woke up late today. i hate when that happens, but still got there in time to run something. i saw corey kimzey today.. wow that guy has some non hairy legs :) kids club was fun, im kind of sad that it is over. went to coaches party then to the running store to get some racing shoes. tyson kept trying to get me to buy all the expensive shoes. my leg is still hurting in that spot, but hopefully i can take care of it enough to help it heal.

today was one of my hardest runs. this was my first real workout since i've been back. and i pushed a little hard on the first set. woops. the rest i was too tired to keep up. on the way back my stress spot started to hurt a little. i think i will do a swim and bike workout tomorrow.

i wasn't going to run today. but then jake k. inspired me to go and get serious about this season. i learned that i shouldn't go to hard at the beginning of my come back. and i shouldn't be going so small either. so here i go.

todays run was fine. i felt like going three but pushed myself past that spot for one more mile. i'm not sure what to think about my leg anymore so i guess i wont talk about that. took me about 3 mile to really start moving and running solid but it was worth the run.

this week was a good week. i did my first workout and ready for the race this weekend.

it was fun today. and on the way there we saw a sweet car insident. this car ran a red light to go onto the free way and then it saw this cop, that just happened to be there, and he slammed on his brakes and skidded like 5 feet..................... bussted. the cop even shot his tires out so he couldn't go anywhere.

a.m. felt good my left leg hurt last night but after rubbing it for a while it felt good. nice run although. race should be good today.

p.m. i didnt realize that is did a double today..... sweet!

well all day before the race i had horrible butterflies. i hate late races. on the warm up my right foot started to really hurt for some reason, and it never had before. i though maybe it was the new shoes, so i took them off and it felt better within 5 min. then i realized i tied my shoes too tight so that was a relief. felt good warming up and getting ready. but then since it took so dang long for them to start, i got kind of tired.

they shot the gun and the beginning was fine, a nice start and was keeping fine with devin for the first lap. then the cedar air hit me and i couldn't breath very well and i died off far on the second lap. then on the third, i got mad at myself for letting me fall behind so i pushed hard and got jarad and colton and stared casey down until the track, where i passed him. it was a pretty strong finish, but i would have broken 17 but i kind of stoped a few seconds before the finish line.

the cool down felt horrible cause i was sneezing and had a running nose really bad. but that happens every time i go to cedar so im not worried about it.

all in all, i want to get better and start moving up my milage so that i can get better, my goal this season is this catch up to devin and be able have him in sight the whole race. i going to push myself harder and be where i'm supposed to be.

easy 5 today. i was kind of tired from taking care of tyson all day, man what a job! :) but it was a very fun run, with his hot sister kaylee. She is a fun person to run with.

 

this week went over well. the race was about what i hoped to do and. i went up quite a bit in milage but i think i can handle all of it now pretty easily. next week im going to start doing pretty much the full level 2 workouts (with coaches permission).

it was a quick two mile warm up with 2 mile race, then i rushed off to go pick up my brother to find the plane was 30min early *(. the race felt pretty strong, but im not sure because i have no idea what my time was. I got an easy lead at the beginning and held it throughout getting a strong first place... i ran it so fast that they didnt expect me. thats why i think they didnt get my time :)  oh well, i guess that wasn't the point. my legs felt really sore after but they loosened up by 6. felt good.

that really isn't my time, they just made me put one.

5 1000. my stumic felt like poo again but my legs were strong. the first couple felt alright, but i wasn't really in it mentaly, but the 4 and 5 i started thinking about each one individually. and i did well and felt good.

warm up and cool down was hot. we stayed a long time at the running store because we were hot, saw some cute people by hearts. then went lifting. nice but sick day as well. hope i can get over this soon.

am- 3 it was nice, and COOL.

pm. 2.5 warm up 1.5 work out i knew this was going to be a bad day when i spent half of 4th period in a bad place. then practice...... i felt alright through the warm up, but on the first mile tempo i started to kind of puke in my mouth... then on the next one i knew i had to get to the bathroom. came home and napped as long as i could but it's really hard to nap here cause my sister's and spencer kept coming in for some reason.

... i'm not really sure what to think about this race.. it was fun to win my first shirt, but my time i relize.... stunk like a skunk. it was about as fast as my last year time. it kind of made me sad but nothin i can do but try to do better.

ok the race, well i felt really good the whole time until about 5min before it started, then i started to get tired :) , but then we started and running got me awake again. i dragged back a little at the start, and sort of got blocked off, but i made my way through and slowly moved my way up. i felt good and just went a solid pace the whole time. and my thoughts really were nothing... and thats the way to do it, not think. at the end i started to gain on tommy, but i just couldn't quite grasp him and i died off him a little by the end... but im not too worried. it was a really good race but a sad time... we really did pretty good running together there.

today was the best i have felt running that i have ever felt before. i dont know if that is a bad thing or not because does that mean im tapering or reaching my peak too fast? but every one i ran felt good and better. i like 1000 much better than those crusiers we are doing on friday. hope my races can say up and fast throughout this season :)
