The King of Controversy

AM-Ran 5 miles out into the fields and then back through Sandberg's pond. I didn't have a lot of energy today and my legs were dead by the end. We had to do 4x200's afterwards followed by plyos. I am way tired now but at least it wasn't hot because I would have probably collapsed. 

I woke up this morning feeling sick as in cough, sore throat, and chest congestion. I felt like I ran pretty well though. When we first started doing the warm up, I realized that the grass was really thick. I knew it was a grass race but nobody even bothered to cut it or anything and this worried me. However, once I was racing I didn't even notice it that much. I started the race out as I usually do (at the back of the pack) and worked my way up. My legs felt great but my throat bothered me throughout the race. I felt like I ran pretty hard still and was able to pass Josh up in the last lap. My finish much like last race was pretty weak but I still was able to pass a couple of guys in the last 150 meters and didn't let them pass me again. My time was no where close to my Hurricane time but I still beat my Cedar Time.

I only ran 3 miles today because I was still sick which is a pretty lame excuse. I felt pretty good today and luckily my throat didn't bother me too much. I ran striders by myself after the run and did weights and plyos once everybody else got back. 

I ran with the Varsity boys for the first part of the run but after falling behind, I turned back and only ran about 3 miles. I didn't have a lot of motivation to run today and took many long breaks. I took so long that I got back after the 5 milers. Hope to run better tommorow. 

Still Sick but still ran the workout, unwillingly, but I still ran it and hey sometimes that is all that you can do. It rained randomly during the warm-up and I was soaked so I ran without a shirt for most of the workout and that was a lot of fun. It wasn't too hot today and the run wasn't too hard but I just don't want to be sick anymore.
