just for the run of it

painful run and painful arm wo

calves still hurt but getting there. good run with the girls then abs and hips. 

just haven't really been feeling good at all. weights and abs and hips.

did 3 miles and then 5x150m strides with equal recovery then finished my mileage by myself. abs and hips.

3.5 with mario and brynlee than the rest by myself. the last part felt really good and i'm excited to race tomorrow. did some upper body stuff and abs. 

mile wu then race. started out too fast and died... weird racing such a short distance again. glad i raced though to gain some more confidence for track. did a sick cool down by the mtc and provo temple. 

ran a loop with the kicker and jail trail which was pretty fun. felt pretty good. abs&hips 

mile wu then 3 sets of 3x300m @goal "indoor" mile pace. ended up hitting 58&59s consistently which was about 5:08-5:15ish pace so that wonderful. learned though that cafe rio isn't exactly a good workout fueling food. 2 mile cd and abs&hips.

some good recovery with bryn. abs&hips 

run didn't feel too long and had an epic snow (well slushy) war with watson at the end lol. did some lower body weights, abs&hips 

8x1 min pick ups at 2 mile pace. felt good, some of them i probably could've gone a little faster, but still some dope speed. going across the gulley with the pick ups killed my legs. good cd with watson even tho my legs wanted to die after we went through the gulley again haha. medium mileage is starting to feel better, hopefully i get more used to it by the time im running 9 lol. abs&hips 

abs&hips then met at lehi high school did the luscious pony loop which included good ole country road (: finished will a lil bit of turf running. felt tired at first but actually realized that nothing has really hurt in awhile #blessed

after a rough night of sleep (more like two 2 hour naps), running was kinda rough and my calves felt like bricks until i stopped to stretch. other than that had some tasty hot chocolate from kneaders and always enjoy running with the girls 💗

low mileage+arm wo+abs+hips

did mile warm up then wo was 5x800 at 2mile pace. calves felt tight on the wu but they're usually fine so i didn't think much of it but 3rd set in was rough. stood out 4th and did the last one but the last 200 it was like my calves hit a wall. i biked for a cool down. shoutout to collin cause he worked on my calves pretty good, they're stubborn little guys.... hopefully theyll be fine before the weekend, just frustrated cause i've never not finised a speed workout. 

kinda frustrated cause i had to go ultra slow cause going fast hurttt. ended up just doing 5 and biking for 20 min. hopefully calves are gonna do better tomorrow. 

did 3 mile wu and wanted to stop and stretch like a billion times but i hate doing that to the girls so i just grinded through. i think my calves are just not recovering right so jamie told me bike the rest. did speed on bikes which was 2x60-90-30 sec pickups with minimal rest and then longer rest between sets (don't really care to put all the numbers). it was killer and i really pushed myself. finished biking to 45 min, then some lower body lifting minus calf raises cause that would be a problem lol. did abs and stuff and yeah, just gonna cross train tomorrow. 

today i tell a sad tell of gannicus:

her calves hurt dearly so she knew she shouldn't run. she wanted to go aqua jogging, it seemed it could be fun. she called her local gym, they said there would be room to swim. she got up early to get a lane, but the drive over was extremely insane. her car spun out with a 180, luckily the cars she evaded. finally she arrived but all was not right, there was not a parking space in sight. she tried here and over there, but there was too much snow for her tiny car to bear. with a spot of luck, she found a space, then went inside to find there was a swimming race. somehow prepared she had workout attire, however she didn't want to bike, she was tired (of it). reluctantly she got on with her inadequate shoes, the first 10 min she didn't want to move. however the time seemed to pass fast, it was finally 60 min at last. she was good girl and did her abs, then drove home although she wished she had a cab. from this story we learn that running is life, it literally causes so much less strife.

run was ok until it kinda hurt then turned around. got back and biked 37 min, then cried my way through a rollout. talked to jamie and something's just not right, gonna take the week off and cross train and not racing this weekend. rip to my sanity.

bike wo was 15 min warm up then 10x1min pickups @mile effort with 90 sec rest. hard wo but i pushed myself. finished to 75 min then abs&hips. 

biked 75 min with 6 sets of 2min sit 1min hover 2min standup then 2min rest. more recovery than anything but nice to break up the time. did an upper body arm wo and abs and hips. 

so biked outside today cause the weather was splendacious and it helped brighten the mood a lil. wo was 8x3min rolling hills with the 2min downhill. cd for 60 min. jamie said i can probs start running again on monday so fingers crossed. shoutout to everyone racing tomorrow, ill cheer ya on. 

so worked out earlier today so i could go watch the meet tonight. did 50min biking with 3x10min downhills, starting with really high resistance. afterwards did an arm wo and abs&hips. shoutout to my ma for coming with me. 

did abs then went aqua jogging with hannah for 30 min. got on bikes for speed did 6x90sec pick ups with equal rest. good workout and cooled down for 40 min. 70 min saturday at its finest. 

so pretty much really great cause i got to run a mile today! hurt a little towards the end but definitely nothing as crazy as before. sad reality when i hopped back on the bike for 60min. did wu then 5x5min downhill then cd. abs&hips. 

wow so another painless mile and it felt wonderful so wow. did speed on the bikes which was 5x1min on 2min off 2min on 3min off then 1min on 2min off. long hard but rewarding workout. biked 65 min total. shoutout to bryn and james for getting me through that workout lol #bikepals

yay so upped to 1.5 and my calves tightened but no pain so still a good sign i think. got back and biked 55min with 4x5min hill climb and 3min rest. also did mixed body weights abs&hips. also was a baller and shot mikes water bottle into the trash can across the fitness center lol

1.5 breezy miles and no pain, so ill up to 2 tomorrow. also jamie said i get to do a tiny bit of the speed on the track tomorrow! after running did 65min biking with 4 sets of 5min 70% 1 min 90% and then 5min rest. did abs&hips then some stretchy stuff. 

abs&hips in the morning. did 10 min bike warm-up then bike speed wo was 3x3:30 4x2:15 2x1:00 all with 90 sec rest. in the middle did 2x400s on the track with my group @"2mile" pace lol hit 80,82. went back finished the wo on bike, cooled down for 55min total then went for a mile more. my calves started hurting a lot so i think tomorrow i'm just gonna cross train. not really sure if i'm gonna race next friday or not after today cause i wanna make sure i'm racing at simplot but i guess we will see how things go. 

so sad but no run today. just biked 85 min recoveryish and abs&hips.

ran 2 and felt good. did 30min biking with some medium/"sprint" minutes thrown in. lifter lower body and then abs&hips. feeling good today and if doing speed tomorrow goes well then i'm racing the 800 on friday.

today was simply amazing. did mile wu then 2x400-200 with 45 sec rest between reps and 3min rest between sets. hit 82, 37, 78, 37. really nice cause i was scared i wouldn't be able to keep up with the girls but ya know it was really a confidence booster and helped me realize i am putting in the work but in a different way and i'm ready to come back so so strong. hopped on the bikes to finish the wo which was 4x90sec @mile effort 45 sec rest then 45 sec back on with 3min rest between sets. i was able to really push myself and i really think i'm pushing down a barrier that's been here the last few weeks dragging me down. cooled down for 30min and did abs&hips and an ice bath. 

was planning on 2.5 but ended up walking the last .25 cause my calves were having a lot of pain, it was a rough go today. still trying to keep positive tho. biked 47 min with 20min at a medium highish effort. did some stretching and abs&hips.

running hurt. biked 50min w/ some hill climbs. not racing tomorrow. 

did speed on the bikes. wu then 10x1min pickups with 1min rest. pretty much thrashed my legs on every rep cause i wanted to take this workout with race effort. feel satisfied with my work and cd for 60min. ran 2.5 with watson guppy and some lp girls and felt amazing so YAY

morning with bryn. biked 45min with 4x3min rolling hills. then ran 2.5, hurt at first but got relatively better as i went on. sweethearts tonight is gonna be so lit 🔥🔥

did .5 wu then 3x400s at mile pace but i was kinda excited and felt really good and hit 78. 75, 76. cd for 2.5. hopped on bikes and did 1 set of 8x20sec hard and 10sec rest which was so killer cause the rest was spent changing resistance. finished up biking for 25min and then did abs&hips. shoutout to zack cause i saw him at the developmental center yesterday and shoutout to mike for making sweethearts legendary. 

what a stellar day, ran more than i biked (: we ran down love lane in honor of valentine's day and i finished up to 3 with bryn. got back and biked 22min with a 15min endurance ride with my heart rate around 140ish. did abs&hips and good stuff. 

mile wu then 2x400s for premeet. hit 78, 80. feeling alrightish. cd for 3 then biked 20min. threw in a 10min hill climb. we will see how racing goes tomorrow. 

woah what a day. got to simplot at like 2pm lol and chilled and did hw and card games until i started watching races and wow so much crazy stuff, it got me pumped. HUGE shoutout to parker and mike for qualifying for finals. went on a wu with guppy kaylee and bryn and we talked about cemeteries and dead people which wow, what a way to prep for a race. was feeling very nervous in the bullpen, did some strides and tried to calm myself even tho two legends were in my heat, brie oakley and guppy struthers. planned to actually just stick at the back of the pack and see how that felt. gun went off and lol thought i had bad position cause i wasn't in the very back but i just thought, oh well, we can see how this goes. just stuck beside some girls for the first 600, then decided to pull up, because believe or not, i use this tactic in bike workouts to make sure i don't kill myself too fast but slowly build up. came in 800 @ 2:42 and thought hey let's keep this going. my team was cheering pretty loudly so i started moving up about 500 to go. last 400 built a pretty strong kick and barely outkicked a girl at the end cause i wasnt gonna lose a finals spot to one person smh. so didn't even know my time or anything but man did i love racing again, even tho i proceeded to collapse and felt like throwing up cause i haven't done speed like that in awhile. but then i found out i got a pr! and finals! and my good pal guppy is going too (: got on a cd and was fine til the last little bit and my calves ached very much but hopefully they know they need to get better cause they gotta race again. man if you're still reading this shoutout to you cause i'm writing this at 2am so idk if it even sounds sane.

some easy recovery miles then 3x100m strides to get the legs moving. got back and biked 20min but didn't do the wo cause my legs were pretty tired and i want to keep them fresh for tomorrow. did abs&hips and ice bath.

wu then did strides, legs felt pretty tired. i felt the first lap was too slow but didn't do much to change my pace. felt like i raced basically the same as thursday but my legs were a lot more tired and i didn't have the same kick. still had fun tho, and even tho i'm not super happy about the time, i gave a good effort and im still getting back into training so i can't be too disappointed. as you can see my cd was a lot longer than it should've been but i really needed to just run some more and i was with mario who had 2.5 left so i ran it all. my legs kinda hurt after but assuming they're ok, i might try 4 (consecutive) on monday (:

aww man s/o to sami for coming today it was such a party and i loved it so much. biked before for 30min with 2x6min medium effort with 30sec sprint. on the down side of things, the last mile hurt to the point i considered walking so i think these next few days will be 3, but i mean slowly but surely i'll get back. 

did 3 w/ 5x100m strides. felt mostly better today. also biked a pretty lonely 40min with 6x90sec easy, 2min medium, 90sec rest. james and tommy were there for the first part tho and they are some pretty hilarious kids so that was a win. 

first full speed workout on the track!! did mile wu then 2x200-400-200 with 60sec between reps and 5min between sets plus some lunges. hit 36, 80, 33, 36, 76, 35. felt pretty solid except pain on the cd. however considering speed felt good i'm not too worried cause that was the ultimate problem in the first place. biked for 40min which actually went way fast today and felt really good. solid day, 11/10 would reccomend 

massage therapist guy said i have a pretty tight soleous on my right calf and left calf has a lot of microtears which really isn't anything more than information but kinda nice to more know about it. run today was manageable and towards the end felt really good. biked 60min with 40min at a decent resistance and kept my heart rate between 130-145ish. did abs&hips and upper body arm wo. s/o to thom and riley for getting their mission calls today!!

mile wu then 2miles @easy run pace, 7:36 then 7:34 then half mile cd. felt pretty good. got on bikes and did 55min with 2 sets of 5min medium 2min sprint 4min medium 1min sprint 5min medium 3min sprint. pushed it pretty hard. abs&hips and collin gave me a rollout.

did abs&hips then 3.5 with bryn and it was completely pain free (: just did a nice little loop. biked 40min with bryn and did 5 rolling hills (3 up 2 down). then did some aqua jogging with 5 sets of 5min on 1min rest for a total of 25min. kinda long but good workout.

biked 30min distance riding then abs&hips. warmed up .5 then 4x400s @goal outdoor mile pace. didn't even use my watch but was doing super well pacing. hit 78 79 78 79. the real bummer of the day was i was supposed to do the whole workout but the 4th rep my calves seized up and i gave everything to finish it. jamie sent me inside to finish on the bikes so did 3x60sec pick ups with 3min rest and finished for 20min. don't really know what's going on and why or how or what or anything

bikes today. did 70min with 10x3min uphill climbs, 1min rest. s/o to jhoan for the quote of the day, "if you don't like gan and watson, you aren't human"

abs then biked 15min then did a mile then a circuit wo which was 2miles. calves weren't too bad cause everything was broken up which was good. came back and did 25 more min biking and hips. pretty ok day.

feeling a lot better about things today. ran 3 pretty easy and no pain. biked 20min with 10min endurance with heart rate around 140 until the end it was 180. did abs&hips

biked 5min as part of a wu then did a mile wu. 2miles at easy pace, 7:22 7:05. hopped back on bikes did 10min hill climb, 3min rest, 5min ride with heart rate at about 140. then cd for total of 25min biking today. abs&hips. tried rolling out but not gonna happen quite yet

abs&hips then biked 20min with 3x3min hill climbs with 1min rest. then ran in highland with guppy and dallin. was doing good til the end, my right calf and a little bit of my shin started aching. 

physical therapy today. biked 10min and ran .25 for some analysis stuff. did astym which meant no running today. @practice did 10min bike wu then 5x90sec pickups with 4min rest, super hard effort given and my legs and lungs and stomach felt dead which was good. cooled down for a total of 60min biking today. abs&hips and shoutout to watson and mario for finally being back cause i missed them so so much!!

ran 2, calves definitely felt sore, but not painful. got back and did abs&hips then biked 30min with 20min endurance ride (heart rate at about 150 for it today). then took a VERY cold ice bath.

mile wu then watched people kill it in the 1600. got to the line for the 800 and there was like 6 girls but only watson and i to race together. just stuck with each other til like the last 200 then i surged a lil bit ahead and prayed i wouldnt get passed lol. ended up close to my pr so that was a win. raced the 4x400 like 20min after that and kobe killed it and got us the lead and i held it for my leg but we ended finishing second, got somewhere around a 66 tho which was a win. then did a 4x100 which was kinda a joke haha but nonetheless fun. cd for mileage then did 20min on the bike and abs&hips.

some solid recovery and its the most i've ran in awhile (: biked 10min and abs and hips and ice bath.

some astym and sore.... but whistle bikes today lol did 4 sets of 20-30-40sec very hard with double rest inbetween. wasn't planning on the last set but austin was doing another and it's awesome week so joined the grind. finished for 60min of biking. abs&hips and ice bath

did .25 wu then wo was 20x400s, first 5 at 5k pace, next 5 at 2mile pace, 5 at mile pace then the last 5 are faster. i made it 11 until i hopped on the bikes cause i was feeling a sharp pain, i think from the astym. finished on bikes and just was on/off when my group was. finished for 40min, then did another .4 some on grass to see if it was just the speed aggravating it, but it still hurt.

wahoo finally some decent miles today! went up towards im flash and it was such a nice day. felt pretty good, just sore and tightish from speed probably. did 10min on elliptical then abs and hips and hurdle stretch.

update: went to physical therapy and biked 10min and did astym and electo thing (forgot what it's called) but probably gonna sit on the couch the rest of the day cause i can already feel it bruising.

biked 50min with 5x5min medium 1min hard. did abs and hips and hurdle stretch and yeah. solid day. shoutout to parker cause it's his birthday 

premeet today. did 2.5 wu then two 200s in 36 and 36. cooled down then biked 10min. did abs, hips, stretching, and an ice bath. 1week til national roast watson day

am-30min biking with 3x2min sit 1min hover 2min running. also did stretching and abs and hips.

pm-mile wu then got to start line, weird positioning. gun went off and somehow ended in the back which is a no no at a dual meet. made my way on the curve up to behind some cc girls but they were going too slow so had to pass them too. luckily kaylee and bryn got through the struggle with me and then we just raced. kaylee pulled up with like 200 to go and i didn't follow her quite like i should've. still ends ok tho and not too disappointed especially considering the rough start.. got a few recovery laps in then did the 4x400. i was the anchor and our team got first!! split a 66 which i felt pretty good about. cooled down and yeah solid day.

grass mile then loop. biking and abs and hips and stretching and strengthening exercises. also got it so us girls can wear black spandex, s/o to collin for rolling me out 

biked and stuff in the morning, 30min with 4x3min rolling hills. ran in afternoon with mario watson and guppy. felt really good and hopefully by the end of next week i'll be back to full miles!!

astym but my pt said i would be ok for speed. biked 25min before practice. did mile wu then workout was 2x400s 3x200s 4x100s all at goal 800 pace. hit 73 72 35 35 34 15 15 16 16. really felt like i was dying at the end but so happy i was able to do a whole speed workout!! afterwards my right soleous wasn't quite too happy with me, even on the bikes but icing rn so hopefully it'll be ok. biked for a total of 65min. did abs&hips 

started running and my right soleous started flaring up and it felt like some sharper pains toward my shin so i came back and biked 85min with 10xrolling hills (3min up 2 down) and then abs and hips

did abs&hips. .5 then hurt so went and biked 75min with 30min endurance ride in that time. then tried another mile with watson pain was kinda numbed but not too bad. it national roast watson day (check my blog post a year ago) so shoutout to her!

oh gosh it was so cold today but hey taking the last few days as crosstrain made a huge difference in how i felt today which was AMAZING. premeet in 80 and 79. wind made it rough but powered through. no pain whatsoever which makes for like the best bday gift ever so yeah. shoutout to the hinckley's cause they got their mission calls!!!

can't even count today as a race. did wu then got out. first lap was fine but 600 in i felt my right calf start to tighten. i was on pace first 800 but i gave so much to hold on but finishing was a struggle. sat down after and iced and shoutout to zack cause i talked to him and it kinda calmed me down and also he killed it in the 3200. gonna try to figure this out i guess. watched everyone else and also talked to the one and only ryan raff, even gave him a pretty stellar quote. quite the day

what an adventure today lol. biked 45min through the rain with mario until my bike got a flat then watson came and picked me up. went to the clubhouse and did 30 more min to make up for yesterday's lack of miles. threw in a 10min hill climb in the middle but mostly recovery. thought of something semi profound today. im biking cause i love running. sometimes we do things we don't want for the things we love. take it as you will, it's kinda giving me more positive vibes and just so hoping i'm racing next week, without problems even if it means more time on the bikes and less miles.

70min biking with 30min endurance ride. abs 

did 2mile wu then workout was 9 reps, goal 800 pace for 300m (54s) then added 2sec cause of wind (56s) and you went as many 300s staying on pace with 2sec buffer (56-58) jamies plan for me was just 5 reps to be careful to avoid last weeks problem. hit 56 57 58, a little tightness on the third one so dropped to 200s for the last two reps, 38 37. 5 reps got me pretty bad but went in and finished on the bikes and did 5x60sec on very hard and 60sec rest. was only supposed to do 4 but did an extra cause i was kinda mad at myself for not doing a 300 the 4th rep cause i know i'm being careful but i don't think one more would've killed me (although who knows, last week i did just that) so yeah a little mentally messed up but still gave much effort on the bikes and cooled down for a total of 40min biking. 

4 painfree miles by im flash with mario and the crew made for a great day! abs&hips and ice bath and stretches and 30min biking with 20min endurance ride, heart rate 130-140

man another really good day, i just love the gals. also no pain. did 30min biking with 20min endurance ride. abs&hips and ice bath 

wasn't feeling the absolute greatest but can't complain since i've been doing better. did 3mile loop then premeet. 36 34. getting pretty pumped for tomorrow. biked 25min with 15min endurance ride then abs&hips and ice bath. shoutout to parker for not running 2miles today 

bummer cause meet took so long so missed both sessions of general conference :/ but on the other hand got to watch some sick races. warmed up a mile but meet took so long warmed up .25 like an hour later. did like 5 strides then finally got to line and was pretty worried i'd have to lead mostly cause i was fastest seed in the heat but another girl took it out hard so i stuck behind her. at 200 in jamie said that pacing was good so i didn't need to pass her, kept with her til 200 left she gained a little but i sped up at the end and got close to catching but got a pr! thankful for that girl. huge shoutout to mario and kobe for qualifying for state in the 800 holy cow they're my heroes! cd 2miles with mario which was awesome cause i cooled down with a future state champ. got back and listened to conference while biking 30min.

abs&hips then 23min biking. ran 4 with gups and felt pretty decent except it was a little hard to breathe cause i'm sick :/ pretty weather tho and so glad it's spring break 

10min biking then a mile, drove down to lehi for the workout cause our track is off limits this week. workout was 3x400-200 @mile pace with 2min rest after the 4 and 3min rest between sets. hit 78 37 79 40 77 37. it shouldn't have been rough but being sick really made breathing hard and yeah. cd with the guys for 4. did abs&hips. started walking around tho and feeling a bit of sharp pain between my soleus and shins so i'm starting to question whether racing this weekend is a good idea.

in cali and went to this park place. first mile hurt my calves a lot and i regretted doing all the speed yesterday again. legs slowly warmed up into tho and the last mile i felt ok. good thing is breathing was fine. quite hot out tho. did abs&hips then 10min on the elliptical. 

10min elliptical then abs&hips. headed over to south pasadena high school to do premeet. mile wu then two 400s in 75 and 82. very inconsistent and neither on pace but i tried i suppose. cd my soleus just wasn't right but i'm hoping tomorrow it'll hold together even if it just makes it through the race. met the meet director, he's a cool dude and knew who i was when i said i was from skyridge. 

mile wu then got to the line. stuck towards the back yet the first lap was still a 74 smh. did a surge as planned and had a strongish kick so stuck to my goals however laps were a bit slower than i would've liked. being sick didn't help but my calves didn't hurt which is such a big step! went to arcadia and watched so many sick races and shoutout to dallin and zack for killin it!! cooled down with guppy and collin and towards the end my calves were pretty done with me but they lasted which was good. ok day and i'm getting excited for these next few invites.

didn't wanna push my luck today so took a semi cross train day. did 30min on elliptical and kept my heart rate between 140-160. ran two with dal and my right soleus was flared a little so it was good i kept it minimal. did abs&hips 

what a fantastic day! wu to the gulley then 6x60sec up the hill. fought hard and stayed mentally in it the whole time, and averaged 5:45 mile pace which was exciting. . afterwards i felt like death but was so happy at the same time! cd to 5 (finally! #almostthere) then biked 20min, very slowly due to dead legs. did abs&hips then ice bath

did 5mile loop with some hills which was mostly good, calves hit a lil on the up but were fine soon enough. also guppy found a snake on the trail which scared me very badly and it wasn't the smallest one i've ever seen... got back and biked 20min then did abs&hips and an ice bath with my good pal mario

did premeet today and hit 76 79. idk why but struggling pacing those, i wanted 80-81 smh. oh well finished miles and idk what's made the difference these last few weeks but i had forgotten what running without pain had felt like but now it makes me so grateful when i feel normal and it's good to know it gets better, even if it has taken 3 months and i'm still not back to full miles. so a very wonderful realization. finished 20min biking then abs&hips and ice bath. 

mile wu then race, started more conserved hit 81 then made a couple moves second lap, 84 third lap did a huge surge to catch lead girl 85, crossed the line knowing i would have to hit 80 to be where i wanted which was totally possible, i hits 80s so much but something bad happened to me mentally that lap and hit a 90 which is TERRIBLE. but all things considered all i need to fix is that last lap and we are in good shape and hit my goal of a strong third lap cause i didn't drop off that lap like normal. so yeah really crummy time but still looking on the up side and i'll thrash the 800 tomorrow (well 4x800 i suppose). cooled down 3miles (yay for still being at 5 and not hurt). came home biked 40min with 30min endurance ride then abs and did some harder ab things today cause i know that fourth lap is gonna come if i put in the extra work but not if i just do the minimum. so good things WILL come and im ready!!! and yeah hips. shoutout to everyone who is reading this overly long blog post about me giving myself motivation. you guys are true pals

morning biked 40min plus abs and hips. later ran 3miles. then did mile wu with watson for 4x800. i was the third leg. got baton when we were in 3rd and us top 3 girls kinda held a pack first lap then mountain view girl surged ahead went with her as much as i could but last 100 was very hard but mentally i gave it a lot and i gave mario the baton in second. split a 2:28 which i was pretty happy about. we finished 2nd with 9:59 which was awesome cause our team goal was under 10:00. shoutout to our team for killin it. cd .5 to finish for the day. 

am-40min biking with abs and hips 

pm-good ol recovery with watson and mario. halfway through the run my calves started hurting pretty bad but took a couple min to stretch and that seemed to do the trick cause they felt pretty great after that. 

welp. on the wu my soles was kinda bothersome but i knew it could push through a workout. workout was 3 sets of 4x400 at current mile pace then about two seconds faster each rep. i hit 81 80 82 81 82 and the fifth one i wasn't focusing on pacing anymore than judging whether i should be doing the workout or not, so talked to jamie on rest and made the decision not to push it. i wanted to keep going but i know it wouldn't help. went and did two sets on the bike of 1min on and 2min off 4 times with 4min rest in between. push myself very hard and had to lay on the grass after so i didn't throw up on the bike. finished to 45min of biking. i feel like there is so much i wanna give in speed but then it keeps coming down to being careful which i hate. i just wanna do full speed and not feel like i'm gonna hurt myself in the process. 

bummer cause i did 2miles and my soleus wasn't doing any better. tomorrow  will be a cross train day. biked 50min with 30min endurance ride and heart rate was about 150. abs&hips 

cross trainnnn. did 7x3min rolling hills (3 up 2 down) and those seemed so hard which i guess mean speed did its job. 70min total. also idk why but i'm struggling a little having the trust and confidence for a good race this weekend, any advice would be much appreciated💗

mile wu then premeet, 80 78. better on pace but i was a bit more tired than i would've liked. soleus is a little bit better, just cooled down a mile tho. biked 20min and abs&hips and ice bath 

welllllll at least im in the 5:30s lol. race seemed fine but i know middle laps could've had more grind. last lap i mentally was kicking it in and my legs would not move for the life of me. but i did have a fight which was good. i had to lay on the grass for awhile cause my legs hurt and my stomach and my head. after awhile got up but didn't feel too good. iced my leg while taking a little nap and woke up feeling better. i figured out my problem was is that the last time i had eaten was 11:30ish and i raced at 5. so basically i feeling really dumb for throwing away my race by a small mistake. cooled down with dalpal 3miles. later watson had some miles and the temptation was too strong and i went over but hey it's been so long since i've been this far and i probably won't be able to do it for awhile. so some things learned today, we will give it another go next week.

nice and early with watson. legs felt very fatigued today but no pain, which is a good sign.

biked 10min and did abs and hips before practice. did mile wu then jamie said i could do 6 of the 12 reps. hit 5x300s and barely didn't make the time so did a 200 for my last one. felt good and stay mentally positive. went to the bikes for the other 6 and it was medium hard resistance and you sped up for 60sec then 90sec rest. the rest was hard cause you didn't want to move and the resistance was so high. pushed my self good and visualed the track and i feel good about the work i did. finished for a total of 50min biking then did a mile cd running and my legs felt very tired which meant some good things happened today. 

out and back up suncest, legs definitely tired from yesterday. did 40min biking with 30min endurance ride. abs&hips and ice bath

planned a cross train day in this week to keep things looking good. did 45min endurance ride and 90min total biking. felt like recovery but still some good work. abs&hips and ice bath

premeet! worked on surges during it and it was in the wind lol 78 79. legs felt kinda tired but on the cool down they warmed up and felt super great! gonna throw down tomorrow(:(:

am-10min biking and abs&hips 

pm-interesting race. definitely went out too slow but actually passed lots second and third lap which was good. still need to work on my kick tho. time is getting better but honestly that race didn't feel super hard which means i definitely needed to race faster. oh well. can't be too sad that it's going better and i know i can race faster! cool down consisted of splashing mud in mouths, burger king, and crazy girls so that was a win (; super solid time at the meet

got up early did abs and hips then biked 40min with 3x2min medium 1min hover and 2min running(on bike) and then did a set of pick ups towards the end. ran 5 with watson and mario on old country road, definitely legs felt way too recovered for having raced yesterday.

wow today was such a fun run. after missing practice cause of the ap psych test, riley teapot thom watson and did the double dip loop. there was some pretty funny conversation. pace was a little faster than recovery cause we were with the guys but it was worth the good time. biked 10min after easy for a cd then abs&hips 

speed today. did abs and hips before then mile wu. wo was 4x400, 100m jog, 200 on pace/kick. just kept 400 splits which were 78 79 76 81, last one hit a wall kinda. on the last 100 jog just dropped back from the girls and did the 200 by myself cause i wanted to throw down what i had without worrying about others and such and it was worth it because i really focused on finishing which was good, cause that's been my problem. overall, hit faster than pace on everything and i'm happy with my work, just gotta make sure i'm more mentally ready for the meet than i was for this workout because i definitely wasn't mentally prepped like i normally am, and it made it harder than it should've. cd was tough i was so dead and just wanted to lay in the grass. 10min of biking after 

recovery today. felt good until middle endish and my calves were tightening. stretched good with bryn while the other girls went ahead and finished up more relaxed and feeling better which was a win. did abs and hips and ice bath

abs&hips and took a cross train day. 50min biking with 30min endurance ride as part of it. some good convo with kobe and watson. time went pretty fast today. feeling pretty ready for this weekend but also nervous.

little bit longer wu and my calves just killed. decided i would do premeet and bike the rest to be careful. hit 80 79 which was like perfect and felt controlled. biked for 15min then abs and hips and ice bath

hmm. before wu my stomach started hurting and i kinda just felt nasueated through the wu and strides. race wasn't much better. it effected me mentally lots and i kinda just wanted to give up a lot of the time but i slapped myself into gear and started passing. actually was with the front pack til the last 100. idk what my problem was, i was trying so hard but i wouldn't move and was getting passed. i need to figure that out. afterwards just felt like i was gonna throw up super bad but after awhile headed back to the tent and laid down. felt better like 30min later. not happy with my race but i mean not really too bad either. sad my stomach got me bad. again, i feel way too recovered and kinda raged for one of my cool down miles. oh well i'll throw down at region. 

recovery towards im flash. felt pretty solid today and it didn't feel like running required so much effort as some days. biked 10min. abs&hips 

premeet. found out i'm seeded towards the very top of the second heat so kinda bummed, but some good things can still happen. mile wu then 400s. first one 79 and felt easy. second one i did first 250 on pace, then last 150 with a kick, to work on form/speed. came in at a 74. cd for 3 then biked 10min. abs and hips and ice bath.

woke up at like midnight ill stricken and got terrible sleep and my throat killed and i had a slight fever plus chills and lightheaded. as the day went on i got a lil better but opted out of the mile still because i felt tired and weak from the medicine and i think i just need some rest before racing tomorrow. plus a sore throat makes it hard to eat or hydrate. so yeah but watched the mile and shoutout to thom for qualifying for state and to mario for a great pr!

welp felt a decent amount better today. well i should say that my head did, my throat and voice are far gone by now. warmed up a mile and legs felt decent. nothing too special about my race, made some decent moves, actually had somewhat of a kick. just bummed cause a) literally so close to 2:26 it's nagging and b) watson got me right at the line by .05 which means she will get the medley if mario qualifies it for finals and decides not to race it in finals. not mad at watson by any means, she earned that. but just mainly at myself cause it was so close. anyways tho, still a pr and a great way to end the season. cd and at first i literally just wanted to stop but as it went on i felt loads better. 

well started off the day fantastically with finally achieving my goal of a 10min plank! then got to run for the longest i have this whole season! good ole crew and i went up suncrest and my legs felt quick fantastic, my throat not so much. but overall 11/10 day

wow being sick really makes me feel like a potato. running just felt very tiresome but still got through it. went with guppy and watson on one of our old loops from lhs. hopefully i can actually breathe and function better than a potato by monday. 

i'm thinking this sickness might be more than a cold, that or it's just worse than normal cause everyday just feels like i'm being run over by a train. did speed workout which was 2 sets of 3x200. hit between 34-36. cd was ok but also kinda rough. i can't breathe....

lungs felt a lot better today, did 4miles on the trail with mario and watson. soleus starting acting up unfortunately so just biked 10min to finish. did abs and hips 

feeling a lot better today! ran through a blizzard with mario for her miles and then it picked up even more when i did a mile with bryn (: lol recovery has actually been lots faster lately. so yeah things are on the upside. did abs and hips

lol. had the (not so) brilliant idea of doing a mile on the treadmill today seeing if i could hold it fast for awhile. did .5 wu then got set for 5:20 pace. held on for 1000m then stopped it cause i was dying, well i realized i wasn't satisfied with that for speed today so i took 30sec to breathe then finished 600m at 5:10 pace. overall time elapsed was 5:47ish including the break so not really bad for 1600 but i wish i wouldn't have stopped in the middle. oh well haha just needed to end with some sort of speed before break next week. afterwards did 3.5 with watson and also a 150m buildup which my legs were tired for. well interesting day for sure. finished with abs and hips

man oh man i feel like my legs are just so ready for some racing finally after months long of struggling and injury but wait, the season is over. welp. at least i'm healthy again and not sick either. ran a few with thom and mike and then with mario and collin and then with guppy. all relatively easy and chill. fun watching state, everyone is killin it 

lots of miles here and there and everywhere. hit 30miles for the first time since january!! and yeah good stuff. lots of cool races at state

lol started break today... kinda. played kill frisbee basketball football for  4-5ish hours and logged more steps than i do on a normal day, but man i'm pretty beat. was a really fun time tho

skating for 2hours at senior skate night. beat mike in a race

hiked horsetail falls and got completely soaked, from the twins water bottles 

wore heels for graduation which was the ultimate calf workout 

danced hard at grad night and also walked the whole day at lagoon. living off of an hour of sleep is quite adventurous 

went to lava tubes and swam

hiked angels landing and ran a mile of the downhill 

did a swim wo, alternating between different strokes and some aqua jogging for 20min

swam again but for 30min, working on my strokes again, did better today 

heyyy first day back and not too bad. ran with watson and carolyn

dang, i got a feeling i'm gonna be doing a lot of running by myself this next month cause everyone is gone and i work pretty early. 3 by myself on the mct, apparently i wanted to push the pace today cause i slowed myself quite a bit but still averaged 8:00. felt solid and not too tired. things are looking good 

woke up around 6 so just decided to run then. did 3mile loop and it was a great choice cause there were tons of sprinklers and it was pretty hot. ap 7:58

for some reason starting up running after the break hasn't been quite as hard as i thought it would. averaged 8:03 with some nice negative split miles 

played ultimate frisbee and ran 4.5ish miles during that

went to practice today and did mile wu then abs&hips then did the rest with some girls. averaged 8:05.

woah what an adventure today! after getting lost and finally making it to the y trailhead watson and i went on the trail that we ran at camp last year. started out fine, just a few trips but then the trail turned rogue or whatever and we had to find our way through and rock slid down the mountain and eventually made our way back haha it was quite the adventure. afterwards we got bagels at einstein bros bagels which was quite delicious, shoutout to watson for the good time

first mile didn't really end up being a wu.... a car apparently didn't see me running across the road as it was turning and it started speeding towards me but i couldn't really get out of the way so i started screaming then it realized i was there just in time. i ran quickly back to the park with my heart rate going a million miles an hour. then ran up the kicker while everyone raced it, just ran it cause i'm not doing speed or anything but it was nice to do some hills. ran back and did some abs and hips 

nice and rainy today. did 8:09ap with watson and it felt really good. abs&hips and then said goodbye to riley and thom. i'm really gonna miss those guys. 

woke up not feeling super great so today's run was kinda rough, mile wu then 7:35ap for the other 3. wasn't planning on going that fast but guess i was stressed about getting to work. abs&hips 

recommendation of the day: don't let me create loops. i drove to highland glen park for change of scenery and did this loop i thought would be 4 but it was over and it was a lot harder than i thought it would be and 7:50ap did not feel easy like it should (i mainly blame that on me being sick). so yeah kinda rough but at least it's done and it was nice to mix location up

wow it felt soooo nice to take it slow. 8:40ap in old lehi, ran with emily walgreen, she's gonna do awesome things this upcoming season. abs&hips

drove to alpine on collins suggestion and ran towards the trailhead of horsetail falls. it was uphill mostly on the way out so it felt nice on the way back. the weather was actually pretty nice and even tho my legs took awhile to warm up, they eventually fell into rhythm. 8:10ap, abs&hips

woooo 5miles. and got to run with the squad! well for like 2miles. then the team did games and guppy and i took off and finished up and man i've missed that gal, as well as mario. 7:42ap, didn't feel too horrible today

ran through the gully out and back. 8:05ap. the end of runs have felt worse lately but i think it's just partly cause i've been trying to up as much miles as possible while still being smart. 

definitely felt better today cause i chose to take it easy, 8:20ap with kaylee and rachel and it was a good time on country road. 

today i felt so much better, well not at the beginning my left calf hurt til i stretched it but then i felt chill and there was a nice breeze and yeah. also did a grass mile at skyridge. 8:10ap and abs

first leg of top of zion relay. gradual downhill for the most part but intense southern utah afternoon heat and smoky air plus ugly landscape made for a pretty miserable time but i survived. 7:29ap

warmed up .1 cause it's flippin cold at 1am in the morning. another slight gradual downhill but i felt soooo much better for this one and something about running in the dark i love. 6:29ap for 4.4miles and didn't feel like i was pushing too hard

legs felt v tired at the beginning of my run. ran down to practice and did abs then did a mile with mario then ran kicker with the team again, helped grace break 12 and i felt lots better as i went on. recovery but felt good. 8:12ap

i think i need to make easy days more important cause today was really nice. incorporated some hills with mario and some other girls and just took it easy. 8:30ap

just ran kinda around, nothing too exciting. did a grass mile. 8:05ap

the best word to describe today's run is ew. 8:10ap

mile wu then ran to a mile left of the teams tempo run course so i could help pace the last mile with the girls. they came up and i kinda took the lead for a half mile then let bryn go with the guys so i could stay back more to help mario. actually ended up being about 1.2 miles at 6:40ap and it felt good to pick things up and help out the girls. they killed it. cd to finish miles. and then abs. huge shoutout to eva for breaking 18:00 in the 5k!! if you haven't checked out her blog you should cause she is amazing

nice and early with bryn. and it felt so good. took it pretty easy with 8:30ap and seriously today was one of those days i could run for miles. i needed a day like today. 

feeling good again today! went from my house and up suncrest for a bit then turned back. did first five miles at 7:30ap and felt pretty good closing it in 7 flat. did a cd last mile, half of it on the grass. sped up the last .15 tho, i have a new goal of finishing the end of every run hard

happy 4th of july!! today i had an awesome run to celebrate(: today was just easy going pace sorta day so i decided to finally try the jail trail, well somewhat at least. i went up behind im flash and went on the trail that connected there and rode it up til i hit jail trail then cruised down. well that only took me 3.5miles so i decided to do the loop with lots of shade and sprinklers but ran into kiah who was running and did 2miles with her! had good convo then ran the last .5 to my house at 6:40ap finishing strong and feeling so hyped! 8:25ap for the run and then abs 

another fantastic run. got with mario and we did a mile wu towards af. it was easy pace day for her, so the next 4miles were 7:26ap. at first it hurt and didn't really feel like we would be on pace but the way back was downhill and we cruised! went home and did one more mile by myself, finished last .15 hard. 

another fun fun run. 8:05ap. ran double dip loop and it the middle of it saw the park i always wanna grass run at but never have enough miles for, but today i did! there were huge sprinklers all over so i ran through all of them #thirtsythursday lol it was just a blast! finished up hard and man what a good time(: runs by yourself can be a party! 

early birdy at 6:30. sisters wedding today. calves needed a lot of stretching today but other than that, fine run. was gonna go harder today but wasn't really feeling it. 8:10ap

solid run with bryn, 8:25ap. man my legs and stomach hurt lots at the beginning of the run and by that i mean for the first half but then the second half i felt great and going faster didn't hurt! finished last .15 hard and my watch says it was a 5:30 pace so finishing hard is getting faster(: birthday shoutout to my brother dalpal! 

calves took a couple miles to warm up, they killed at the beginning. did 2miles then a grass mile at the cemetery. some more running around in the shade then just did a 15sec sprint with bryn as part of her workout. ran back with rachel then finished last .15 hard at 4:45 pace. 8:20ap for the whole run.

did a couple miles then some grass miles then a couple more, all with the girls. it was recovery for them so pretty slow pace, 8:35ap. i definitely want to go faster tomorrow. finished last .15 hard

today i felt like garbage and my calves hurt and i didn't enjoy downhills like i normally do. rough run. 7:40ap

today was very extremely wonderful cause i felt so good! basically i just wanted to decide the pace with how i felt but i was so relaxed. felt loads better today than yesterday. did a 4.5mile loop with 1.5 on grass. 7:25ap including wu

i was pretty angry on my run til the end which explains the inconsistent paces and a faster pace for what was supposed to be a relaxing run. 7:45ap

easily the worst run i've done in awhile. 2miles in i knew this would be a rough run. did 6 with guppy and watson then a turf mile with watson. by this point i didn't even think i would do more but did abs with watson, then drove to mitchell hollow park for some grass and canal trail running. the last two miles were v slow and i felt dizzy. 8:10ap

despite stopping more than i should've cause of the heat i'm not so used to, this was actually a pretty solid run. didn't feel like i pushed it but pace was decent. ran in springville after my dentist appointment. 7:40ap

nice chill run with nice chill people. felt good to take it easy. finished a grass mile at the end with watson. 8:20ap

am-wu legs were completely dead but then next 5miles@8:00ap and i felt so good, even did a lap at mile pace to help a little bit with bryns workout, i like going fast. 

pm-2@2pm, i wanna start getting transitioned to running in the heat plus i was bored so running solved both. 7:20ap

mile wu then 2 grass miles then 2 on the road. felt really good towards the end. kept it chill, i'm gonna be going harder and longer on saturday. 8:15ap

v early and saw thunderstorms as i was starting. nice and chill until some creepy dude took a picture of me and then i ran faster. 7:58ap

ran 2mile wu then there was a snowflake 10k so just wanted to run it at a slightly faster pace. ended up being about 7:30ap but there was a lot more hills/mud/deep grass than i would've ever thought so that was fun. did 2mile cd

ran to cemetery then grass mile then did an 800 and 400 with girls in 2:55 and 85. cd with girls. felt pretty good today. 7:50ap for everything.

started out recovery pace and ended at a pretty fast pace. felt good and the rain was wonderful. 7:45ap

my legs felt so dead for the wu but then they eased into easy pace so good. i feel like longer runs at a decent pace is coming along good. 7:25ap

plan was to take today pretty easy, and it was but i'll probably make tomorrow pretty slow  just to keep things feeling good. don't wanna push my luck with the miles going good. 7:55ap

ran to lehi high and did some turf miles, shoutout to watson for running on the track while i did those. then looped back a longish way. today felt so chill and nice. 8:10ap

ran with guppy and watson (mario for a lil bit) on the good ole mct. it felt nice outside and actually the majority of the run felt wonderful! the last 1.5 i felt pretty tired but overall it was a solid run and i'm happy to just be running farther and farther. 7:50ap this week has proved to me that i'm in better shape than i thought and that easy days are getting faster. 

felt pretty chill mostly. slow warm up then helped watson with the last half mile of the kicker. then just finished off easy. felt good today. 8:10ap

woke up early and ran in pleasant view with dalpal. it was dark but still warmer than i would've liked. first couple miles were just a lil bit of rolling hills and then decided to make a bad decision and turned left when there was a fork in the road. welp the last .75 gained 400ish ft of elevation and that was just the worst. finally got to turn around and i felt loads better after. finished fast and abs hip and push ups as per usual. 8:00ap

today felt good. did mostly with guppy, a little bit of the teams workout, and some grass running. 7:45ap

mile wu then did an 800 in 2:54. required more effort than i thought but nothing tiring. did 2 miles on the grass then joined some of the team for the rest. felt amazing towards the end so i did the last .5 hard. today was one of those days where everything feels just right

just kept today really easy, it felt good to go slow. did a grass mile towards the end. 8:15ap. here's to hoping my legs don't die tomorrow🤞🏻

solo today. hit up the mct as per usual for the long runs. just let myself chill for most of it,  didn't wanna push the pace really. honestly didn't feel tired until less then a mile left, then i felt like i was dragging. still really solid and surprisingly didn't bore myself too much. 7:40ap

*also 50 miles this week #finally

ran at a trail by jeremy ranch with watson. i can tell my legs were tired but they survived. it was a good time and the weather was nice. 8:20ap. not sure how many miles i'm doing this week yet but i think i want to do my longer runs at the beginning rather than end of the week.

ran to the track and did 5x150m strides with 50m jog inbetween. felt alright. then went and did deer creek trail. felt pretty tired until the last 3miles. ran with carolyn mostly, she's a cool girl. 8:15ap

can't decide whether to say wow or ow lol. super fun and pretty trail run by potato hill. it was such a fun time with the girls and the only bad part was the last part my bum was feeling pretty sore from the last few days and hot pilates 😂. overall felt better today than the last couple tho. v slow pace today at 9:15ap

everything hurts but bryn made it better. solid much needed recovery. 8:20ap

legs were still pretty tired but they warmed up on mile 6. nice recovery with the girls. 8:30ap. did abs (kinda) but no push ups. my arm is still swollen from the shots a few days ago.

good dayyyy(: mile wu then had to do a 1200 in 4:24. watson did the first and last lap with me so shoutout to her for being a pal. first lap came in at like a 90 whoops so picked it up and second lap came in about 2:58 but last lap sped up more and hit 4:24 on the dot. it got me tired but felt good. did 4 more with watson and then did a grass mile to finish things off. 

did 2mile wu then did 11x60sec pickups with the girls. not really supposed to be doing a workout so took it chill and did it about 6:35ap. felt really good. cd with bryn and then myself. 7:53ap for the whole run. 

ran with girls today at a nice easy pace. 8:15ap. some good convo and solid times. at the end of my run did 4x150m strides with guppy and finished with the usual abs and push ups 

 a not so continuous run, but nonetheless one of the last runs with my girls before i leave. gonna miss those dudes. 8:20ap

just started out knowing where i wanted to go but not knowing how far it would take me. made a newish loop through highland and alpine and ended up with 10. felt good and motivated today. 7:49ap

did a 1.5 mile wu then i needed to do a mile in 5:50. got watson and mario to help pace (they're champs) and felt good mostly until the last 400 i tried picking it up but it felt hard to get my legs moving. hit 5:52 which is ok but wished i would've pushed that little bit at the end. cooled down the rest with the girls and it felt kinda long but was better as we ran more. solid day

last run with wat wat and mario ): did a loop from lehi high to like af junior and such. dead legs hence the 8:40ap. i'm gonna miss everyone so so much, but i'm excited for the things to come. wish me luck 

night run with the roomies(: today has definitely been a whirlwind of emotions but i feel blessed to be where i'm at and i'm excited to see where life takes me

ran at night for camp and my legs were tired and my stomach and me and so it was quite a rough run. 

am-6 and felt lots better, good getting to know the team

pm-legs not recovering but having only 2 made it nice

2 mile wu but my calves were really hurting, mainly the left. started workout which was basically like a tempo and stuck with the pack for the first mile but stopped because the uphill killed my calves. went back and aqua jogged 50min.

went off feel and my calves died within the first mile so turned back and did 60min aqua jogging. 

calves hurt on uphill but not downhill or flat. just pushed through the pain today

2mile warm up to tempo loop. Girls team was supposed to run about a 6 flat pace for 2miles. I stuck with the pack for about .75 then died off finishing with a 6:20ap. calves didnt really feel too great so i'll i take it as sorta a win lose cause there was good and bad in there but i mean technically it's the fastest tempo i've ever done. after ran over and did 2x320m hills and man that thing was STEEP but i really like hills and working on form so that part was really good. cooled down the rest of my miles and then half abs, legs, and leg lifts. iced after, and did some adult stuff like laundry and grocery shopping.

am-4 with guppy around campus and such, calves hurt at the end. 8:08ap

pm-6 with heather paytin and guppy on a cool trail but it was so hot i thought i was gonna die so thats fine. don't worry i am alive. no calf probs but certain things are feeling more hurt than they should so idk what's going on. did full core, supplementals, push ups, dips, teages(?), and leg lifts. 

wu 2miles then workout was 800s at 2:56. held pack for first two but sat out the third cause my left calf was flarin. light jog then joined for fourth and stuck with the pack again but it really hurt my calf. sarah pulled me out and told me to light jog the rest of my miles. didn't hurt to do like 9:00 pace so settled at that for the rest of miles. i am v frustrated with my calf cause i felt like this was gonna be a good workout for me, i was in it mentally. guess i'll never know. rip. legs, leg lifts, and core after classes plus some rehab.

am-early with gup gup, did cemetery and around. calf was bugging real bad so cut it short and i'm gonna aqua jog later. 8:15ap. full core, push ups, dips, supplementals, teages, leg lifts.

pm-aqua jogging at rec pool and it was just me and the lifeguard who stared at me like the whole time so that was fun. 40min

am-40min water treadmill, felt weird but in a good way. also you wear socks in water which is the fashion statement of the century 

pm-4miles in a canyon on some trails. besides dry heaving a lil i felt pretty good

am-3 around the cemetery. pace just kept slowing from the get go. my calf hurt

pm-50min water treadmill. felt pretty chill and the time passed easily with tylee. i might be racing tomorrow depending on how the warm up feels. 

apparently it's my hamstring. warm up did not go so hot.

did 60min water treadmill with 5x3min hard and 2min jog. i liked this workout a lot and its nice to finally tap into my mental game again since i haven't really reached that point in a workout. 

am-so besides lack of energy, everything felt super alright! i was tired but no pain and solid run on a cool trail with guppy and tori. also i got randomly selected to get drug tested tomorrow so woooo. shoutout to the ryan raff cause he is on a recruiting trip up here so i got to see him today! full core, supplementals, push ups, dips, teages, and leg lifts.

pm-40min on the elliptical. 

2.5 mile wu then we had hills. it was a loop of uphill then downhill, moderate on the uphills, jog the downhill. did the loop 2.5 times so 5 hills. held the pack for the first 3 then died a little the 4th and a lot the 5th. my hamstring hurt the last two but i knew i would be done soon so just pushed through. cool down then got drug tested. found out i don't do drugs so go me. abs, legs, and leg lifts. 

am-5.82 with guppy and karen. pretty flat and not too fast which was nice

pm-40min water treadmill with tori. literally the time flew by, we just talked about life and it was a good time, we have a lot in common. did full core, supplementals, push ups, dips, teages, and leg lifts plus rehab 

3miles where i felt like i was just dragging my left leg along for the ride. biked 30min

2mile wu. did strides then a mile at 5:45. hurt pretty bad but no i had to do more, did one of the 600s then stopped cause hammy pain. walk/ran back and did 35min biking. gonna just cross train these next couple days but apparently the plan is for me to race byu so fingers crossed everything feels good.

biked 10miles riding next to lyssa today. coach wanted me to ride with the team so didn't really get too much of a workout in but i think my body just needs some rest so it was good. feeling a lot better today 

95min on the water treadmill and full core

2mile wu then strides then 1000s at 5:50 pace with 500m rest. did 2 then coach had freshman sit out one then 2 more (died badly the 4th one) then coach just had me do 500 of the last set and stuck with the pack on that one so finished strong. then mile cool down, felt like throwing up but still haven't done that yet so it's a win. 

am-50min water treadmill with tylee then a grass mile and full core, teages, supplementals, push ups, dips, and leg lifts. 

pm-3.5miles for a much needed hw break. felt good after i took some time to stretch

my legs didnt wanna handle running today. calf/hamstring just hurt so ran back and did 40min on the bike and iced.

ran course and calves just hurtttt but strides didn't so oh well

no race for me

did full core and such then saw the doc again. he thinks my weak hip might be contributing to the pain. not really sure besides when he touched the tendon it really hurts. did water treadmill for 20min then had team meeting and then ran 4miles (didn't wanna run today but i didn't really have a choice cause everyone was going to dinner and i needed a ride home) and then 30min on stationary bike. 

2mile wu. strides then 2x600 and 2x400 at 5:35-5:40 pace. stuck with pack which was good, the third one was supposed to be a 600 but i just did a 400 to ease off. then 1 set of hills at moderate-hard effort. very individual for these and i'm glad cause i did the effort i needed which was good. overall not too much pain, did a 2.5mile cool down 

am-chill chilly 3 miles around the dorms. did full core and teages

pm-60min water treadmill
