I ran 4 today with JP, Mia and Frida!  It was a great run!  It didn't even feel like 4!  We got to pet horses and mia and I, (being the horse-naming pros) named them prego-man, one sock, and no socks!  Great names, huh?  We thought so too!  Then we chilled at Frida's and ate her cereal! ...Thanks Frida! :)

Today I ran 4 with Kaylee, Mia, and JP.  It was a lot later in the day...because we may or may not of slept in super late...so it was pretty warm out!  We ran the same run as yesterday and tried to meet our friendly horses again...but they obviously didn't want to see us and ran to the far corner of the field!  Oh well...it was a fantastic run anyway!  Even if some dingle-brain locked us all out of her car!

Today we got to run 5 with the team.  Piece of cake, right? ...Wrong!  I felt SO pooped!  Good thing we took a small break at Boulavards...and DID NOT get in trouble for horsing around (which we didnt't)...coach!!!  You fibber you!  So me, baby boyer, mia and jp ran together...since some of the other girls ditched us...and we had a great time, didn't we?

Today was a trail run and I was SO excited because I love running on trails...until I started this one!  I felt okay at first and was chatting away...to no one really...but as we got along I was panting and couldn't bring myself to talk or anything.  And once I thought we had at least gone 4 miles...they told us to turn around and do the trail all over again!  It definately took some effort...and then coach came along and everyone started pushing the pace so we could impress him!  But overall...I guess is was a good run...I'm just a little out of shape!

Today we ran Double Churches.  It was a pretty good run.  Nothing too exciting happened...although...Roberts came along!!!  I was so happy that he could join us!  I miss running with that guy every day!

Today we ran the river run!  I was so happy because I had been previously told that we had a speed workout today...*cough* frida *cough* ;)  But it was a great run, although no one let me jump in the river, I had a good time!

Today we ran in Green Springs for our trail run.  Parts of the run were hard like those huge hills that never ever ended and I wasn't enjoying myself.  but other parts were fun and it was SO pretty out there!  I loved it...for the most part!

Total Distance

Today we ran 6 to Green Pole...but we never really went to the green pole!  We went to the start of Hell Hole instead..and then headed back.  It was a nice run and I felt pretty good!  Oh, and we ran by the courthouse thingy and the bell rang both times we went by!...pretty magical, I know!!!

Today I ran 4 out in St. George by the Dixie Center with Sam.  It was a great run although a little chilly!  We sped past all the slowpokes and even set a building on fire because we were SO fast!  I went by way too fast but I enjoyed it while it lasted! :)

Today me and JP met up at the school and ran 'green pole' because we didnt know any other 6 milers.  It was a fun run and kinda quiet...but that's okay because sometimes its nice to just think about things while you run!

Today we ran 5 out to 'fire station'!  It was fun running with all the girls and we saw some interesting things...like doll's heads hanging in trees...creepiest thing I've ever seen!!!  But it was a nice run overall!

Today we ran 'Dog Pound'.   Honestly...not my favorite!  Me and JP kept falling behind the group and so to make up for it we freshman raced it back to the school!  And...not to mention names...but we beat Kaylee!  Pretty sure it took all her willpower to not race with us!

Today was a love/hate run!  I hated it because it was absolutely HORRENDOUS going up.  Coach said it was pretty nice on the top of the hill...but I'm pretty sure we never found the top of the hill...because it never got 'pretty nice'....it just kept going and going and going uphill!  I loved it because we had a blast zipping down the trail!  We could just let go and the hill would do the work for you!  ...pretty sure Kaylee slid down half the hill...because there's no other way she got down that huge hill that fast!  It was a great run...only on the second half though!

Today we ran 6 out to Washington Fields.  It was a okay run.  We stopped at the river on our way back and were going to swing on a rope over the river but...kaylee was too chicken! ..and she probably would've fallen in if she had done it!

Today we ran 6 on the Shoe Run!  My personal favorite!  It felt great and me and jp even found two golf balls that we enjoyed bouncing the whole way!...even if some people got annoyed by it!  It was a great run even if Jared randomly decided to join us and push the pace!  But it was a good run..the end!

today we ran green springs...after much debate and yelling (good thing

Frida was there to help us out!)  It was a good run!  The weather was

just fabulous!  We saw multitudes of  rabbits on Quail Ridge and dogs

everywhere.  It went by pretty quick and I felt great!  da end!

Today we ran 5.5...because we obviously dont know our runs very well!  We ran 'Shoe run'...again! But I'm not complaining because I love that run!  Me and JP got Rudolph and Randolph..(our beloved golfballs)..and bounced them the whole way...well...most of the way! We were going to jump in Sandburgs Pond...but then Megan reminded us of the hives she got from it...so we decided otherwise!   It was a great run and it went by fairly quick!  Then we did striders and weight lifting...bleck!  JP did her first set of the bench press (that slacker!) and lets just say...it was humorous! :P

Trail Run Thursday!!!  Yay!  today we went up the the Temple Quarry site by the St. George airport.  It started out way nice and got kinda hilly as we went but it was way fun!  Me and Kaylee pushed the pace and were flying (not on purpose)!  On the hill Kaylee pushed me...I wanted to stop..and i did a few times but she'd keep yelling at me that we only had .005 to go...yeah, it was a big pile of bull crap...but it kept me going!  Then JP caught us on the turn-around and told us to slow our horses downs!...except we went flying agian...this time with me, kaylee AND Jp!  It was a lot of fun and was a challenging kinda trail...but not too bad!

Today we ran Hospital...I'm not sure why...because its the most horriblest run in thee world!  But we survived...dont you worry!  I tried to get kaylee to run a different route but she wouldn't listen to me!  Then when we ran by the park for water, the drinking fountains were all broke!  After we were done I felt great from accomplishing that nasty 7 miler!

Today we ran 6 in green springs!  I missed monday because of ap bio so my legs didn't feel so great.  But I had a good time with everyone!  We only stopped twice...i promise coach!  Once to use the restroom at the park in green springs then another time because kaylee had to pee....again!  But it was just a slow day for all us girls!  But on the way back we had some adventures with kaylee's face!  We dragged it along a wall, hit it on some signs, stuck it in a bush and even slapped kaylee's butt with her own face!  hahaha!  then we just abandoned her face in a bush!  the end!

So i had an ap bio lab today...so I only managed to squeeze 3 in. We kinda had to book it so I could make it and everyone was mad at me for pushing the pace but I eventually turned around and so they were happy again!  But I still had to book it back!  I seriously was going like a 6min. pace!  And yet, I was still late to the lab!  oh well!

AM-I got succored into morning practice by Mia/I've missed a bit of running this week and felt kinda guilty!  So I went 3 this morning and froze off my poor little hands....no one mentioned that it'd be cold!  sheesh! ;)  

PM-Trail day!  yay!  We went up to Dixie rock and ran right by there!  Some dingleberries thought that is was for sure a loop...and it wasn't!  So when we figured it out we stopped and to turn around....with a whole extra mile that we had accidentily done!  We tried to cut off as much as we could but it didnt help much...then 'someone' kept getting us lost!  not sure who would do that....  but we eventually found our way...even if it wasn't the right way, it led us to where we needed to go!  And then we got chastised for walking and going to far!  it was all claudia's fault!

When i discovered we were going 8...i decided to go golfing! ;)  except i knew coach would give me a high five...in the face...with a chair!  so me and jp decided to go!  we were then forced into running parkway...bleck!  It wasn't too bad...it just felt supah long!  But i felt great after we had finished!

Glad to see you got the miles in! I ran for BYU-H back in the day. Coach K is awesome. I hope your dream comes true.

Hey, you've changed some info on the sidebar, and, surprise, surprise, it's funnier. You're awesome, kid.

I ran a 5k for the Children of Hope in the morning!  I ran with JP and Mia and felt great the whole time!  Plus there were delicious oranges after we finished running!  Then later I biked like 6 miles...so I think that can count for 3 miles in running!  And I got some battle wounds...so that makes it count even extra!!  The end

AM- Ran 3 in the morning at 6am...oh wait...someone was SO late that we actually ran at 6:30am!  So now we have a rule that we leave at 6 no matter what!...not sure how well that'll work out!

PM-we had to run old man hills...bleh.  We had 2 sets of 200, 800, 200.  It was hard and felt kinda weird to actually sprint again....but it wasn't that bad.  

Total Distance

Today we ran out to Washington!  I was opposed to it at first but it turned out okay...except my stomach felt weird the whole time...it felt like someone was yanking on my belly button!...sorry, too much info, huh?  But other than that, it was fun!  We discovered JP is a OBW (Official Bird Whisperer)...but in reality...I'm the bird whisperer!  And I got a valentine on my run!...from JP....but that's a minor unimportant detial!  Anyways, it was a good run!  da end!

PM-We ran our last trail run today... :(  I love trail runs and will sincerely miss them! *sniff* *sniff*   Roberts came and I was so excited!  It was all uphill at first but it got better as we went along!  We got lost a couple times....it was Claudia's fault.  And we saw some helicopters that were super loud and then we drank a water bottle that we found...it was sanitary, i promise!  I think the run was 6...but thats very questionable...it felt very much like 7 or even 8!

Today Mia, Frida and I all met up at Frida's...after waking some lazy girl up!  sheesh! And then we ran to the high school and signed up for the Taleah 5k!  I was kinda nervous because coach said to push it hard...I was kinda hoping the night before that I wouldn't have enough money to do the race so I could skip out...but i didn't!...so dont you fret!  The race started out kinda fast but I eased into it and tried to stay with Kaylee but she decided she wanted to run with Josh instead and took off!  But I tried my best and beat this annoying man who kept yelling at people to move for him!  It was a fun race!  And I even got a little medal and a life strength bracelet...that most definitely works  JP!..no doubt about it!  Then we ran a 1 mile cool down and went on our merry way home!

Today we ran Sunrise Hills...bleh!  3 full hills and 4 half hills...which really wasn't too bad compared with previous hill workouts.  It was a hard workout but very satisfying.  JP felt sick and had to sit for a while...I hope this doesn't happen too often, because I need her there to push me!  It was a pretty good workout but it really pooped me out.....that sounds kinda icky...what I meant to say is that the workout cause me to feel poopy/supah tired inside!

PM-Time Trial! yay!  I wasn't too excited for this but I knew I had to do it anyway...no matter how much whining I gave to coach.  One the first lap I remembered why I hated track but it got a little easier from there.  I kept getting a side ache though and that did not help at all!  The last lap i was pushing it and made the mistake of telling JP to come with me!  sheesh!  that girl just zoomed right past me!  It wasn't the best race and got me kinda down for the track season...I hope I can do better for real races.

PM-Today we ran to Washington Fields to that loner house!  the only reason I like this run is because we can whisper to the birds!   I felt kinda crappy and we got on some pretty interesting subjects and Kaylee told some sketchy stories that we really did NOT want to hear!...sheesh...those darn seniors!

Longest run I've ever run!  I was pretty scared at first but it wasn't even that bad!  I felt super great at first and told JP and Kaylee that but they quickly reminded me that we weren't even to mile marker 2 yet...The hell hole part was fun and went by fast.  After that it got a little harder and we started to lose JP.  We were really counting on Mia to get her back with us but it didn't happen.  Me and kaylee kept going pretty strong and were looking up ahead for girls that we could beat because we wanted to be in the top 10!  And then we even beat this old man that me and kaylee had been watching and wanted to go with because he had a good pace!  After that Kaylee got a little too excited about passing people and kept leaving me!  When i could catch my breath I'd yell and her and speed up to her but after a while I kinda gave up and stayed behind her.  I was only about 100 meters behind her at the finish but still...and when I heard them say 'Kaylee boyer, Women's 3rd Finisher' i just started sprinting!  I really wanted to place so I was able to beat one more lady and I'm pretty sure I got 5th in womens!  It was a fun race...although very long.  But i liked it and wouldn't mind doing it again!

Hoorah..we had six 800's at an interval pace which was like 3:08.  But we started as 3:04 then steadily into the two's.  Coach ran with us and it was so nice!  He runs like he's going slow, so I think I'm going slow..so I just feel great!  But I felt like he really pushed me.  But my shins hurt like crap..

Ran green springs loop with 20min. tempo.  I tried to tell Kaylee that my poor little shins couldn't handle it but she made me do it anyway...and I felt fine.  I stuck with Kaylee for the whole tempo but fell a little behind at the last part...only because she sped off to say hi to her dad who rode by!  

I consider our angels landing hike to count as 3 miles...it was tough stuff!

Ran 5 in Coral Canyon...worst place to run...ever!  First of all, it was really hot and secondly, coral canyon is just not the place to run.  It's full of hills and creepers in the bushes!  I didn't feel very good during it and to make it worse...kaylee led us astray, that punk!  ...So I added a .05 to my mileage because of it!  But swimming afterwards felt pretty great!

So after a long process of debating where to run and if we should wear safety goggles and what not...we decided to run at the rec center!  After passing through tight security we ran 2 miles on the treadmills while watching puppies, harry potter, and nascar.  After 2 miles we got bored and ran 1 on the track then 1 on the treadmill...and then its all a blur.  But it was fun i guess!

PM- Workout today...2x1000 and then 4x200 then repeat with DI warm/Hart's cool.  I felt like poo.  I relied of Frida greatly to get my spirits up.  I wanted to just quit and sit down and eat some ice cream while someone gave me a massage and fanned my face....is that too much to ask? ;)  But I made it...barely...I'm just so pooped from this week!

PM-Pine View Invite!  I was super excited today and tried to keep my nerves down so I wouldn't freak out.  But the race didn't turn out too well...and i don't know why!  I felt fine, I was confident but I just couldn't keep up or something.  I don't remember track being so fast!...I think I'm still stuck in the cross country mode and this race really took me by surprise.  But tomorrow I'm determined to be ready and do better.

Ran a 2 mile warmup.  I started the race out strong but once again I found it hard to keep up.  I was staying with Frida but some random man shouted that me and Frida were slowing down and so a billion girls passed us and separated me from Frida...and I never caught up...mistake #1.  I kept falling behind little by little but it wasn't as bad as the mile.  At the end I thought I was in last so I sprinted and ended up passing 2 more girls and qualifying for state!  ...that was pretty much my whole goal and I was excited for that!

Total Distance

AM-Arctic Circle

PM-Ran 8 miles with 4 sets of tempo mixed in it.  It was 2min. hard (1min. cool), 1min. hard (30sec. cool) then 30 sec. hard (30 sec. cool) then repeat....4 times!!!  I was dying by the third one and the fourth I pushed it hard just because I knew I was almost done.  But the rest of the run felt really long and slow.  Oh, and my shin is hurting like a ______(fill in the blank with something that hurts a lot...no vulgarness please!)  But really, it hurt way bad!!!  Especially after our tempo.  Me and Kaylee took an ice bath afterwards...which helped a ton...but I'm worried it'll be back tomorrow!  I hate this!...why can't my shins just feel fine and stop giving me grief!

Today I ran up at my reunion...this is a big achievement...considering

that Rachel never runs when she's on vacation!  My dear father offered

to run with me but I only saw him for about %10 of the run!  We ran up

this dirt road and I think its really high altitude up here because I

couldn't breathe until i was halfway through my run!  But it was a nice

run...mostly because its cool and soo pretty!

Today I ran at reunion again!...look at me go..*sniff*...im just so proud! ;)  I thought it'd be fun to run up this trail me and my dad found...bad idea.  It was ALL uphill!  And the altitude didn't help one bit!  But the top of the trail had a great view of the Bear Lake...so it was kinda worth it...kinda.

Today I finally got to come back to practice!  We ran out to the dirt mile, and I about died.  I felt like poo and kept getting side aches.  Perhaps it was because I had no dinner or breakfast...just maybe!  Yeah, i'm never missing a meal again!  We got to run will Kaelie (sorry if i spelt it wrong!) and Liz!  That was fun but I'm pretty sure they'll be the death of me!  they're speedy and they don't skimp out on that last lap! ;)  I can't wait for the season because they're going to do so good!  and they'll probably help me do better too!

Today I had the dumbest most un-epic run ever! ...just keeding! It was pretty much the exact opposite! Mia, JP and I drove out to the Motel 6 by Denny's and ran back to green springs! We had to make up some mileage to get up to 5 so we had a ball running through middleton and playing on their playground and with this creepy telephone thingy they had at the playground, screaming at a bunny who 'looked' super fake...but wasn't!  And we also gave eachother rides in a shopping cart, ran through the green springs golf course and ran through the sprinklers!  It was sooo much fun!  We definitely should do these kind of runs more often! :)

Today we had grass runs! first we ran around the neighborhood to get mileage in and then we ran grass loops! Thing is, some dumb-bummy told us that we had run 2.8 so us girls figured we only had to run 7 grass loops...but in reality we had only run 1.8 and needed 12 grass loops!  I was very angry...okay not very angry but i was a bit perturbed.  So we kept running and it was super super hot and sweaty because of the nasty humidity!  It just about killed me! ;)  oh, and we had good ol' striders afterwards!

Yesterday I had to make an announcement in front of everyone at leadership camp to get running buddies to come with me at 5:30am and run or else I couldn't go running at all!  Everyone probably thought I was crazy but luckily I got 2 people to show up in the bitter cold morning...I honestly hoped that no one would show up so I could go back to my warm bed...but no such luck.  So me and some really buff sprinter dude and jessica's roommates brother ran together!  The sprinter man ran super fast the whole time and pushed our pace!  When we finally turned around we found a wild cat and the roommate kid thought it was pretty funny to kick it...I did not find it that amusing. at all.  So after kicking the wild cat we ran back and I had to settle for 3 since the sprinter dude was getting worn out...maybe because we we're going so flippin fast!  anyways...I'm just glad I got the chance to run!

After missing Wednesday's run because of my faulty alarm clock and receiving hate mail from angry runners who expected me to be there...I decided I could not miss today!  The thing is...all those angry runners didn't even show up...those bums!  So it was just me and Jessica's roommate's brother!  We ran pretty much around the whole town (it's a very small town).  It was kinda quite for the most part considering we were pretty much strangers, but we talked here and there!  He only wanted to go 3 but it ended up being much longer...whoops!  It was a good run overall though!

Today I did not want to get up at 5:30am again so I decided to run when I got home.  So me and JP met at the high school later in the day and ran 5 to the double washington churches.  It was a okay run...I was just SO out of shape and the heat killed me!  but on the bright side we saw a skunk!  it was so cute!  we also got yelled at twice...which I did NOT appreciate!  it always scares the heck out of me!...so dont do it!  or I will write down your license plate number and track you down. with a knife. and maybe a gun. and perhaps my mom.  But not really! ...I'm not that weird, sheesh!

PM-We ran 3 with the boys...it was mia's idea.  And it turned out to be alright!  I thought we would die and fall back but we actually led them most the way...i think they went easy on us and let us lead them though! ...Kaylee would be proud none the less!

AM-Today we had a hill workout in Hells Hole.  Four 1min. sprints then five 30sec. sprints.  The sprints were fine and the girls really stuck to it and pushed me to go faster.  The way out of hells hole was horrible as usual!  I felt good halfway up then I felt like I had to throw up and my stomach really tightened up.  So Roberts being the good man he is, let me relax and we took it easy on the way back.

PM-I met up with Mia and JP...after creeping on Kaylee and being a great support team in her...tough times! ;)  Then we ran from the log lane church to the river and back.  Of course we jumped in!...and we may or may not have spent at least 15min. in the river.  It just felt soo nice!  and you could actually swim in it because it was flooded!  but it was also super dirty and we got 'instatans' from all the mud!  Then on our way home we found a wounded bird named 'Luck'....pretty sure Mia stepped on him!  But we sprinted to our cars...for the sake of the poor bird...and then we grabbed some towels and a basket and rescued Luck!  ...except he died. But we tried our best by feeding him and dripping water into his mouth and soon after jp and mia left he died in my arms!  It was quite the traumatic experience...i don't know if I can get over it. I buried him and made him a little headstone though. We will never forget our little friend!

One of my favoritest races!  The start was a bit more nerve-racking than usual with Cam Levin's gun not working then a false start because the time didn't start...bleh, I like it when the start goes fast...and this one didn't.  Our start was kinda slow and me and JP both know that we need to work on getting to the front at the beginning.  I think I took coach's 'take it easy on this uphill' a little too much to heart...because I should've pushed it and got in that front pack as soon as I could've instead of waiting...next time though!  I'm determined to do better!  The whole race felt really good overall and I'm positive I can push it more and get up to Aimee.  So overall it was a good race but our next race we're going to stick to Aimee!

Not too shabby I guess.  It was a hard workout but I felt really strong and afterwards I didn't feel like crawling into a hole and dying!  

PM-Ran 3 miles on a run we made up!  Twas quite the adventure!  We had turns saying 'left, right or straight ahead'.  We ended up going to sandstone, running through the playground, behind the movie theatere and over to baby G's house for some delicious water!  Then we went back and it turned out to be exactly 3!  It was one of the funner runs for sure!

Afternoon-3 miles at Sugarhouse Park! 

Race!-I must say that I love the Murray Course!  It's like you're a running Pocahantos!  Before the race I felt like a needed to eat some more but I turned out feeling alright.  The start was a mad house and I got trapped behind a billion hobos.  It eventually thinned a little and I was looking for JP's hair because I had lost her in the madness.  I kept passing people determined to get up to JP and help her out.  I eventually got her and said 'come on'...more like mumble it...so I really said 'csagdhl onsdahg'.  I was kinda confused on the course so I thought we were turning back to the finish when we really had another loopy thingy so that took me by surprise.  The finish went well though...mostly because I passed the girl I had been battling with the whole run.

Total Distance
10.00

AM: Workout! 4x30 sec F pace w/ 1 min rec, 3x800 I pace w/ 2 mine rec, 3x1000 T pace w/ 1 min rec. Felt lovely. Watched JP's flowing hair the entire time. I was mesmerized. The end. Just kidding! It was a hard workout and I didn't feel that great, but whatever. 

PM: 3 miles to Arctic Circle. Slowest 3 miles EVA because some hobo kept laughing and couldn't run at the same time. Sheesh.

AM: 3 to Arctic Circle with striders. Screamed at some random men. Fun fun.

PM-Had team time trial!   Ran DI warm up then we had our race. I felt pretty good the whole time and I improved my time by 13 seconds.  The only annoying thing was that I kept slipping around in the mud.  Afterwards we did a Harts cool down then we did 5 hill sprints which turned out to not be as bad as we thought!

Total Distance
7.50

AM-Did 4 with all the uninjured ladies.  Was a fun morning run.

PM-Ran 3 to Hot Nails.  Roberts started coaching us today...weird!  Some nice man gave me a water bottle from his smelly office...it really did have a...different...smell.  Mia secretly wanted me to get kidnapped by the nice man.  We did weights and plyos afterwards. Felt pretty good and we did partner stretching which really really helped!...perhaps I should do it more often.

AM-Ran 3 to arctic circle with 4 200's afterwards.  On our way to the track we witnessed this big bright line in the sky then it went up and fizzled out and it turned into this squiggly glowing cloud!  It was the coolest thing ever!  Plus little men popped out of it and a black hole formed and an oil drilling rig from Romulan appeared looking for Spock!  It was Cra-Zay!

AM-Arctic circle 3

PM-Ran 3 at sugarhouse....Mia found an iphone.  But I found 10 iphones..so I win!

RACE-Ran Herriman for the first time!  I must first say that this is probably the hardest course I have ever run!  I have never felt like collapsing before until this race.  The start was fine and I got a good spot on the first hill because people were going pretty slow on it.  On the top JP ran with and pushed me down the hill then back up the wash thingy.  The second hill was tiring but I still felt alright and the big loop up through the sunflower field let me calm down my breathing.  Going down the hill again killed my toes and then came mutha cussa! I hadn't seen the hill until I was right there racing...so after my eyes had a heart attack from just seeing the hill I went up and up and up and up.  I almost felt like stopping because of the dumb sand but I kept going...and my pace at the top of the hill was...lets just say it was not very fast at all.  I tried to calm my breathing and speed up but I felt soo tired from this course!  It wears you out really fast!  My finish was a bit faster but by no means a sprint.  Overall a fun and very challenging course.

Total Distance
7.00

Ran 7 today with Mia and JP.  We ran out towards the airport.  It seemed to go by really fast considering it was a 7 miler.  Our last mile was hard for our workout and it went well.  I was reluctant to start it at first but once I got into it, it wasn't that bad.

Total Distance
11.00

AM-Ran 5 with the last 2 miles indian runs.  Pretty much the funnest indian run ever!  When we went up to the front of the line we had themes to follow.  For example, our first theme was cowboy so we ran to the front while we 'rode' on a horse.   Then we did ballerinas(roberts loved this one), rockets, starships, motercycles, trees, etc.  It made the run go by really fast!  Afterwards we had four 200's

PM-Ran 3 with stadium sprints, 100sprints, weights and plyos.  

Total Distance

AM-Ran 3 with striders afterwards.  our toes froze...literally!

PM-Ran 3 to hot nails.  Partner stretched so I felt really good afterwards

AM: Michigan w/ 1 miles warm/cool. They actually weren't too bad.  Everything went well and I felt like we were pushing hard.  The last little bit of the last 800 I fell back and never got back up on the track.  next time I'll do better.  My time was 28:43

PM: 3 miles and 2x400's with weights and plyos afterwards. We ran out to 2450 but we made it up as we went so it was an adventure!

Total Distance
7.00

AM-Ran 3 with 4 200's afterwards.

PM-Ran 3 to good ol' sandburgs!  Had a nice swim...although afterwards my eyes swelled up...probably from the cow poo in the water.

AM-Ran 3 to arctic circle

PM-Nebo, nebo nebo...  I felt pretty good before the race and was ready to go...but i tripped.  some hobo accidentally cut me off so I tripped and tripped JP!  Thanks heavens they restarted the race!..or else me and jp would have had some catching up to do!  The second start was fine although I was still kinda jittery from falling and was self conscious of where my feet were going. The first mile was kinda crowded and people kept elbowing and shoving me!  It was just a physical race I guess!  2 random girls from other schools kept pushing me and helping me keep going and in the end I was 6th with a time of 19:59!  And I beat that hurricane girl!  So now I just need to catch Aimee!

Today we did a workout at sugarhouse park.  it was 2minH+1minE, 1minH+30secE, 30secH+30secE then repeat!  It wasn't too bad and I like that course so it was fun.  Then we ran to the jv race and watched them kick some patooty!

Total Distance
10.00

AM-Workout today! hip hip hooray! We had 3 30sec. hard, 3 800's, then 2 1000's indian style! The 30sec were fine and 800's I had to work harder to stick in all the way and the 1000's went well. I love doing indian runs with 1000's and I think it helps all the girls stick it in as long as they can.  twas a good workout.

PM-Ran 3 to greensprings with 4 hillsprints then 4 100 sprints and weights and plyos.  I felt like poo for the weights and plyos...I think I was just worn out from our workout this morning.  Coach Holt is the greatest ever... just wanted to throw that out there - discuss...

AM- Michigans today!  We had to do it all on the track because of the broken power line so it was a total of 17 laps!  Sounds horrible but it really wasn't all that bad.  I felt strong throughout the whole thing and I really liked being able to see the clock because that took my mind off of how I felt. Overall it was an awesome workout.  oh, and my end time was 27:31! 

PM-Ran 3 to the sportmans run that I guess Mia made up.  Liz got tripped by some rocks today!  Those darn rocks have it out for us!...Nicole is next.  Afterwards we had 2 400's which felt alright.  Weights and Plyos killed me again...I think I was worn out from michigans or something.

AM-Ran 3 and felt tired again.

PM-Cedar Meet today.  My start wasn't too great and I was a lot farther behind than I would have liked to be.  But I pushed up there and caught up eventually.  I stuck with some girl from salem hills.  I felt like I was pushing the whole time although I didn't feel really great.  I felt short of breath and worn out which hasn't happened this season until this race.  I did beat my pr from last year by 25 seconds though.  Overall it was a good race, but definitely not a great one.

AM- 3 1mile repeats and 4 200's with pizza hut warm and cool.  the mile repeats went well and I felt fine during all of them.  I thought the first 200 was a 400 so I was quite confused when everyone was killing it...but I figured it out.  Really good workout I think.

PM-Ran 3 miles with 4 stadium hill sprints then 4 100 sprints.  It was a good run...even if we did make fun of boberts for a good part of it!

Marathon today!  I obviously didn't run it...but i helped pass out water to half dead runners!  Mia and I both missed our alarms and missed our police escort to our aid station...so we drove over there to see if we could still make it and the cop we talked to told us better luck next year and we might as well go jump in a lake...he was a punk. BUT, mia and I, being the fugitives we are, parked the car and ran over there against the cops orders! mwahaha!  So we started around mile 25-ish and ran up to mile 22.  There were cops everywhere but we went into stealth mode and dodged them all!!!...they actually just waved to us as we ran by...but whatever!  When we finally got there we were welcomed by doughnuts and chocolate milk!  After a little bit we ran up the marathon course with Kaylee and Rachel H. and back to finish our 6 miler.  twas a good run!

AM-Ran 3 to arctic circle like usual.

PM-Region!!!  I haven't felt so nervous for a race in quite a while!  I was kinda feeling sick and my legs felt weird but I kept telling myself it was just nerves and in the end, it went away in the race so that was good.  My start was pretty good...actually it was great, because I didn't trip this time!  JP moved up so I went with her and I was looking everywhere for that hurricane girl because coach had told me to go with her but i couldn't find her so I went right up with aimee.  I felt fine the first lap but on the second lap I started to fade a little off of aimee and stuck with the hurricane girl.  The last lap I wasn't feeling too great and my negative thoughts were going crazy but as I came close to the finish I knew I had to get the hurricane girl and I kicked it before she could and beat her.  Honestly, I have never ever felt so tired at the end of a race.  I felt like collapsing which is unusual for me.  I felt like I gave it my all and i hope to do the same at state!

PM-Ran 4 up to green springs.  It was a good run..although the girls left me and mia when we went to the restroom! rude.  So we decided that we'd have to beat them to the school.  we did kinda run willy nilly through an intersection...safely of course...but we did end up winning!

Had state today...obviously.  I was feeling pretty good and confident before the race...and also very nervous but I just tried to push that away.  The start was pretty good and the first 800 or so I was passing people to get to a good spot.  The hill I gained on a lot of girls which was nice and the second hilly part after the pond I caught some girls too but at the top of that hill I got really out of breath and I never seemed to catch it until the finish. then I started to get cramps as we came around the pond so I just tried my best to stick in and push to the end.  I got 10th and my time improved from last year by 7 seconds.  I wish I had a better race so I could've improved more but it is what it is

Sunrise tires! hoooorraaay!  I felt fine of the first three but coming down on the third by stomach cramped up and I tried to get it to leave by breathing deep but it just got worse and worse.  I took it easy with Roberts for the last hill but it didnt seem to help much.  It felt tight the whole way back.

Today I ran a trail run with Mia and JP.  Coach has had us run pretty much every trail in Washington County so it was super hard to find a new trail.  Mia was being frugal with her gas so we had to stop earlier than presumed.  We ran out to these random hills and went through a fence and found various items that had been shot to smithereens...so we were filled with trepidation.  But we continued onward despite our fears and had a grand ol' time...JP and Mia's report on the run, although, may be contrary to mine. The end! ...I hope you enjoyed my big vocabulary
