thursday
workout today...4x400 with the first 200's at 800 pace, the second 200's at 2 mile pace. I was quite tired and my legs (especially calves!) felt kinda sore...We ran 34-42 first (a bit fast!), then 35-45, 35-45, and finished with 35-47. Warmed up 14 minutes and cooled down 40.

B run +10
Today was B +10 and I did 73 minutes, although I'm not really sure if that is B +10 or B+15. Anyways, I ran with carlijn, Caroline and Erika, which was fun! Although I miss Brennan and hope she continues to run with us (hint hint...). So we went around Waban and I got to listen to carlijn and Caroline converse in French! Then 5 flat strides at the end!
last dual meet
Alrighty, so things didn't go as planned...
I went out in a 34, not a 35. In my defense, I went through 100 in 17 mid, and since the wind was blowing in our faces down the final straightaway it might have been blowing at our backs in the back straightaway. Anyways, I came out with 2:32. rough go all around. Then Carlijn and I did 12x30x30 fartleks, and I did a total of 40 minutes cooldown (plus like 16 warm up). Gts

Monday
Only 39 minutes today...but quite an eventful run!!! hehehehe
anyways, I also did 5 downhill strides with Jessie (!) and then a few paced 100's on the track, which were 17.5 and 18, so I just need to do the 17.5 tomorrow and I'll be fine!!!

Twilight Meet!
What a day! I was freakin' out all day, especially after SATs! It started pouring and hailing, and I thought for sure it would be canceled! And then I got there and warmed up with Eve. As soon as we finished the warm up, they stopped the meet temporarily...for an hour. Eve got fed up and ran, which was impressive! I would never be able to go out and run alone!
The meet finally started, and I ran my race! PR! I ran 5:35.33, which was slower than I had hoped, but also faster than ever ! I'll take it! Although I did get a tad lazy - that 89 in there was a bit of a problem...gotta work on that! I warmed up a total of 23 minutes and cooled down for 67 - I meant to do 60, but then Brennan (suprisingly!) wanted to run more around the pond, and Carlijn needed someone to run with too!
