Running Accomplishments:

PRs-

1 mile- 5:42

2 mile- 12:56

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!

-1 mile- 5:50

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.

Really good run today! I ran with our girls team on the way there and we ran pretty slow so I ran with Josh and Matt on the way back. We ran freakin fast and it felt great! (: I got a runners high again!! woot! (: I ran without my IT band strap again and I didn't hurt at all. My shins didn't even hurt. I think we need to discuss how important it is to keep hydrated cause I keep having to get back from my runs really fast in order to get my car and pick up a dehydrated person. FREAKIN DRINK WATER!!!! Ess GOOODD! (:

AM-I ran 5 with Kaylee, and stoner today, and a mile of striders afterwards. It was a good run. I really need to ice stretch and roll though.

PM-easy 3 in the blazing heat... let's just say that it wasn't so easy. It was fun though. we all ran as a team and you can tell that we're all getting a lot closer. we have a few gaps that we need to close (not just physically but socially) then we'll be good. (:

7 miles of hills... I ran 4x1 minutes and 6x30 seconds. It was really hot but it didn't kill me, and what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. So consider me stronger (:
