Personal:

I'm a junior at Hurricane High School. I love music. I sing in the chamber choir and I play the piano and the guitar. Other sports that I love include basketball, soccer, and racquetball. By the way, if anyone's up for a game of racquetball, I'm game! Anyways, gotta run...

Half a mile for warm up.  Then coach told us we have an easy week, which I really need so he wanted us to go long but easy.  Matt and I decided to go to Molly's Nipple, a prominent point in the mountain range along the east side of Hurricane.  It was 3 miles to the base, 1 mile of steep uphill climb (which we did not run, just hiked).  So it was 8 miles in all.  Great view at the top!  Could see for miles!  I even saw the D on the Dixie hill!  It was a nice run, but going uphill really worked my calves.  I'm not doing that run again anytime soon.  Took forever!

Half a mile warm up.  Then we went 4 really easy miles and it was nice to have some fun with the guys.  Then we did 8x100 strides at 17, 16, 15, 14, 14, 15, 16, 17.  That was really easy and I hardly even got breathing, but it was mainly form and it felt really good.  This was the first really easy day in a while and I loved it!

Didn't run today because my blister got really bad, I think from P.E. and also because the track team was gone to Page and I had to go to solo and ensemble for chamber choir.  When I got back I had to plan for Prom on saturday and help someone ask really late (three days before).  Oh well, it's my easy week.

Didn't really have track practice today cause of the freshmen meet.  I came and ran with Joe anyway.  We ran like a mile and a half.  Then we ran 4x200s pretty fast.  Then cooled down a half a mile.  Felt really relaxed and didn't push at all.  I'm really loving this week!

Woke up this morning with a sore throat and a stuffy nose.  Very bad sign.  I'm going to be sick.  I decided I better not run today cause it always makes it worse.  I came home and watched a movie and slept for about 3 hours.  I feel a little better now, but it's just starting.  Tomorrow is Prom so it was kinda bad timing, but hopefully I feel good enough to still go.  I got sick last year at the same exact time!  I always get sick twice each year!  Once in the middle of cross-country season and the other in the middle of track season!  I hate it!  But there's nothing I can do now but rest and recover quickly.

I didn't run today because of Prom and because I'm still sick.  I was feeling great this morning, but after a long day of expending my energy I'm now back to where I started.  Prom was great though!  I think the best thing for me to do now is get some good rest and try to recover as quickly as possible.
