Be a Crazy Runner

Did some 1000 repeats!  I did pretty good!  My slowest one was 4:45, so I hit some good times!

AM- Easy 3.

PM- Well I didn't feel too good on this run!  My first 2 mile repeat, was alright.  My 2nd one, I was going so slow!  I tried to speed up, but my legs just wouldn't move!!  I was dehydrated, and figured out I am not getting enough sleep at all.  So not a very good workout for me today. :|

AM- Easy 3!

PM- We ran the DI loop twice, wasn't too bad!  Went by pretty quick, and we also saw Coach Roberts!  I felt really good during today's run!  Striders were great!

AM- Easy 3!

PM- 1x1's today!  My only goal was to get more than 9 (which has been my record for a while)  and I did!!  I got 12!! :)  I felt really good, even though it was hot!  Did some weights and stuff.

AM- easy 3.

PM-  I ran 2 miles at the run-a-thon!

Well... I didn't really do well this week with mileage..  I just ran those miles at the run-a-thon.  And right when I got home, I slept.  And had to do some other things.  I didn't really have time to run the other 5.5.

AM- easy 3! little tired.

PM- 5 1000's!  I did pretty good with my times!  My slowest one was 4:40 (or close to that).  So fast times!

AM- Easy 3!

PM- 1x1's.  I did 14 today! Next time I'm gonna do all 15! :)

AM- Michigan!!  I used to always get so nervous over these, like way more than races.  Figured out that they aren't such a humungous deal as I thought they were. :) Races are way much more intense.  Except you prolly won't hear a mother screaming at her child saying to get his butt up and into the shower... now that was scary!  I don't know if I slowed down, due to almost having a heart attack, or sped up, cuz I wanted to get away!  I think my mind just went blank, so I don't even know what I did!  But I ended up with a pretty good time! I got 32 something, I keep on forgeting the seconds.  Next time I'm gonna hit A standard!!

PM- Easy 3!  It was soo nice!  I ran with Ali, Kaelie, and Jared.  So pretty fun group. :)  Striders were nice too.  The rain made it exciting!

AM- easy 3, grass run!

PM- 3 miles w/ 4 200's! super fun!

AM- Easy 3! Foot kinda hurt. :\

PM- Race!! Well, I didn't believe Ali at first that something bad was gonna happen due to it being Friday the 13th, but somthing bad did happen!  First we get there, and they already started the Girls Varsity race, so we had to race JV.  We got a little cocky thinking that we will totally dominate in that race!!  So we start, and I feel good!  I'm staying in the front with Mia, and we are kicking butt!  Then the mud decided that it was way hungry, and it wanted to eat a fast girl's shoe, so it did!  My shoe was off!!  I had to go back and grab it, so I wouldn't lose it forever, but I still kept my spot.  I just held my shoe in my hand and ran without a shoe for a while, then the girl behind me, and the people around me, said to put my shoe on, so I did!  And like 5 girls passed me.  But I got it back on, and passed them again, to get my spot.  And due to my luck, it happened again!  In fact it happened twice after that!!  So I was kinda like way far behind from where I was supposed to be.  When we ran up the mutha cussa, I felt sooo tired.  I felt like I was jogging, I tried to go faster, but my legs wouldn't let me!!  But I was able to get a nice sprint in the finish, so the girl behind me, couldn't pass me. :)  Prolly my most exciting race of the season!!

I felt super lazy and sore today... I didn't really even feel like running, but Mia texted me and asked me if I wanted to. So I said yes. :)  We were going to run 7, but neither of us felt all that great, and Mia had to be somewhere.  Good run. :)

AM- 1000 repeats! Felt pretty good, and my shoe stayed on!  I got 4:31, 4:22, 4:21, and 4:17.  I got faster every single one!! :)

PM- Easy 3!

AM- easy 3! Felt pretty tired.

PM- 4 miles, with some striders.  My foot was feeling ok, until we did striders, then it started hurting again. :(

AM- Easy 3, felt way tired...

PM- I felt ok for this, just a little sluggish on the warm up.  My breathing was sooo outta whack. I have no idea how to control it.  And my stomach was hurting so bad.  But I finished with a good solid time. :)

AM- well...

PM- Easy 3, to Sandburgs.  My foot hurt like the whole run, but not bad.  It really started hurting after the 200's.  My 200's weren't as good as usual.  It just felt like I couldn't breathe at all. :\

AM- Easy 3!

PM- 3/3s.... well this workout was way hard!  I honestly didn't hit my distance on any of the 4 I did... I didn't know what to do..  The 4x30's were tought too!!  I couldn't breathe at all!!  It was so weird!  And my foot hurt like the whole time. :/  so...

AM- Easy 3! plus some plyos.

PM- Did some 1000's.  Felt way good! Only 3 today! Plus it was my fastest times!!  I got 3:59,4:01, and 4:00.  So way good!!! I stayed pretty close to Mia, in fact I stayed with her the whole time on the first one!! :)  I haven't felt this good in a workout for a long time!  It was awesome!  My foot hurt after... So no bueno.  We were gonna get bags of ice so Ali and I could ice our injuries, but Mark wasn't there to give us bags for the ice!  Sooo that didn't happen!  We were about to leave, but coach got there before we left and said we had weights!  So Ali and I did weights. :)  Overall, great run!!

AM- Easy 3! Felt pretty good!

PM- Did a pretty good workout today!  We did 4 800's on the region course before the rest of the team raced on it.  It was good!  I kept up with Mia on the first one, fell a little behind on second and third, and lead the last one!  My times were 3:12, 3:07 (or something like that), 3:04, and 3:59 (we think the watch was broken or something, cuz i know that I went faster than that, that time's pathetic!).  Good workout. :)  Our team kicked butt today!! So excited for this weekend!!

AM- Easy 3.

PM- Easy 4!

AM- Easy 3

PM- Easy 3 w/ 4 200's

AM- Easy 3.

PM- Race- Felt pretty good!  Got my shoes tied, and made sure that they would stay on the whole time (and it worked! :) I wanted to break 20 sooo bad!!  I have for while, too!  We get up to the line, and I don't really remember what I was thinking at the starting line... but my start was kinda crappy!  Like always.  My first lap, I was just kinda going.  Second lap, I started racing more, third, I just wanted to be done!  Mia was way ahead of me like for the first 2 laps, and I was just thinking that I will let her be in front of me.  But the 3rd lap, I was looking down, instead of looking up, and when I looked up, Mia was right there!  I was like "what the heck?? What is Mia doing here??"  And everyone was telling me to go run with Mia, so I picked it up a little more, and caught up to her.  I kept the same pace, and I guess Mia wasn't really feeling it, cuz she didn't keep up with me. :/  But it was soo muddy and wet!   I was pretty much soaked!!  And thanks to our crazy team for cheering me on!  It helped a lot!!  Glad I finally broke 20! :)

Soo I don't know what the mileage was, so I looked on Ali's and she doesn't know either!  I just did the same mileage as her... But anyways!  It was a pretty good workout on the state course!  My first 3 minute, was kinda slow, but the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th were great!  I was able to keep up with Mia and Coach for most of it!  Almost had a tragedy with Mia... But I was able to jump over her. :)  Hill sprints were good, felt strong!  The finish sprint things, were good too, but not my best.  I just think I was tired!  Over all, it was a good workout!

AM- 2 thousand.  Did pretty good, my time was 8:08, was shooting for 8:00.  I was able to keep up with Mia for the first half, then I started slowing down on the second half. :/  I wish I could've pushed myself a little more, to keep up with her the whole time! But it's still a good time to hit!  The 1000 was good!  My time was 3:56.  So way good!

PM- Easy 3.  I'm just a little sore and stuff. Weights were fun.
