Sock tans

So I've been at my cabin this past weekend, and it was super muddy, wet and cold, so my mom wouldn't let me run. I also thought that I would let my lungs rest for a while and see if it would feel better soon. It did stop hurting after a while!!! occasionally it will hurt, but not nearly as bad and as long. I went for a run (because I thought it might be time to start running again, and because I felt bad not running for so long) to sugarhouse bark and back to my house. I ran into Amanda Bischoff and ran with her a little ways back home. It was nice to have someone to talk to. :)

Yep, it was a lot harder this time than the last time I did it, which was less than a week ago. It's amazing how fast you lose it. 

i was just coming back from not running for a while. I know i ran yesterday, but still. I feel way out of shape. I did a mile warmup and couldn't keep up with the group even then, so I gave up and sat with Dominique. Then Bill made me do 4 400s to pace Abigail on her 800s. The first one I hit like a 78-80 because Abigail didn't quite hit it i don't think...maybe she did IDK. 2nd one I hit like a 77-78 because she was right on 80. 3rd one I was crashing and hit maybe an 80-82. 4th one I have no clue because I started too soon then had to wait for Abigail to catch up a bit before I went hard again. Then I did 200s with Dominique and Abigail. I was crashing way bad by then, but luckily they weren't timed. I normally do pretty good on the 200s and get 36-37ish, but honestly I don't think I got any of them. I know one split was 40. One time we did go pretty fast, maybe got 35.

Then I did a 1/2 mile cool down to get to 3.

So today for some reason I felt pretty good about my workout. Maybe because it was a little bit higher of mileage. I don't know. Went to liberty, 1.75 mile warmup. I wasn't told that I had to do the tempo, but I did anyway. I did 2 miles, which was the minnimum that Bill told me to do with a maximum of 4. I kinda wish I had done 3 at least, but oh well. I think I hit my mile pretty close to 7 minutes, but then started to crash 2nd mile. I finished with 14:50 when I was aiming more for a 14. oh well, my out-of-shape-ness is getting to me. hope I can come back quickly. 1/2 mile to the drinking fountain thing, then 1.75 miles cool down back to the track to get to 6 for the day.

So today we just went 3 miles out and 3 miles back. We did the shriners run. got to just before the fire station. I tried to keep up with Bill and them, and succeeded until the hill. then I crashed and died mentally. the last 3.5 miles was hard, but I'm kindof happy they waited for me at the 3 mile mark. :P

I went on a run around my neighborhood to get to 4.5 for the day.

So Bill told me just to go an hour, so I did. I went online and made a new route, but I didn't realize how many hills there were, including that HUGE one on Browning. I knew about that one, but thought it wouldn't be too bad. I was originally going for 7.5, but in the hour I only got 6.5. It was really, really hot too, so that might've been part of it. Oh well, it was a pretty good workout. Plus, I am still trying to come back. So I'm okay with it.
