30 minute warmup on the canal trail, then we got down to business - 8x400m on the track @GP 76s (and not under 72) w/90s rest between. We pretty thoroughly nailed this workout. Times were 74, 74, 75, 74, 73, 71, 72, 72. I thought they would be a whole lot harder than they were, so it was nice to have them go by so smoothly! The last few were tough, but that probably had something to do with the fact that we pushed them muchly. Cooled down 15 minutes TT after.

| Nice recovery run up Green Canyon with Hannah after drills this afternoon. Weather was perfect. Calves, hams and glutes are pretty sore after yesterday's 400's.

Drove up to the River trail with the team, then we did a fifty minute run with 6x90s pushes @60effort (or so), then 3x20s strides. Cool up in the canyon, beautiful run.

| Surprisingly tired for today's run. Got up earlier to do my 40 minutes and just felt pretty blah for the most part.

| Ran with the team at the Pre-nats course. Started off kinda stiff from all the travel yesterday, but ended up feeling pretty great by the time we did our 5 minute push. Picked out some good spots to push tomorrow and got the course figured out. Cool beans. Goals for tomorrow: -go out at around 5:40, with Jessie -push the downs, keep consistent on the ups -at 1k to go, start to pick it up -on the last curve and straight, kick until the end

| Warmed up 15 minutes with the team - too early - then got ready for the race. Race times!! Took off too fast with the pack (3:19 at 1k and 5:29 at 1m) and was feeling pretty tired already by then. Attempted to keep up the pace, but ended up with a 5:52 on my second mile. By this time I was feeling really hot, dead and wanted to be done. But, I kept focusing on my race goals and stayed consistent on the long uphill, then pushed the little downhill onto the curvy part of the course. I'd pushed so much previous that I was pretty sure I couldn't keep it up for the rest of the race, but I just decided to push until I totally died. Turns out it was a good strategy! Third mile was a bit slower, but still sub 6! 5:58-ish, and heard a coach yell that the girl right in front of me was in 100th place. Excited, with 1k to go, I stuck with my plan and started my slow acceleration to the finish, and started passing lots of girls! As I kicked on the longest straightaway EVER, I was pretty sure that I was going to run out of gas. But I made it and got an awesome PR and place - I improved my finish from 2 years ago by 54 seconds and 96 places! 6k PR by 42 seconds too! So sweet! Cooled down for 18 minutes cheering on the guys and running on the course.
