it's mental until you pass out, then it's physical

Today was the day I felt mentally prepared for sinced mentioned by Coach Jamie the following week we would be running the Dream Maker! But I was precautious about my mild injuries and decided to go into the fitness center and do a good 15min. bike ride pushing myself as if I were doing the Dream Maker. I felt bad for the bike, for it was drenched in sweat afterwards:) After finishing the Bike ride I lifted lightly and did some good abs.

I ran from the Highschool up to the bottom of airport Dr. and took a left doing a loop around the Cemetery and took a road right that passes the Barber's house and headed under the overpass to the stop light by harts gas station. I went straight through the light and headed back to the highschool in 20:12. I need a GPS watch. I just assumed it was around a 3 mile run. But I felt strong and handled it well throughout the run.

I went and played a round of 18 holes at Thanksgiving Point. I played alright. Shout out to Bob and Jay for winning for the first time since ever! I couldn't believe we lost and our winning streak of never losing has ended... It's ment to happen with time. We bought them shakes at JCW's and I have yet to have a better burger than their Bacon Ranch Burger, Delicious!

Me and my Dad went to the Legacy Center and I biked a nother 30 min. at a moderate tempo.

Shout out to Connor Baller for getting me started in the Fastrunningblog community and getting a PR today in the Dream Maker!

Today was a good distance run. I felt strong the whole time and ran with a good group down to the railroad trail until we reached 3.3 out and then we turned around and headed back to Trafalga to cross state st. and from there we headed back to the school which was a shorter distance than from where we came.

After the run we worked out our legs in the fitness center which is always a walk in the park after a run:)

Shout out to Collin Morrison for making a great protein smoothie for the both of us! It was delicious.

Shout out to Connor Baller for actually being a baller today at Thoms house after practice! and a final shout out to myself for holding the record for most makes in a row! 20!

Today we had a fun grass speed workout at Sego Lily elementary. We did 10 X 60 sec. pick ups at 5K race pace and to be honest I personally felt like we went faster than 5K pace to start out the first 5 intervals, but all in all it was a great work out and I was able to hang close behind the head group of Connor, Thomas, Austin, and Michael! Shout out to them for a good job. Me and Chicken Nugget finished together and helped push each other to finish strong. During the pick ups I had to really push myself to keep going, I was feeling it from the previous day. Don't you all just feel the best (Extremely tired) after a good workout?! Congrats to all who participated.

Shout out to Sami for coming to practice today after a half days drive from Cali and for being a boss at Ping Pong and making me an awesome Bracelet that broke. ha. Lets not forget that she did jump into the SOLW today! Thumbs up to that.

Shout out to Ryan for letting us come over to play Ping Pong afterwards, and for his ginormous genealogy wall!

Today was a high mile day, but from seeing my miles today you can tell I didn't go that far! ha. But, I went back to the High School and biked for a nother 30 min. We went over to the Highland Glen Park today for some of us to time our 3mile-5K time (Not a hundred percent sure of the distance)! We started up with a warm up (and shout out for all who left me behind) and than went to the starting line. Shout out to Ryan and Collin for pushing themselves and finishing strong. It's a more flat and down hill course than it is up hill so it's a PR course! Shout out to Coach Jamie for setting it all up!

We might do a night run tonight so I might update this entry later!

And here I've returned!!! Mwahhhahaha. Okay. I took my sister to soccer practice and then headed over to the Legacy center where I biked for another 10 min. and then I ran a mile on the indoor track. I also did an upper body workout. #Gottagethuge 

When I went and picked up my sister I showed up early so I decided to run another mile barefoot around the field. That felt good.

Shout out to Connor for the night run and for almost getting us killed crossing the road... TWICE. Ha. We did 4.5 tonight from the high school to Vets Park and some little extra. Good job guys! Ohhh and let's not forget what Shenanigans means;) Don't become a victim of it, or you might lose your manhood!

Shout out to Thomas for bringing me his bike to ride in the workout today! It was a 4 mile tempo run and finish with high mileage! Thomas and Connor did super! I biked with them for their whole tempo workout and they held their pace and improved starting with their first mile at 5:41. Chicken Nugget did amazing as well. After they finished I biked back to the high school and ran a 3 mile loop. I was pretty tired:/ ha

Later I went to the Legacy center and biked some more and ran another mile on the track.

I didn't run today.. Unfortunately, but I did go hike Mt. Olympus today with some buddies  and that alone was a good workout! We probably went around 8 miles with all of our wrong turns and side adventures. But the hike up and back is around 7 miles in all together. It was very Picturesque and on the North side of Mt. Olympus, there was a down stream of air and so it just captured and filled that whole side of the Mt. with waves of clouds and on the south side it was nice and clear blue sky. So cool. 

Spent the rest of the day with family:) Good day.
