Be a Crazy Runner

 I felt alright today.  I couldn't find my water bottle this morning, so I was super thirsty even though it was a little easier workout.  But anyways, I ran with Mia! It was fun!  My times were 4:39, 5:12, and 5:15. The time I was supposed to hit was 5:35, so I never got it.  We ran as a group, though!  That's always good!

I felt pretty good today, super sluggish, though.  Anyways, I iced and stretched last night, cuz I think I am getting shin splints.  So I'm gonna ice every day now!  I don't wanna be injured!!  Striders were good, felt strong and had a good pace.  Kids club was super fun!  The little girls are great! :)

I was tired today too, even though I went to bed at 9:40 last night!  Today was a lot tougher than when we did it last week.  First of all, I ran alone, 2nd of all we had to do recovery jogs with no walking or stopping.  I did alright, I did 28 repeats, so not as much as last week...  But I guess it's ok, I'll keep on improving!

My dad signed me up for an Uncle Sam 5k at 6:30 this morning.  I thought it would be cooler, but no!  It was 96 degrees!  But for this race, we had to wear a hat and a beard.  That was hard!  It got super hot!  It prolly was super funny to watch though! My time wasn't too bad, either!  I got 22:27.  Or somewhere close to that, and my dad didn't beat me! :) 

I felt really good today!  It was awesome!  I got to run with coach Roberts! And Ali for 2 miles. :)  I kept a really good pace for like the first half of the run, and then I started to feel it during the 2nd half. But I made it through. :)  Super good run today!!

Well, I was gonna wake up at like 7 to go run, but I ended up turning off my alarm.. I woke up at 8:30, and I wanted to run with somebody!  So I asked my little brother if he would run with me, and I said we couldn't take any breaks, then he didn't want to.  So I decided to call Ali!  Thank goodness she didn't wake up to her alarm either!  We met up at Pine View park, and made up a loop around there.  It was really fun!  And the weather wasn't too bad either!  Felt a little sluggish though..  But it was not bad. :)

Three 1000's today! Felt alright, but better than last week!  Kept on getting faster times than the time I was supposed to hit.  Oh well!

PM- First afternoon run!  It was pretty hot!  On the way there was ok, but on the way back, it got toasty!  Weights were as fun as always! :)

Easy grass run today!  Felt good!  I ran with Rachel and Coach!  Striders were fun!  Kids club was great!  I'm sad that I will miss the next few kids clubs... :(

30/30 test today!  It feels like this workout is getting tougher and tougher as we do it more.  I think it's because I am actually doing the recovery jogs.. well I did them before, but not full distance.  Today I did 27!  I wanted to get to 30, but the last one I did, I didn't even get close to the distance I was supposed to hit!  So I stopped with Kaelie. :)  When we did the cool down, my legs got tight and they felt heavy, so I only did an 800 cool down.

Hill workout!  It wasn't that bad actually!  But I figured out that I am too happy when I run, cuz when we did bounders up the hill, I couldn't stop skipping!  I was so excited!  Anyways, pretty good run today. :)

PM-  A little cooler today!  Pretty humid though!

Today was pretty good, that hill was tough!  It felt like we were swimming, cuz it was humid!!  Thank goodness they were playing "What Makes You Beautiful" at Fabulous Freddy's, I prolly would've died, if I didn't hear that song!  Just kidding. :)  That song just made the run more enjoyable. :)  Finished strong with a freshman race with Kaelie! :)

Made a group and we met up at the soccer park at 7:15.  It was fun!  My legs were tired and sore from the week, so thank goodness it was an easy 4!  We were sick of hills, so we decided to take the flattest 4 mile run possible. :)  Got pretty toasty at the end, and I also got a supa' bad cramp too.  Oh well!  Good run! :D

I felt pretty good today!  The weather was really nice!  We got faster times than we should've, but they were only like 20 seconds off.  So not bad!  Who am I kidding!  Those are way off!  Blame it on Coach Roberts!!  Coach Roberts also said that he was a match maker... I don't know about that, Coach!  Anyways, nice run. :)

PM- Well, I felt junky.... My legs felt heavy, and it kinda felt like I forgot how to run, cuz it didn't feel natural at all!  I was dying!!  I was also supa' tired... And could barely keep my eyes open!  So crappy run, but weights were fun!

Well, this was my last team run for a while!  See you guys in 2 weeks!

I ran at girls camp!!  I'm surprised that I actually got myself to run!  Well I prolly wouldn't have if Mia, Rachel, and Megan weren't there.  So thanks you guys!! :)  Felt alright, but it was my 2nd time running this week, and we were in higher altitude.  But it wasn't all that, I was also eating tons of junk food!  Oops!!  The weather was good, though!

I ran 2 miles this morning with Mia.  We ran up this killer hill!  I bet it wasn't as hard as the one the rest of the team ran, but it still was tough!  But no worries, we will get our mileage up to where it's supposed to be.  We are gonna make a group of girls tonight at 10 to go run 4 miles!  It's gonna be so fun!!

We were all so tired from girls camp, so we decided to run 4 miles.  I think I got a little head cold, I had a stuffy nose, and a little headache.. But it was still fun. :)

Ran with Ali and Megan this morning!  We were gonna go 4, but no one had time!  So we went 3.  Plus my cold got worse, when I got home from my run, I had a fever and I was achy.  So I kinda slept the rest of the day, that was fun. :) 

I got home from Disneyland today!  I texted Ali to see if she ran yet, and she said no!  So I decided to run with her!  I felt so good, even though I didn't really run all this week.  But I did run from ride to ride, if that counts!  I'm excited to run with the team again! :)

AM- I thought these used to be easier!  But I guess I thought wrong, because it was pretty tough!  It might be because I didn't run all last week...  And plus this is the most I've done, and the fastest!

PM- XC camp!  Ran 4 miles, first two miles were easy, and the last 2 were pretty hard!  Figured out, the way out was downhill, so that made the way back uphill!  Still fun, though!

AM- 8 miles!  It was actually kinda' fun!  I felt pretty good!  I hurt my ankle again, though!  What the heck!  I kept up with Mia, Coach, and Ali for 7 miles, then fell behind the last one..  But when I was almost to the campsite, Nicole decided to freshman race me, I totally won!! :)

PM- Felt pretty good for this run.  Mia wanted to run with the boys, so I started out with them, then decided that I didn't want to race and easy 3, so I waited for Ali, Megan, and Coach so I could run with them.  I actually got into the lake, but only up to my shorts. :)

AM- I don't know what was up with me this morning.  I felt so tired... I think that I didn't fully recover from the 8 miler yesterday.  Or maybe I was just a wimp!  I don't know!  Anyways, this run felt pretty hard!

PM- This run felt hard too!  But only on the way back up the hill.  The way down felt so nice!  I'll try to forget what Kyler did on this run, but I don't think it's possible.  That poor chipmunk...
