so coach wanted to go on a run that went through a meadow and then see where the trail went, which it ended up being just like the run yesterday, but worse, more inclined hills. on the way back I almost ran into several people. it was 4 miles. and we left camp today.

5 miles with 2 Tempos today. so it was my first tempo run and I had to run it by myself. :( i got a little lost and had to jump a wall so I could continue my loop that I did.

Afternoon run was with Ali, Liz, Kaelie, and me. we ran from my house to chick-fa-la and back (3 miles). It was a pretty nice run. We saw the Frodshams, my grandma and aunt, and some random people drive by and wave. I freshman raced Kealie at the end of the run and she was like clawing me with the garmin but i still beat her. oh yeah.

best race ever!!! so i didnt start as fast as i did last time cause i noticed that dhills guys past me at cedar and i didnt have anything in me. so i started just strong and then i just never settled and kept getting faster and faster. i passed like 20 people on the last lap and finished right behind josh farenman. i think that was the best race, not time wise, i have ever ran.

am- the usual run and i hurt a little on my theigh. i will ice it though.

pm- so i didnt show up on time to running and had to jump out of our van to run with the team cause they had just started. we were behind the school and saw them and my mom saw like," hey there they are! Okay Dallen, jump out and go on your run!" so i did. the reason that i was late was because i had an ortho apointment and when we got there, there was a plig fam and so it took an hour to get in for the apointment. it was quite the long wait.but i got back just on time so i got to get my run in. it was 7 miles total.
