Went to the oval today, my carpool was late so I only got 4 laps warmup 4 laps speed changes. I hurried to the line so that I could start with the group. Workout was 1000, 800, 2x400s, and 3x200s. When I saw them lining up at the 1000 mark I assumed it was the 5x1000 workout, so when I found out from Eleanor on the recovery what we were actually doing I was so happy, it's a much easier workout :) I was supposed to hit 5:20 pace for all of it (average pace from what we hit Saturday), so 3:26 for the 1000, 2:40 for the 800, 80s for the 400s, then the 200s we just opened up the stride. I hit right on for the 1000, 3:26, the 800 I slipped and hit 2:48, 400s were both 78, and the 200s were 33-36. The pace felt so much easier than on Saturday, it was weird. I just wish my 800 wasn't so slow. Cooled down 7 laps and I'm calling it 9.

Today was just a recovery run. We went up to foothill and did the VA loop to the cemetery and did 5 hills, then a lap, 5 more hills, another lap, then finished the lap and went backwards VA loop to the school. I was tired, my calves and quads are pretty sore still. I did my core. My knees kind of hurt so I think it's time to switch shoes.

Today we just went for a run. We went up to 15th then over to Sugarhouse, 2 road laps and back to the school via 13th. On the way back Dakota told me to stick with him and so I tried, I was able to for longer than I thought I'd be able to, he had a good point when he said to think positively, that's what I've been lacking lately. It picked up my pace a lot which was good, thanks! Added on at the school to get to 8. Or close to it I think.

Down to Liberty and went the long way to the drinking fountain, then did 2 laps of fireman on the sidewalk. Then did a grass lap and up to the school for 8. My legs felt stiff and heavy.

Today was the race. I warmed up 3 laps then ran a ton and did a ton of strides at the line because the timer wasn't there yet. I'm calling it 1.5.

In the race, I started pretty good but I thought I was going too slow because I was in the back. It was a 75 first 400 which surprised me. I relaxed too much because I thought I was fine. At the 800 I was 2:36, with 400 left I was 4:01. Then finished at 5:26, I started to kick but gave up at the 300. I felt like I just relaxed and ran it, I wasn't hurting or breathing too hard, and I wasn't as focused. In fact I worried about the ACT tomorrow instead of paying attention to the runners in front of me. If I could do it over I would have focused and made myself hurt.

2.5 cool down

We didn't realize how far ahead they had gotten from when we thought the 4x800s would start, so I was full of food and no warmup for me. Maybe .25. I was first and my hip started to hurt, it hasn't hurt for a while so that was really weird. I was probably really slow first lap because of it, I couldn't run right. It finally warmed up in the second lap but by then it was already over. Freak. Sorry guys! Apparently my leg was slightly longer, so my time must've been around 2:38? I don't really know. I just know I did bad. 

We did 2 miles cool down.

Today I had the ACT in the morning, so I missed the 10k. Instead I went back to the oval for the UHSTCA meet. We did I think around 1.25 warmup. Then we did drills and strides and stuff. 

Ran the 2 mile, I was already pretty drained of energy from the test. It seemed like 85s wouldn't really be that fast, I felt like I could run 85s easily, so 11:20 was my goal, just based off of how yesterday felt. What I didn't take into account was how tired I was. I ran an 80 first 400 then slowed down too much to a 90, then I think an 87, and then back up and my splits were just kind of all over the place. I could've pushed myself harder and I wish I would have. I did 2 miles cool down with everyone else. I was going to run again when I got home, but then I had to babysit my sisters and by the time I was finished it was dark. :(
