Sock tans

today was an easy workout because we have state tomorrow. we did 1 mile warm up, i mile speed changes, and 1 mile cool down. I tried to stay up with Natalie and Abigail, but towards the end I was a little farther back. it was a total of 3 miles.

Today was state. I ran a 1 mile warm up. In the race, I did pretty bad. I think I started out too fast at the beginning. I crashed when I was running around the pond the first time. I tried to just keep running, but it was really hard, especially with a hill right after i crashed. I wanted to stop so many times, but I wouldn't let myself. The second time around the pond was one of the times I really almost stopped, but then people told me there was only a little bit left. I thought that the race ended sooner than it did, so I kicked way too soon. I got to the highland track when I felt like I was gonna pass out. I had trouble staying conscious, so went really slow and probably looked like a fool. It was a really scary feeling. it was a really bad race. I got 23:14.2, a full minute behind my P. R. I was 124th overall, 115th scoring, and 6th from East. I'm just glad I got the experience so that I know what I need to work on. 

Today I ran from my house to sugarhouse, and did a lap on the road. then i went to the East track like we always do, except that I didn't cross the street. I went down to the road just above the tennis courts and followed it to 900 S. I went up 900 S. and down Military Dr. and on 1700 E and back to my house. It was a 6.25 mile run. 

today I ran 4 miles.

Okay, so I have officially run out of Ideas for runs, so now I am adding onto some of the team runs. Today I added on to the cemetery loop run. Sorry, I forgot the name of the cemetery. I ran from my house and along 1700 E, over to and up Military Dr. and over to Sunnyside. I followed Sunnyside up to foothill, and followed foothill down to the cemetery. I did a loop inside it. While I was in the cemetery, I  found some visitors! This huge group of deer was standing next to the road I was running on, and they got scared and some ran away. the others just stared at me. I was really scared because one big one would not look away. Anyway, after that I followed 13th over to sunnyside again, went up to the street just above the tennis courts, over to 900 S. and up to Military Dr. and went home. It was a 6 1/2 mile run.
