2 mile race today! Did 20 min warm with Ry and Carli. Ry and I had a solid first mile with 5:40 but then it went downhill. I stayed on the Wasatch girl for the next 2 laps but fell off the last 2. Her next mile was consistent with her first but mine had 20 seconds added on it haha. It was ok but good to get a feel for it! I know that it really is just being consistent and to keep pushing when it gets tiring. Qualified with 11:39, next time my last 800 is going to be consistent with my others :) 25 min cool. 56 min/6.5 mi

Long run loop to Arctic circle down the Sullivan trail then up 2450 road. My legs are still a little sore but they felt pretty good as I went. Did 2x15 min tempos from 6:50-7 min pace. It felt especially good down by the river:) 80 min/10 mi.

20 min run inside cause of the hail! Got some weird looks from teachers cause of our singing but it was worth it haha :P 2.25 mi

20 min morning went slower than usual cause I was super sore..probably still from the relays/2.2

D-hills race day! I need to work on my 2 mile and 800 but I'm taking the ACT so I ran the mile today! 15 warm up. For the first 1100 meters I stuck on Sarah then the last lap hit me and I didn't stay mentally strong. My laps were around 1:13.5, 1:19.8, 1:18.8, 1:19.8. Time was 5:11:58 So last lap best lap really does make a difference! 38 min cool. 58 min total/ 6.6 mi (guess)

Holy windy run! I ran from my house, past Sullivan park, and flipped just before the light. The first half felt great cause I ran with the wind and was cruisin. The last half was definitely a struggle haha. I had to stop twice cause I felt like I was gonna throw up but other than that, good run and got to clear my mind. I ran 55 min cause by then I was home and feeling pretty sick to my stomach:/

20 easy morning run/2.25 mi

Distance carnival at dhills today! Chill meet but it was fun! The 4x1600 was pretty windy for half the track so had to push the first 200 more to make up for the last. I didn't make up for it tho haha, ended with 5:26. 2 mile later with all the girls! Had a pretty solid pack for the first 3-4 laps. Then split a bit. Jess and I broke some wind for Caroline but we were too slow for her! She killed it and and qualified ending in the 11:30s!! I fell a ton in the last 2 laps again..Got a big stomach ache and ended with 11:53. My cold really kicked in:/ Goals for next time and how: Get same split for both miles and practice everyday finishing stronger! 60 min/7.5 mi

Dixie invite! Warmed 20 min, left foot started to hurt this day, then into the 1600. Wow much needed improvement and lots to learn from this race! First lap was around 1:19. Dead. I never brought myself to just get up front and race my race! I stayed with Mic who runs a different way than me. The last lap I didn't have a good kick and mic, along with some dhills girls passed me. Ended with 5:16, 5th. I realized I can't depend on others to run the race for me. I have to get out and hit my laps like we hit our workouts! Cool 35 min. 55 total/6.8 mi

Dixie invite part 2! Warmed 25 min for the 800. Discovered from yesterday that if I'm not in the mindset of racing, I'm not racing, so prepped myself to be more mentally prepared. The first lap was good but as I hit the second I knew I had to be faster. On the 300 I started moving up and kicked the last 100! Got cut off at the end but made it with 2:23.53! Next time I'm gonna kick at the 200. Cool 40 min. 65 min total/7.3 mi

El, ad, and I ran earlier at 5! We did the Foremaster loop. Felt super great for 30 min but then I kept feeling that familiar ache on the side of my left foot. I didn't go as quick on the fartlecks (1,2,1,2,1) and finished a bit slower as the pain worsened:/ it hurt really bad, so after hanging posters I iced on and off for about 40 min. It helped for a little but it started hurting again soon. (60 min total)

Took afternoon run off and talked to the physical therapist. She advised replacing some running time with cross training that wouldn't put stress on my foot, like biking or swimming. Also more icing and stretching!

Morning workout. The warm-up and 5 tempo hurt really bad and had to stop once but I realized it didn't hurt when I picked my feet up faster and got moving. The first set of 200, 400, 800, 400, 200 hurt a bit because my foot burned. The second was the opposite! Totally normal and I was able to finish those repeats with faster splits! Good workout, everyone did good today! 65 min/7.8 mi

Replaced afternoon run with biking. Went with my sister about 8 miles it was really fun :)

Orem tiger trials!! Cooold meet with some wind but no rain:) The 1600 was pretty good, need to work on 2nd lap keeping it solid after the first. But most of all to just keep fighting, got a 5:12, 4th. S/o to Jada for pr'ing a good amount and winning her heat!! First lap of 800 I tried to get in the mix towards the front of the group but by the second lap I was already getting passed a lot. Last 300 I ran alone and ended with 2:28. Tiring race but it'll get better! Lastly, the 4x400! Jada and Caroline started awesome with 1:04/5's then to Jos, then me. Got around a 1:05. Around 65 min total/7.8 mi
