Got up early to run since I missed yesterday, my legs were pretty stiff and a bit sore from yesterday, so after warming up I stretched lots, then went on Arctic Circle. On my way back I rolled my left ankle kinda hard, but I kept going and shook it off, it only hurt a bit after running on it the rest of the way back.

With the meet tomorrow, I just ran easy 4 out on Green Springs. There was some honeysuckle I got to run by and it smelled so great, it made my whole run awesome, though my legs felt kinda tired out. I am so excited for the meet tomorrow at SUU because Holt signed me up for the 2000m steeplechase! (and the 3200m & 800m) Goals for tomorrow: 3200m - around 11:40, at least not slower than last time I ran it (which was forever ago). 800m - 2:25 - I know I can get state qualifying!!! I KNOW I CAN!!! Steeplechase - not die...and have fun!

It was scary to put you in the steeple - but you deserve to have some fun!
