thoughts to every negative one.  I think this could really push me to the next level.  All in all, a pretty dang good day!

Just a fun run with the team.  I honestly love running with the guys so much, it's so fun, and they're some of the best friends I've ever had.  The only problem I have is deciding who to talk to!  Haha.  Well, the only thing that didn't go very well was I had to miss tabatta to go move some speakers and equipment for the "Roc Dox."  I took forever!  I ended up getting home at 1 that night, but at least I got paid!

What a busy day!  I went to orchestra rehersal all morning, and then I went to sing at a funeral at  two, which was actually a very touching experience.  I then went on a nice loop that ended up being a little long, but that's ok.  My legs felt a little flat, but that's the good thing about running, once you get in a rhythmn, it's easy to keep going!  Another good day, hopefully my concert goes well tonight!
