Hard Work Beats Talent

5 miles easy, little rusty but that's usually how it is. Core afterwards. 

Did a local 10k for my run it was fairly easy, still getting into it. Core afterwards. 

5 miles easy. Core afterwards.

Very sore from yesterday, had to cut it short. Got to roll out and stretch good tonight! 

Felt really good today. Ran on my own today because Andre and my cousin ran before the Finals game, and went to go on my run just before halftime. It's scary running on your own here in Tuba. When I got back from my run my mom said "Don't be running on your own. A body has been found just behind the school." And where I run its on a trail so there's no one around.  So, from now on I won't be running on my own. Anyways kind of pushed the pace, quad felt good.

5 miles up the ridge. 

5 miles easy. 

First run back with the team, felt good. Aqua Jogged for 30 minutes. 

3.5 mile warmup, then a 1.5 mile tempo. Hit 5:46 for the first mile, and 3:04 for the last half. Felt good, considering soreness. Aqua Jogged for 30 minutes. 

9 miles around 7 minute pace, felt great. I'm glad Sage ran with us today and finally ran with Hayden. It was just good conversations all around. Super stoked that Hayden is apart of  the team! He's a great runner and an even better person, excited to learn a few things from him. 

6.5 miles with Albert. Andre turned around at 2.5. First day back in AZ. 

Warmup, did hill repeats on a sandy hill, cool down. 

Did 8 miles around 6:55-7:05 pace. Then did 8x100 meter finishes. 

3 mile warmup, hit 5:25 for the first mile, 5:37 for the second mile and and got about 2.82 miles in 15 minutes. My second mile was slower because I had to slow down a little to pretend I was picking up a rock because dogs would chase me. Overall a great workout, feeling stronger! 

Good run with Albert. Felt smooth, I'm not sure what we averaged. 

Did a 2 mile warmup, we had a fartlek today. Andre had an appointment today, and he might need PT for his hip. I did this workout on my own. I felt good, running at a higher elevation is a bit tough but I know it'll pay off. 

Did 7.5 this morning with Albert, averaged around 7:25. Did 3 in the evening. Excited to be with the team next week! 

2 mile warmup, hill repeats, and a cool down. Felt tired, but it was a good effort. 

9 miles with the team, kids camp. Did 3 in the afternoon. 

Had a tempo, coach wanted us to be around 5:40. Did 3.5 mile warmup, my mile splits were 5:39, 5:45, and 5:28. And for the last minute and 8 seconds, because it was an 18 minute tempo, I probably got 400 meters because I was pushing it. So far this has to be one of my better workouts on the year. Did 3 in the afternoon with Coach, Spence and some of the girls. 

7.5 with Albert once I got back to Az.
