I Eat PAIN-cakes for Breakfast

Today was a sort of distance day. Due to rain and cold, Reagen and I ended up doing 4 miles at a pretty good pace. I felt like I could have gone a bit farther, but coach Hill advised against it. FootLocker is next week, I'm pretty excited. I'm racing a 5k on thanksgiving so hopefully I'm still in pretty good shape. 

We had a speed workout today. We did one mile(ish) at about eighty percent. That was followed by 10 repeats. Coach Hill had us run up hill, around some trees, and back to the started. That added up to a mile give or take. Those hurt, but felt good. We have thanksgiving break now. I plan on getting in some good runs before footlocker. 

Today was an easy five mile run. I actually felt super good today. At one point though, five semi trucks passed me and the exhaust was killing my lungs. Other than that though, it was a great run! I'm super pumped for tomorrow, Thanksgiving is probably one of my favorite holidays. 

I ran the community thanksgiving 5k today. I felt pretty good through most of it. It wasn't as cold as last year. My lungs were killing me though, I haven't fully adjusted to te cold weather yet. I was in first place for the girls for most of the race. I was barley passed with a half mile to go. I would have passed her but I didn't have the motivation. I ended up winning $50 though. That was nice (I'm poor). S/O to Kedric and Kenny for being beasts and killing it. 

Today was an easy seven miles. It was pretty cold and my legs were tight. Other than that, I felt pretty good. I should run when it's warmer, but it's more convenient in the morning.
