Today was 50%, we did Cross Hollows to Airport. Felt pretty good actually, for once the pace didn't feel forced. Oh I slipped on some black ice which was a blast! My hip is a real trooper for taking all those hits. Speaking of which it was a little out of alignment today, but doesn't hurt. My hip flexor though is super tight. Met with Coach today to discuss a few things, feel a lot better now. I think a big reason why I'm not doing well is that I expect too much of myself. I expected to be running PRs but in reality I have to adjust to the training. Coach said he's not worried about my slow times and assured me that I will get better with time I just have to be patient. Many people on the team I guess struggle their freshman year then go on to do great things by their senior year. I have a new appreciation for college running, its a lot more intense than I was expecting but I know that I will adjust eventually and when I do everything will click, and then I'll run crazy PRs. |
