am- today was 45 min. with 15 min tempo. Great workout for me today. I started out in front for the first 9 minutes. Then when i started feeling like falling off, i remembered what coach said last week on thursday which was somethin like ''We have gone this far in the workout, finish it strong and dont let the pain get you.'' I jumped up and would kinda lag a lil' but kept pushin and finished the tempo with the top 5 guys. great run overall. My knee was startin to hurt, so i will ice for sure.  

pm- 30 min E. Jogged around the hood with my dog. My ankle started to hurt but it went away after a minute or two. Good run but it sure is hot!

am- today was 35 min. E with the 6 minute Test! Dang i loved this run today a lot! I was feelin great and the six minute test came and i pushed and tried to stay as relaxed as possible. I was 4th for the guys at one point but finished 6th behind Nick, Paul, Logan, Cam, and Preston along with Andrew right behind me. Great day at lil kids club except for when a guy in our group started attacking other boys and choked a few of them!

pm- 30 min. E. nice run with Mitch. Felt real chill and got a good nap in today and so that was real nice!

am- 6.3 miles/ 30 min. E and 20 min. grass

We did the parkway loop up to Maverick and down the hill and 'round back. I wore my asics shoes cause i thought it was gonna be a short run in shoes and long in grass. oh well i had to deal with it. Anyways, we went to the baseball fields and ran on the biggest one and talked as a team about staying healthy and other good stuff!

pm- 3.33 miles/ 30 min. E

Easy 30 with karissa riding her bike behind me.

am- 5.58 miles/ 45 min. with strong finish

Okay todays run was my favorite run ever! those tunnels are so dope. went out to dino tracks but us level 2 guys had to cut the loop short cause we were going 15 minutes shorter than the level 3 guys. Good run but my knee is still doing the same thing which is hurting right after we finish our runs. I dont know if its i just have bad knees genetically cause its been goin on for a year or two and my dad doesnt think its anything.

am- 5.01 miles/ 40 min. with 5x4:30 cruise

So i couldnt go to the Bloomington park to practice there because i have a HOpe squad thing so i ran by myself at the field behind panorama to get the same type of experience as the team out at the park. The 5x4:30 cruise went good but it was hard to run on my own. I was a 6 min pace the whole thing though so it was good. 

Had some extra time before i had the HOPE squad thing so i did yoga with Fiji! it felt sooo good.

Wore my new shoes today and it was a nice, good run besides the fact that it was hotter than heck outside!
