Personal:

My mother forced me to start running as a freshman in high school.. and as much as I hate to admit it, I actually ended up liking it. Graduated from Pine View High School in 2013 and, after a yearlong hiatus, I am now running again, this time for USU, where I'm working on a composite Elementary Ed/Deaf Ed major.

AM: Same old stuff.

PM: Workout.. 10x400! DI warmup, Harts cool down. So. Today was the first day I've used my inhaler before a workout. And I was kinda nervous that it might not work. I was supposed to be hitting around 1:25 for each 400. And for the first 6, I hit right about there or lower. Then it got a little harder to breathe and I think I let it freak me out. I kinda lost it there for 2 or 3 laps, hitting as slow as a 1:28. But I really tried to keep positive and on the last one, I really tried to push it and I hit a 1:21. But really, it wasn't so bad. My breathing was relatively controlled and I stuck in there with Stoner and Frida for the first half. And I actually finished the workout, which is always a plus. To tell you the truth, I'm way excited for the meet this weekend (mainly because I'm not running the 3200.. but don't tell Coach).

Definitely NOT my best race. It wasn't really my breathing, or my calves.. I just felt like I couldn't go. I tried. I felt like I was pushing myself.. but I just wasn't moving. I also ran the 800 in the medley.. ran the same time as last week, a 2:33. We took third though, so that was good.. I felt like I was going to pass out after though. It was SO hot. On the upside, I got a nice tan.
