So I haven't recorded in a while cuz I suck at remembering, but starting today I'm re dedicating myself!! My XC season didn't go as I wanted so I'm determined to not let that happen this track season. I've been learning more about your mentality and how if affects your running, -and I really see a lot of benifit writing down how I felt about runs and something I did well, and something I can improve on, as well as my goals for the day or week, so basically this is going to be my "Mental Skills journal" as well. If I can do this consistently I onow I'll have a great track season!! Today I ran 4 miles, mostly by myself cuz I had to go home and grab my shoes, I caught up with the boys and just kept going fast. My average was a 6:12 and my last mile ended with me doing to laps on the track and I got a 5:34 for that mile. My stomach felt kinda sicky (probs cuz I ate way to much starbursts). The wind was at my back most of the time but i still can tell I'm not amazing shape but still decent shape. Tomorrow we are doing the EGG NOG CHALLENGE, so I'm excited for that. My goals for my next real run (Saturday) is to run how I feel, and then starting picking it up towards the end and to mentally check myself and think "am I really going as fast as I can"
