We went up to Red butte going the legacy bridge way. Then when we got up there we did some speed-change type stuff, running back and forth 100 meters. Then we did a speed workout there, which was weird because it was all on a hill and not around a track where you go in circles, and it was on dirt so it got super dusty.

Well it went 200, then 200 recovery, 400, 300 recovery, 600, 400? recovery, 800. Then we did it backwards, switching up when you go uphill and downhill.

Then we went back the same way. 

 You know, I wasn't feeling that great. As usual. But I think a lot of it went mental this workout and I did extra horrible. I was behind the 1st year people and couldn't help but think that I should be in front of them, yet I'm all the way in the back, took it negatively, and then thought about why I haven't quit yet. It took a lot for me to remind myself why. I've decided I just have to grit my teeth and stick it out until I'm out of this hole. Stupid Iron deficiency. Or whatever it is.

Today we went to red butte...again. But we went a different way. We went up to foothill then over and took the adventure run into the U campus then up from there. Then we did some hills after Tomy got interviewed and they took pictures? of us while we did the hills. We did 3 different hills 4 times. Then we went along shoreline to the zoo and back to the track.

I was feeling pretty light headed and weak during most of it. At one point it seemed like I was gonna pass out or something, but I just tried to work through it, but I didn't do so well just because of it. On the cool down I was really sick of this being in the back stuff so I just decided I was gonna try the best I could to catch the boys in front of me, so I used the downhill the best I could. Sometimes I would have to slow down but other than that it was okay.

We went down to Liberty. We did 3 2 mile tempos. I was supposed to hit just under 16 minutes with Olivia and Ellie. I was feeling good, so I just saw how long I could stick with Abigail. Then I just tried to work through the remaining mile. It didn't seem to be too fast and not too slow either. The first one I got 14:06, then 14:17, and finally 14:52ish. The last one was the hardest for me. Each time we got a recovery of running back to the start. Then we ran back to the track.

I think I'm finally coming back!!!

We went up to sunnyside, did a lap, then did barefoot strides, and then we did a lap of fireman, then went back to the track.

Speed today. Mile warmup mile speed changes.

We did an 800 and 4 400s. They were all as hard as you could possibly go. a lap in between each. On the 800 I got 2:42, then for the 400s I hit 75, 75,77, 79.

Then we cooled down.

It reminded me so much of track! It's sad to think that Cross Country is almost over.
