"Train insane or remain the same."

Ok I have a confession to make...I definitely warmed up on the turf barefoot and got some narly blisters on the bottom of my feet so then I hopped on the bikes. No need to make fun of me, trust me, I already know.

We had a dual meet with Westlake but we don't actually have results yet so I'll update the time once I know. We treated this as a workout not an actual race so more like a tempo run. Jamie wanted us to stay together as a pack for the first mile which we did (6:30 pace) then we all kind of split off. About the last 800m a killer wind picked up so I just tried to draft as much as I could and push through, it was a good workout/prep for Grass Relays on Saturday so that's exciting!

Also un-shoutout to @teampre because they dunked me in the SOLW 3 TIMES! #savages and I still gave them hot chocolate so I guess you could say I'm a real friend. But seriously, I'm gonna need some revenge.

We did a speed workout today- 4 800s on the overpass and 2 800s on the track- my splits were 3:16 3:05 3:12 3:06 3:12 2:59 so more or less consistent. It was rainy so a bit cold at the the beginning but fairly refreshing by the end. I felt like it was a good workout we worked really well together as a pack and held our pace so that's definitely good.

Easy high mileage today-in case you didn't notice that means I bumped up my mileage so feel free to congratulate me ;) We ran over to the cemetery and did some barefoot on the grass which felt fantastic.

Pre meet today cuz we have grass relays tomorrow! I haven't had any hay bales to practice jumping over so hopefully I still have my mad ninja skills...

Grass Relays today, I was feeling really good even though it was super hot outside. Our order for the relay was Guppy, Me, Emily, Butters, Alexis. During my leg I felt pretty strong. I just focused on the team ahead of me and tried to slowly work my way up. It was hard to pace myself without anyone else around but I feel like I did ok with that. I passed a couple of people but with about a mile to go I started to kinda fall off pace. I think I just kinda zoned out so it would've been good to throw in a couple surges there. With about 800m to go I got back into it and picked up the pace. I didn't start my kick as soon as I should've though, that last set of hay bales kinda threw me off. I did beat this girl who tried to pass me at the end though so that was sick. Overall our team ran a 66:10 and took 6th out of all the teams there.
