Drove to SUU and went on a run with Angie and Ashley H. They called it canyon run! It was tough, I didn't feel particularly good but managed. I actually think I slowed them down, but it was 7:13 average for 6 miles.

AM:

6 miles with Angie, Ashley T, Casey, and Jaden. It was more enjoyable at 7:54 average. Knee hurt a bit the first 2 miles, I think it's IT band issues.

PM:

4 miles, ran with Angie, Jaden, Ashley H and Hayden. I turned at 2 because my knee was giving me problems, I was beginning to change my stride in effort to keep it from giving me pain. I figured it wasn't worth going an extra 2 miles, better safe than sorry. I didn't have a foam roller, but now that I'm home it'll become my best friend.

Wasatch loop, 7:44 average. Feeling almost back to normal, maybe it's just that I have my motivation back :) Talked to Coach Houle for a minute yesterday (I kind of snuck out of a little bit of orientation...shhhhh) and it made me excited for the season! It's weird to think that I'll be moving in a month from yesterday. But it will be great!

Ran with Easts team today, ran to the zoo trail where I met up with them and we went up the trail to Red Butte and then the black fence (farthest one), I stopped at the bathroom once we got to the road and then continued to the fence, then when I turned I saw Natalie so I waited and we stretched for a bit before heading back. When we finally got to go down all the hills (which I usually struggle on a lot coming up, but today it wasn't until the big one that I had a hard time, which is good cause it means I'm in better shape than I thought!) I guess I forgot to breathe because I got a huge side ache, then on the last downhill was so intense that I actually couldn't breathe so that's cool. Then we had a core session and I ran back home to get to 12.

Warmed up 2 miles with everyone, didnt feel so great but tried to get myself in race mode. Never really happened but oh well, I didn't really expect to. I guess we were running behind, I should've checked what time it was cause after I put on my flats I ran to the bathroom (race day habit!) and as I exited I heard the siren signaling the start of the race. I panicked and booked it to the start but I was too late, obviously. So I slowed into my pace, it honestly felt like 7:00 pace because I had to weave through the slower runners and walkers. After about a quarter mile of this I got sick of it and finally put on my thinking cap and ran on the dirt beside the road where not quite as many people were. I didn't have a clear path until the first turn almost a mile into it. Then there was enough space in between people to have a pretty straight path. Worked my way up, it was fun to have a couple people fight me. I like their competitive spirits :) When we got to the random little trail that lasted for like 15 feet I got trapped behind a couple going pretty slow so that was annoying. When we turned onto the road heading towards the trail it was kinda windy, I remember some guy telling a girl to draft off of him so that it'll be easier. Unfortunately since I was still passing people I couldn't draft. But it was kind of fun to continually pass people. When we got to the trail I thought oh sweet I'm almost done but it was a lot longer than expected. I began to pick it up halfway between the sharp turn and where we got on the trail, then got to the sharp turn and began to kick (surprised myself there) but it was a lot further than I expected so just tried to hold a long kick. Splits were 6:09, 12:07 (5:58), 18:31 (6:24), 19:08 (36). Kind of bummed that I didn't start on time cause then I could've worked up to Angie and Natalie, maybe even Diwas. But I got the workout in and I pushed myself so that's all that matters. Cooled down to 9.
