The King of Controversy

PM - 7 miles. Roller coasters. I led the pack over there and was feeling really good. I started running the roller coasters and my legs started burning and I wanted to quit. But I just kept taking it step by step and telling myself to push myself up and down each hill and that it was almost over. I was able to stay up front throughout the whole thing and I am so happy. It is a huge improvement from the last time I ran roller coasters where I started walking on some of those hills. I felt great on the way back too so overall great run.

PM - 4x1000 with Harts warm and cool. It was around 6.5 miles I think. Coach had the lower level 2 boys hang back today with the girls so Rachel and Mia (well just all of those top girls) would have somebody to kinda pace them. My first one was really strong and me Andrew led the pack along with Rachel and we came in about 3:15. My next times were about the same with my last one being 3:17. So it was a pretty consistent workout for me. I really loved leading the pack too because  it really gave me a reason to keep pushing and learn how to set the pace a little bit.

5 miles and then striders at the end. I ran at about noon with my brother and we took my sister out a little ways with us. My mom was taking my younger siblings to the park so we decided to run from there. It was at Cox park in Dixie boundaries kinda by the post office. At first it was a really slow pace because we had to stay with our sister but it was really fun to give my sister some tips on her form and kinda helped me think about my form too. Pretty much an uneventful run otherwise though. The grass that we did striders on was crappy and mostly dead but whatever. At least I got my run in and got my brother to run with me. 

5 miles. I ran over foremaster today before going to a turkey bowl. I started out with my mom but since her pace was a little slow and I didn't have a lot of time before the turkey bowl, I left her. It wasn't a difficult run and I was feeling good until the last part of my run. I don't know what it was. My legs were feeling good but I just had no desire to run which hasn't happened to me for a long time. It was a nice quiet run which was nice but I still wish I could have gotten my brother to come.
