Today was mile repeats. My first one was 6:15. I wasn't able to finish the second repeat as my shin splints acted up. My 800 split was 2:45. After that, I stopped. I need to heal and recover.

Today was the hill challenge. My shin splints felt better so I gave it a try. Sadly, they acted up. I was unable to finish. I was bummed but it's important that I heal. Henderson is having me take the rest of the week off and start fresh Monday. He assured me that I would be fine for my meet next Saturday and time trials on Tuesday.

Finally got to run today!!! I felt really good. My shins didn't act up. They were a little stiff, but they felt normal after about a half mile. My hips were sore, but I was expecting that. I'm super happy with the workout. We have time trials tomorrow. I'm pumped for those.

Today was time trials. I was actually very happy with my time even though I wanted faster. My lower back and hamstrings tightened up during the race. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't go faster. That's was to be expected though. I never do well when I take time off. Also, since I wasn't allowed to cross train, I had a lot of lactic acid build up. So all things considered, it was an awesome race. My team did well too. It is very encouraging. I think if we keep working and pushing, we could qualify for state.

Today was easy recovery and core. I concentrated a lot on my form. I over extend my stride so I tend to heel strike. I've been working on trying the correct that as well as pumping my arms more. Better form means a faster time.

Today was intervals. We did two 1 mile repeats and two 800 repeats. For the mile repeats, coach had us partner up. While our partner ran, we were supposed to stretch. As soon as they finished the repeat, we went while they stretched. I was partnered with Rachel. We both killed it. We both hit around 6:45 for both repeats. I felt pretty sore today. However, a lot of people had the same soreness I did, so it must have been the core from yesterday. After we finished the mile repeats, coach split the girls and boys up for the 800's. The boys went first. I ended up PR'ing in my 800, twice. I personally didn't measure the course, but multiple people told me it was a full half mile. I ran a 2:38 for the first repeat and a 2:37 for the second one. It all felt really good! I think the speed helped moved the lactic acid out of my system. Our first meet is the Premier Invite on Saturday. I am very excited.
