PRs-

1 mile- 5:42

5k- 19:52

sadly these were all during my freshman year. Since then I've been injured so I'm just trying to make my way back.

Short-Term Running Goals:

-Shin splints seem to be unavoidable but I'm hoping to be able to finish this year without having them turn into stressed fractures.

-I need to learn to be patient with building my mileage slowly. This may seem like a lame goal but this is my biggest problem. I wish I could just run!

Long-Term Running Goals:

One of these days I'm going to run a marathon and possibly an iron man... some day (:

Personal:

I'm a senior in high school and I love running mucho grande! XC is the bomb and Track.. well it's a way to pass time, and keep me in shape. I also love soccer, and I'm slightly obsessed with dancing. I have the best family ever, and great friends. I hope to graduate and go to SUU. I also love going to the lake, river, pool... anything that involves swimming. I like to hang out with friends and basically just keep busy.

Total Distance

6.70

Today's run was GREATT!!! You know that huge mountain type thing out in Bloomington that you want to die just looking at (Web Hill)??? yeah.. well we ran up and over that thing than back up again! WHAT UPP!?! Anyway, I ran with coach roberts on the way there and once we started heading back down the hill the last time he dared me to run with Devin back up the hill for a little ways. So I headed back up. We freakin owned that hill! Then we waited at the top for coach and Curls. (: it was super fun running with the guys, and it was good to push myself. Nothing hurt and I felt great! This run made me realize all over again that you only get out of it what you put into it. I've always known that, but this run just proved it big time. This year's gonna be great!
