Ran to Elkridge park and did a half hour of 400's on a grass loop there. Coach just told us to do as many as we could in the 30 minutes, so Jessie and I just decided to go moderately fast continuously. We did about a 6:30 first mile barefoor, took a small break, did another 2 laps, put shoes on, did another mile, took a small break, did another mile, took my shoes off, then did 3 more laps before the time was out. The elevation up here is still killing me, but overall the workout was pretty good. Then we ran back to the track for a cooldown. (GT 392.7)

Went out with Julia for 45 minutes on 8th east, then ran down 10th for a while and back up to my place to finish up the hour. (GT 400)

Later in the afternoon, I ran to weights (about 3/4 mile) and then lifted. 'Twas a bit harder than last year, but not too bad.

Easy run later this morning since I didn't have class today. Woo hoo! Went on the canal trail (and ended up trekking across the landslide area, oops) then around on the canyon road, up main and back home via 1250 north. (GT 416.8)

In the afternoon, I ran to weights where the weight coaches proceeded to attempt killing us. It was no fun, hopefully I can walk tomorrow.

Got up freaking early for practice because most of my teammates are wimps and can't handle 90 degree weather. So, in the dark cold morning, we ran up to the Quad and did a few laps of indian runs, then a bunch of strides across it and did a mini-relay with strides too. Pretty easy. Then we ran back to the track (and then I ran back home). (GT 422.8)

Got up at 8:30 this morning, but really didn't feel like running. So I went back to sleep. Then I was going to go at noon, but still didn't want to go. And at 3 nearly went again. Finally at 6:30 I got out the door and ran to first dam and up Logan canyon until third dam and back. Once I got onto the trails and started enjoying myself, I was super glad I'd made myself go run. That trail is just so great! (GT 437.3)
