AM:

New shoes! I'm trying them out. So I kinda slept in a bit, missed the earlier group getting more mileage in, so I ran to sugarhouse and made it in time for them to come back and the second group to start. We did the cemetery run. I was able to stay with Tomy, Natalie and Clayton, probably because we were going slower than I expected. When we got to the cemetery, Natalie and I stopped and got a drink, then Natalie got a bloody nose! I did a lap, when I got back she was still there, her nose finally stopped bleeding. Her shirt looked like she slaughtered some animal on it! I ran back with Natalie and finished at 8.5.

PM:

We went to Tanner Park and went to the drinking fountain, then I turned around and finished to 5.

I felt like crap and was really sluggish. We did a little over 2 miles warmup, then strides. On the strides I started to feel even worse. Then we did fartlek. It went 1, 2, 3, 4, 3, 2, 1. The 1 and 2s had 1 minute off and 3s and 4 had 2 minutes off. After the first 2 I could tell this was not going to be a good workout. I'm really mad that I felt so crappy, but everyone has their off days. A couple of times I felt like I was going to pass out. It was just a really bad morning. I think the only plus with today was that my foot and achilles have stopped hurting. Maybe next time I'll actually eat something before I run. And get more sleep. Nap time here I come.

PM:

We met at the Jordan River Parkway and went out 2.5 and back. It felt fast and felt like a good run.

Pipeline! I love it up there. I wasn't feeling too great though. I ran with Natalie for a while, but fell back after a couple miles. When I got to the turn around it took a lot of effort for me to start running again. It was a slower run for me, but I was tired and didn't feel good. 

PM:

I had to be somewhere, so I went for my own run. It was really hot and windy so it sucked. 4.5 miles

Today we met at Fairmont. We did a lap around the park, then did 2 sets of Flannigan circuits. Then we did the penny run! My partner was Eleanor, we were going at a good pace, but we did a large G so we lost. Eleanor and I cooled down to 6. 

PM:

Met at Bill's house and did a 7 mile loop.

AM:

Today was the Draper Days 5k! I warmed up with the girls for about 2.5 miles.

I got out good, but maybe a little too fast. When I started to settle into what I thought was a good race pace, people started to pass. I tried to match people whenever they came, but often I would let them go after about 10 seconds. Finally I decided I was going to actually stick with whoever came next, turns out it was Nate. So I stuck with him, and we started to catch up to people. When I started to fall off, Kiley soon started to pass. I matched her the best I could and I was doing well, but then I lost it mentally because I thought we were almost done but from what I could see it just kept going. Turns out we actually were almost done my eyes were playing tricks on me. When I tried to kick I felt like I couldn't, maybe I just wasn't trying hard enough. I got 20:29, so not that great. Afterward I felt really light headed, and I was blocking out what a lot of people were saying, and not really fully understanding people either, it was weird. Sorry guys. Once we started the cool down I felt better. It was at an easy pace, kinda slow but it felt nice. We did about 2.5.

When I got home I waited around for an hour, then did 6 more miles.

PM:

I did 3.5. It was way too hot outside. The arch of my foot has been hurting lately, and it started to hurt much worse than it has been on this run. When I got home I iced and rolled it out, but still hurts. I think I'm just going to take a break from running for a bit, I don't want to push it to a bigger injury, I don't want a repeat of last year.
