Alli's running blog

AM- I had to run on my own this morning cause brockman finally called me!! (Also I didn't let anyone know that I wouldn't be at practice cuz I got my phone taken away so coach plz don't be mad at me). It was pretty hard. I ran into mustang pass again. That's as far as I've ever been down that trail. It was raining quite. I picked it up on the way back cause I was going sooo slow on the way there so my average for the last couple miles was 7:25-7:30. I have to drive with brockman all week but I'll be at practice tomorrow. Countdown to my birthday- 10 days!!!!

PM- 30 supposed to be easy but it was so hard for me. I wore all black which was actually a dumb decision of the day but it felt like we were going so speedy. Either way it's good to be back with the girls and have us all together again

AM- 30 min grass run.

PM- 30 minutes easy to Caroline's house. My achillies started kinda bothering me again so I turned earlier and went slower. Now I get to go to a wedding for 2 people I don't know for like 10 hours...

No progression for me today because I didn't have a watch in the morning and I just couldn't motivate myself to go in the middle of the day/heat. Did 4 with a quick finish with jessica. We were going in the low 8s and mid 7s the whole run so we weren't going super slow. I need to work on making myself run what I'm supposed to even if I can't run with the team.

AM- Probably about 4. I had to turn around early so I could go drive. I passed! So now I just have to wait for my birthday (7 days). Ran the way back with Sylvia & Caroline and had some good chats about life and driving and parents and trees.

PM- easy 30 to arctic circle. Really fun run

Warmed up for the race. We got to the starting line and rylee said we should stick it together for the first 2 miles then go on our own and me and Sylvia said alright. We started out and weren't going too fast. We were in 2nd and just kind of chilling behind this lady. We ran up this one road and saw a turtle that was completely smashed it was gross. When we got to mile 2 we decided we probably shouldn't split up haha. But Sylvia fell back about at this time and me and rylee passed the lady at like 2.5. When we were about at like 3 miles we saw the boys team running around and they started yelling at us asking who was gonna be first so we both just started booking it. We ended literally within milliseconds of each other but the people said I was first probably cuz I'm cuter. Then cooled down to probably about 5 miles.

Easy 45 around my neighborhood
