| | 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!
