Camera Park Quad Race. Wasn’t until 3/4 of the bus ride until I realized I had forgotten to bring a bandaid for my blister. Felt every bit of it, toughed through it, ended up winning my battle against 2 people. I wouldn’t say I’m happy with my time, but I’m not dissatisfied either. I understand the factors for today’s race, not the best. I’d still give it an enjoyable reaction. I have enough time for this blister to improve until my next race, on October 4th. Hopefully I can “shine” there.

First 3 miler, first time with spikes as well. Spikes felt heavenly, felt like I was floating. Did something wrong with my spikes , felt a terrible pinch feeling on my foot for 2 miles. Ended with a nice blister. Good to see my improvement

Red Devil Invite. Prep was good, slept well, ate well, and I believe it paid off. Ran solely based off placement today, wanted to stay in my spot or move up if possible, so I really pushed myself. I believe it shows as I have shaved off 40 seconds since last meet. Excited to see what else is in store this season.💯💯💯

Debut Single B but reversed. My only goal during this run was to stay close to the group so I could see where to go on parts that I had never ran (the start). Felt good. Did a little at Robbin’s + Strides. Hyped for Red Devil tomorrow.

Other half of today’s workout. Unfortunately missed the Visualization as I had a little bit more time to do on the elliptical.

Decided to do another half and half today. Felt a tiny bit of pain in my legs, hopefully it subsides before the Red Devil. Went 25 minutes today as I felt sore since yesterday. Did the final kick 200m before coming back. Came back and did the elliptical for 25. (See other post for distance of other half)

Stress Day. Did 2x1K’s, still getting back into the swing of things. Started with a 10 minute warmup, followed by stretches+strides with the other sophomores. Did a tempo run, around 7:40-50. Then did my 1K’s, times were 4:45 and 4:42. Started pouring so we did the cooldown in the field house. Finished with core.

Labor Day run at waterfall. First run back since being sick so I decided to go 30 out and back. Didn’t feel the best until I had gotten back, it felt like I was in a runners high, so I just did another 10 around the start. Did 6x15 second strides along with core.

Recovery run for 45 minutes. Didn’t ice my legs after the meet yesterday, so it felt pretty bad. Ran with Jason for most of not all the run.
