My alarm went off this morning and I just did not feel like running. I checked the weather on my phone and saw that it would be the same in the evening as it was in the morning and went back to sleep. My run was at tempo pace, which is 7:20ish. It felt really good to run fast today. I was really calm and happy after I finished. Ragnar is this week and I'm super excited for it. I have an 8 mile run of death that I have to do, but I'm excited. Ended my run to Nirvana's Smells like Teen Spirit. Did you know you can replace all the lyrics in this song with the word potato? Try it. :)

5 miles with McKenna this morning. After a mile warm up and dynamics, we ran from the park to 7-11 to Aggie and back to the park. After that we walked a lap in the park and did some dynamics. It was nice to catch up with McKenna. I look forward to running XC with her.

Mile warm up and dynamics with McKenna. After that we ran the time trials course during which we tried to concentrate on form. Dynamic cool down after. The pavilion at the park was infested with pigeons today. They were cooing really loud and it was sort of scary and slightly annoying.

Met up with McKenna again and did the same workout from yesterday but at a faster pace. Saw Aaron driving some kind of evil, lawn mower death machine up the road. I'm only slightly concerned.

So I ran the Wasatch Back Ragnar this week. S/O to my van (Mason, Christian, Kedric, Eugene) for putting up with me getting lost and any other annoying things I did. S/O to my parents for giving up their weekend to drive sweaty, hungry, tired teenagers in a van for two days straight. S/O to van 2 (Aaron, Austin, Kenny, Kyrie, Ciera, Jordan) for kicking major trash on all their runs.  I was the 4th runner for my team. I ran a 4.4, 3, & 8.1 leg (plus 5 miles, more on that later). My first run was good. I held an 8 flat pace despite it being somewhat hilly and hot. My night run was interesting. I ran my three miles and then Kedrics five mile leg because I missed the exchange. Everyone including me thought I was or was going to have a Criminal Minds moment and get kidnapped. I didn't know where I was and they didn't either. We reunited at exchange 17 luckily. Because I ran 8 miles for my night run, my legit 8 mile leg was rough. I was very sore and tight and my knees were killing me. My time was slow  but whatever. We were short a runner so I am counting my additional 5 miles as running one of her legs since Kedric ran her leg in place of the one I ran for him. I had so much fun and our whole team did really well. I loved hanging with the people in my van. We made so many crazy memories and jokes. I got like 78 kills total so that was pretty awesome.
