wu and then the kicker. It was my first time running it this season and my goal was to beat Watsons time. Unfortunately I started out way to fast. I felt great till the top of the last hill and I just hit a wall. Shoutout to Brynlee though who pushed me to keep running even when I was completely dead. My time wasn't even close to beating Watson but I'm happy with my effort and I think with it being my first time of the season that's what matters most. Abs, hips, and push-ups. 

Recovery run today and man my legs were tired. Took it pretty slow. Did weights 3 then abs, hips, and push-ups. super proud of myself for sticking to my push-up goal because for once in my life I don't hate push-ups. I also started doing my hips with a resistance band this week and that's been good. 

wu to the cemetery and I got a little worried for easy pace because my legs felt completely dead and it was only the wu. we did a grass mile, I wasn't really watching the pace I was just doing what felt good and when we finished I looked down and we had ran a 6:49! It did not feel like we were going that fast so that was a win. Played a game and then I finished up mileage with Hannah. my legs were still tired but easy pace was actually pretty easy today. Abs, hips, and push-ups :)

mile wu then another easy pace run but today was medium mileage instead of low. I felt way good on the wu so I had no doubt in my mind that the rest of the run was going to be great! Except it wasn't at all, first 2 miles I was just hanging on to the the rest of the group  to stay on pace  and when I had to run back by myself it got really rough. My mental game definitely wasn't there today. First 2 miles were on pace 3rd mile I fell off a little bit and then last mile I got back on. This may sound super weird but one of the things that helped me the most to get back on pace that last mile was visualizing some of the girls all running next to me and I just imagined sticking with them and it really helped me relax and focus on something besides how tired I was. Anyways I got back did weights 4, abs, and hips. Once again I'm very grateful for the push-ups I've been doing because push-up rows weren't nearly as bad as they normally are. Also talked goals with Jamie and I'm pretty pumped for this season! 

Mile wu then tempo run. The range was 6:03 to 6:50 but I was shooting for around 6:35. First mile was 6:35 which was perfect. Second mile didn't go as well. I panicked fell off of the pack and ended up with a 6:44 and then last .5 I was just trying to finish. Not what I wanted, not super great but that just means plenty of room for improvement. Did Abs and hips with some quality people then push-ups at home.

ran today.
