Sock tans

I ran to sugarhouse, did a lap, then went kind of the way to do the cemetary run and then turned around and went back along 17th then down to 16th and back home.

I ran with SARAH!!!! We went from my house the U campus then turned around and went back.

We went to the cemetary and I did 3 laps. Then I just went back to the lower parking lot, and I am guessing I ran about 4.25 because the others all added on to 6. I felt kinda crappy but I guess that's what happens when you only run every other day. I want to b e in shape for this Saturday, but I know that it probably won't happen. Maybe I will be for BYU.

We ran to Liberty and then went to the mile mark and did 10 1 minute on 1 minute offs and then ran to the drinking fountain and went the long way around back to the school. Then we added on whatever to get to 8. I felt much better than I did yesterday. Although I am VERY sore.

So we did the flagpole run. Flagpole to flagpole then to sugarhouse and went to the first entrance and went a mile out on the road and turned around. Then we went back to the school. I started to not feel so great around the 3.5-4 mile mark. I fell off of the group after the light by sugarhouse. Then I tried to catch them a bit on the way back but it was in vain. When I caught up to Abigail, (and Emmaline and Garek, who went a different way I think?) I decided I would try to keep up with her. Except for the fact that she was full out sprinting for what seemed like forever until I decided to back off. Then of course we both slowed down. Just my luck. Then when I got to the school I didn't see anyone and we were over 8 so I assumed they were adding on. Did it cross my mind that they could be inside? No. So I went to 9. I was still very sore today.

We ran to Virginia street and went up to 11th ave and ran about .75 along there and turned around and ran shriner's run back.

I hate treadmills.

We did the VA loop and went in the cemetery and did a lap, then when we got to the hill we did 10 strides up the hill with recovery down. Then we finished the lap and did another and went back to the school and finished to 8.5

Went to sugarhouse and did some 800s. I did 6. The last 2 my legs felt heavy. But I feel like I worked hard. Then we went back to the school and finished to 11.

Today we just went for a run. We went to 21st then to 9th? and went to liberty and did 2 laps and went back to the school. I tried to stick on Tomy for as long as I could. On the way back to East I fell off. Then we finished to 9 once we were there.

We went Legacy bridge way to Red butte and up to the yellow fence then turned around and went to the flag pole and back along 13th. I realized how weak I am while doing the core stuff. I should probably work on that

Today we just did a run. We went to the flagpole and then went through the U campus and did the shriners run way to sunnyside, then up to 19th to 9th and back the the school, then added on to 4.5. Bill said it was supposed to be an easier relaxed run, so I went at a slower pace :)

Today was Weber. First indoor track race! I didn't do so well though... But it's the first track race so I guess no one ever really does amazingly good except for the people like Tomy and Chris who just always do good. Anyway, I started warming up with Ryan then decided I should go to the bull pen. so I went over there and they gave us our bibs and took our cards and placed us into heats, I was in the faster one. They decided to do the slowest first. So Abigail and I did drills and strides and more warmup stuff. Counting it all as 1.5

So for the 3200 I did really bad. Bill gave us pep talks and such about getting 1 and 2, I wanted to but I don't think I wanted it enough. I thought it would be cool and all, but I should've gotten into the mindset that NO ONE will take 1 and 2 away from us. Yeah, I should've thought more about it so that when the time came I would've been prepared. Anyway, first few laps Abigail and I led, then I lost it and fell off. I wish I would've tried to hang on. When they lapped me I think I just gave up a bit. But last lap I tried to get going, not sure if I moved much faster though. I got 13:28 & 10th place overall.

Then Bill said to eat food and then go for a cool down. I cooled down 2.5 outside in the freezing cold. But it was nice to be able to think and be alone for a little bit.

In between sleeping and laying around, I ran a mile with Bill and Chris.

Then I warmed up with the milers doing C things in the hallways. Went to the bull pen and got my bib and ran the 1600.

I felt like I was much more consistent in this one, it was slow but Bill said time doesn't matter right now. 5:54 with 7th place.

Then Emmaline decided she wanted to do the 4x800. Lovely. So I did that. I was the first leg, I think maybe I thought "hey, it'll be easy" and forgot how hard the 800 actually is. I tried to hang on to the front girl, but she gapped me, then the other girls caught up to me, but at least I was tied for last and not super far back. Yeah, are team lost. But I tried! Then .5 cooldown.

Ran to Liberty and did 4 800s. The terrible air quality aggravated my asthma. I had a hard time breathing and such. Also my legs felt like jelly on top of that. I wish I stayed for the entire thing, from what I hear they only did 1 more. Lovely. Anyway, I think not running yesterday also came into play. But I fought with my mom to let me go, and she wouldn't let me. I don't blame her though it can be scary at night. I should've gotten up earlier and gone for at least 3, but me and my laziness wanted to sleep in thinking I'd be able to later. Now getting to 60 is going to be very difficult, if possible. No one will come run with me in the mornings, probably out of laziness or lack of motivation. Come on people.

Just went for a run. We went to sugarhouse and did a lap on the road, and then went to the cemetary and then did that run back to sugarhouse, and to the school along 13th.

Today it was super slippery because of the FREEZING RAIN. Cool. We started on the sidewalk and quickly switched to the road. We were running on ICE. We went to sugarhouse and did 3 road laps. Then exiting the park I slipped on some ice and bruised up my whole left side. But I ran through it trying not to think about it. Then we just went back to the school and stopped at 8.25

We ran 5.75 today.

AM:

We did about 3 miles warmup??? Something like that. Then we ran. Cool huh? Never saw that one coming did you? :)

It was a 5k. I feel like I did alright. I'm getting back to where I was in the summer somewhat. My 3 mile had to have been under 20. :)

I started out kinda fast, then started to fall back farther in the pack, then Bill caught up to me and told me to hang on to the group that I saw in front of me. It was very weird to not see high school girls but adults in front of me. It was a change. I feel like I didn't crash I just had a hard time pushing myself to keep up. It was very discouraging when I thought of how much the 15k is going to suck and pushing those thoughts out of my head was difficult. weird things go through my mind when I run. Like those runs where all I can think of is the very little bit of spanish I know. I must be very weird huh?

Anyway, I did cool down with Bill, Chris, and Tomy. We got to 9.

PM:

I did 9 miles on my own. I got slower towards the end but I was just ready to be done.

We ran along 9th to guardsman. Then we went to the cemetery and did 3 backwards laps, then did the shriners run up to the fire station, but decided to go another mile out and back, then went back to the school and finished to 13.

We went to the oval. We did 2 miles warmup and a mile speed changes. Then we did 5 l000s, the first one felt good, then it slowly got harder and worse. I hit 3:45ish, 3:48, 3:53, 3:48, and I can't remember the last one but it was way slow. On that last one I led it and we had a 3 second cushion but then I let it get to my mind with 200 left. Then we did cool down to 10. I ran with Sarah and I talked through a lot of stuff with her and I felt much better after :)

AM:

I ran with Megan this morning! I went 5 miles

PM:

We ran to sugarhouse and did 4 strides on 2 of the state hills. It actually wasn't that bad. However, I felt a bit sick to my stomach because I had a donut thing in math :) Then we did a lap in sugarhouse and went back then continued to 9.

AM:

I ran with Megan again. We did 4.

PM:

We went to Liberty and did 2 laps of fireman on the sidewalk
