Running From Finals

50 min W/ Ethan

Hit the aves, ran through the cemetary, and back up from downtown! Wayyyy to many hills, my right calf is suddenly being stubborn and has been extremely tight, hoping this week doesn't end me! Slowest run in a whil cause of the hills 7:26 pace

Song for the Sold- Kishi Bashi: Beautiful & Unfortunately only on Youtube best song Ive heard in a while

75 Minutes

Ouch! Today Killed! After the crazy hills yesterday, I went and stretched my calf for about an hour and it surprisingly completely fixed it! Unfortunately, because I spent so much time workng on my right leg, I disregarded my left leg! Well, this morning Ethan and I went out for a long run and the rear side of my hip and my hamstring was just killing me! It hurt so bad but I pushed through! I felt bad for Ethan because I ended up cutting the run just a little short at the end, by about 5 minutes cause I was hurting just too bad! The good news is we kept 6:35 pace the whole time which was just nuts! Our fastest mile was a 6:22! I hate that I had to cut our run short, hopefully Ill be ready for our workout friday, Im gonna be doing a ton of stretching!

45 min:

My ankle is gone! Me & Ethan trail ran, that was good Hogle and BST! 1st run @ 19! 20s coming too quick, that scares me! I need new ankles!

50 min:

Ran from 5:45 to 6:45 then got ready for class! Pretty run this morning, very clear sunrise! My legs have had some persisting pains hopefully I'll get them worked out by tomorrow! 

Gone- Vacationer

Aw Man! I love life! This morning was quite possibly the perfect start to my day! Ethan & I ran down to East high to do a workout, we ran past some girls who ran for the Us team, that was cool! When we got to East, we ran began our workout! 2 set of 5 400s! The first two 400s of the set were 78 second pace and the last 400s of the set were 70s, thats 4:40 pace! There was 90 seconds active recovery between each 4 and 5 minutes between sets! It was quite a bit of pain! I started to slow once we hit the last 2 400s of the workout both of mine were significantly slower than Ethans & I almost puked hahah! I think I struglled becauase it was hot today! I still pushed past several mental barriers tho, so Im feeling pretty good about myself! Also the East high football team showed up and cheered us on haha! So we got our own cheer team haha! Afterwards, Ethan & I ran to 711 drank some water and had a good long talk about housing next year! It was nice! Following this, we ran for the long haul up the giant hill that is campus & made it back to the dorm! Going up campus Ethan was telling me that one of the guys @ the Y ran a 13:36 5k in spandex, so he's convinced that spandex is the way to go! After hearing that time, Im nearly convinced as well haha! The funnest part about this run is when we got back our hot water had broke so we both took icy showers haha! 

Welcom to Fabulous Las Vegas- Brandon Flowers: I've been in a bit of a musical rut lately, but everytime i come back to this song it just makes me happy! It always reminds me of the desert, the warmth of home, and going to visit my dad at work!
