Most people were at the snow canyon meet today but me and a few others had an easy run out on the trails.  nice and easy 6 miles!

.5 mile warm up with hurdles and stretches.  2 mile warm up with strides! then 2x1000.. there was really no time to hit but I hit around a 3:30.  since the other girls were doing an easy run I jogged a few laps and waited to run the finishes with the boys.  The first finish was a 350.  then we did a heart rate recovery.  then 300, 250,200 and 100.  It was a fun workout and my legs were definitely tired! Afterwards we did a 1 mile cooldown and plybata and stretches!  i also got a massage :)

then the 1600, I got out to a good position and lead the pack about the first 2 laps. then orem and hurricane came up the last 1-2 laps.  My time was 5:20, 3rd place and qualifying for state.  It was a pretty good race!

2 mile cool down.

I woke up around 8:10 and decided to run to the school to watch the 3200 race.  Its about 2.5 to the school.  So I got there and watched courtney, the boys and sam!  They all did awesome!  Then I ran home, ate lunch and my mom drove me back to the school to watch the 800, warm up and race in the 4x400. I was the first leg in the race and my time was about a 1:03-1:04ish.  which is a pr from a few weeks ago!  the 4x4 is a really fun fast race!  after that I got a half mile cool down.

.5 mile warm up with drills

2 mile warm up with strides

1x2400 with surges. the first lap was a 1:19 ish and then 20 seconds slower the next lap.  Im not sure what i hit because my watch wasnt working but i think i was off a little.

then we did 2x300 which were good and then 2x150 which were also good!  

1 mile cool down... good workout even though its a million degrees out here!

2 mile warmup then the first race was the distance medley.  rachel ran the 1200, chloe the 400, court the 800 and me the 1600.  after that it was the 4x100 which was wayyy to short! but me and court teamed up with mia and another pine view girl and took 2nd! whaddup?! then the sprint medley... i ran the 200 and then the 4x200.  so yeah!  then me and court went for a 2 mile cooldown.  oh and we watched the boys do the hurdles, i think they need to brush up on their form!! so anyways it was a nice relaxed fun meet!

.5 mile warm up with drills then an easy 5 on the hidden valley trail!  it was definitely hot today so the ice bath felt good!

then a 2.5 mile cool down with the boys. then i sat in the shade a while and watched the other races.

 before the 4x4 i just did some strides and a little warm up

i was the first leg as usual then court was 2nd, mikayla was 3rd leg and olivia was 4th.  our goal was to qualify for state which is a 4:13.  Our overall time was a 4:09 and first place!!!  My split was about a 1:04 i think which isnt too bad!  It was super fun and I guess we set a new school record! 

afterwards courtney wanted to get a cool down so I went with her for a 2 mile cooldown.
