Workout was 20x400s, longest speed workout I have done. We split it up into sets of 5 starting out slower and progressively got faster with each set. I hit:

1) 89, 89, 87, 86, 88

2) 83, 83, 84, 85, 84

3) 82, 82, 81, 80, 81

4) 78, 78, 78, 76, 77

Then cooled down a mile.

AM: 4 miles easy PM: Today coach said we could go easy and not to go too fast, which I was really excited about! It was farm run out and back. I felt alright, but I'm sore from yesterday. Though coach said we could go slow we still went 7:31 average, which I was a bit bugged about cause I was thinking we'd be going closer 8:00 pace. But you know it's ok I don't want to complain.

Today we did wmups, form mile, then did a mile warmup and started the 80%. We did 3.5 lps on the track, then went out on the road up to Home Depot where we finished. It i just over miles. I looked back to the last time we did it and it was shorter because we didn't run as long on the track. This time around I hit 21:32, 7:00 pace. It is all uphill and it was really windy today and we were going against the wind, so that made it difficult. Last time I averaged 7:06 and I believe the conditions were good, and I feel like I worked hard today. So I am happy with it. I maybe would have stuck on the front pack if I were to do it again, I was iffy about it this time because I didn't want to go out too fast and crash but I think if I could have kept up with the group I could have gone faster. My first mile was 5:44, then we hit the uphill and it slowed us down. But I'm satisfied with what I did and will just use it as a learning experience for the next time we do it. Afterward whistle hills on the hill by Chevron (the dirt hill ind Home Depot was now a mud hill).

Today was a really busy day and quite honestly I was just out of it. But you know, we all have those days. I had to cover my hours for study hall before tomorrow because we are traveling to the meet, and so I did that before the team meeting, then after the team meeting I wasn't expecting to have to fill out insurance info, so I ran out of time faster than I realized. Part of the probem was that I forgot that we had weights today, so instead of having 1.5 hours to run I had less than a half hour. Got in 3 miles then went to weights.

First collegiate track meet! Wasn't an awesome meet for me, but coach said to expect slow times. It's at 7000 ft elevation and its the first meet of the season.

AM shakeout mile

Warmup 1 mile, mile race, 1 mile cool down. 1 mile warmup, 3k race, 3.3 mile cool down.

Mile Race: I felt like I didn't go as fast as I could have, I relaxed maybe too much. Kind of felt like I was just running it, never really transitioned to competitive mode. I felt kind of lethargic for both races.

3k: My plan going into it was to find someone to stick to and not let them go. I was surprised when it went out slow. Just tucked behind Kaylee cause she was closest to me, and ran with her for 2-3 laps. It began to feel slow, I felt I could go faster. But told myself to wait, it would get harder. Then Brighton and another girl caught up, Brighton went right in front? Of Kaylee and the other girl kept going. She started to make a gap between us, that's when I said what the heck and surged up to her and tucked behind her. This pace wasn't too bad but was fast enough to make me push. With about 2 laps to go I mentally died because I didn't know how many more laps were left (same thing happened in the mile) and thought we had more than we actually did. Feel off the girl and Brighton caught me, then another girl, tried to go with. Ended up with 11:24. I was again disappointed with the time, but I know my inexperience contributed and I'm maybe still in XC mode. I need to work on mentality, everything else is there.

After the 3k my hip started to hurt, it doesn't feel like muscle pain it feels more like the joint. It warmed up on the cool down though.
