am- nice easy run out to starbucks like usual

pm- Wow what a day for a workout. So Coach gave all the guys and girls who qualified for state a super dope duffel bag so I am totally gonnna qualify for state this weekend in the 3200m which is the only event I am doing again:) Anywho, the workout today was 10x400's @ race -3secs(recovery 2min first four, 1.5min next three, 1min last three). So for me on the 400's was 69. So we start out and my legs were a lil' sore but no worries people, I did not give up! At first I just thought I will go right with Preston. And that worked cause we had the same time. So the first five reps were 70, 68, 68, 68, and 69. Then Preston was starting to start faster but I would serge hard with 150m left and finish right next to him. So that was what happened the rest. Reps were 69, 69, 69, 69, and another 69. A great workout today, I am really happy with how I have really came back from a crappy start to track season. I think I just wasn't in the right mental state. And then at the Ultraspire meet over at D-hills I guess I decided to get my head out of my butt! haha alright that's it for today.

WORD OF THE DAY: my word for today is "cheater" cause Coach Holt can give you a good talk about what that is;) Wow it is so asinine when people cheat, honestly!
