One Mile at a Time

2.8 this morning. Not very cold and it was weird not running in the dark.

7.65 in the afternoon. Coach had meetings so we didn't do the Reaper. Matt, Ali, Riley and I went to almost the AF stop light. We passed the AF guys as they were headed to the Grinder. Not a super fast run today. 4 barefoot strides after then stretching and abs. Shoutout to Collin for committing to ISU! He's a beast!

2.9 in the morning.

Reaper today. Kind of thought we would do a speed workout but I guess not. I'm happy with how it turned out. The middle part could've been a little bit faster and I could've hung with Ali near the end but I got a PR and broke 9:00. Talked about NXR after practice. I'm excited for that. Ali and Riley made a deal and if Trump wins Ali has to give a speach about Hillary's loss and if Hillary wins Riley has to about Trump so that will be pretty entertaining.

Applegrove in the AM.

1.5 mile warmup then 30 30s for 20 minutes. 3.4 total with a 5:57 AP. Riley used his watch only for the fast and it was 2 miles at a 5:04 pace. Good workout. Ran with Riley and Ali for all and Jared was with us for most. Mile cool down and abs. Ali delivered a great speech. Very entertaining.

2.85 in the morning.

Drove up to Kiwanis then ran to three story and back. 8 miles in the foothills 6:30 ish ap. 4 strides and abs after. So, that's the run but before the run we met Mr. Adams. He saw us driving up so he followed us then informed us that a truck full of naked boys was the funniest thing he had seen all week. Mr. Adams, or as he also told us, Sal. T Sinner, was an old man in a crappy old car with two dogs and he was just cooked. He was the weirdest dude. He was talking to us and kept yelling at his dogs to shut up, then he told us his dogs obey him more than he obeys the Lord and that we shouldn't grow up to be like him. He told us after the run to come by his house and grab some apples since he owned an orchard which we decided not to do. Anyways, really funny guy and next time I talk to any of you ask about him because I can explain much better in person.

2.9 in the AM. Only me, Jared and Ali showed up.

Speed in the afternoon. Some of the girls made coach start practice at 2:32!!! It was crazy! We've never started before 2:37. Anyways, 1.5 mile warm up then 4 1200s. I don't like 1200s. Mile cool down after. Coach said practice will be different tomorrow morning so I'm not really sure what that mean, maybe it'll be frisbee. Or something really hard, who knows. Oh, we had our banquet yesterday, I got most improved. I guess when you drop more than two minutes that's significant improvement. Getting pumped for NXR. Coach entered me, Jared and Riley in the seeded so I'm not sure how that works but hopefully we're in it.

30 minute run today. All the guys ran towards Discovery for 15 minutes. Jared, Matt, Ali and I made it to the middle of the baseball diamonds. 4.7 6:20 ap. Got back and got 1.1 in playing frisbee. At one point I was sprinting and then somehow slipped or something I'm not really sure and I slid for about 5 yards and cut my knee a little too. It was pretty funny. My team got wrecked. You can't win 'em all. Sadie's today so I'll probably get another 5 miles at the dance, maybe not.
