So Highland was today. The weather sucked. I would describe it as the 7th circle of hell. Girls varsity was the last race so I had to wait a while. I started out fast. It killed but I do better when I just go for it. I was in third for a while until a passed McKenna and Jacia. Reagen caught me and we spent the majority of the race pushing each other. That was nice because I wanted to give up. I had the stomach flu in Monday and haven't been able to really run like I needed. I also have been living on toast and saltines since because I couldn't keep anything else in. I was able to eat today which was good. Anyways, Reagen ended up finishing seven seconds ahead of me with a 20:20. She came in first for Uintah and I was second. The coaches told us we had the two fasted girls times ever on our team for Highland. So even though I didn't PR, today was a major success. Our team is getting to be really strong. One of the freshman, Rachel, ran a 21:57. That is way ahead of where I was at this time last year. She is going to be super fast. I'm so excited to help her achieve her potential. Today was pretty great.
