Wistle hills today, which was unfortunate because I was expecting a distance run and I decided to eat a big ol bowl of frosted flakes before practice...

3 sets of 15, 20, and 25 second sprints up the hill in the cemetery. I felt like puking from the beginning of the second set until the end, when I puked. It was a very solid workout, the frosted flakes just weren't a good idea. I was able to stay in the front for most of them, except one where I was boxed in the whole time. It was solid! Then we finished our miles and did abs. We icebathed in the spring of living waters and went to the Hinkley's for breakfast.

Shout out to Mama Hinkley for making us breakfast!

Easy recovery run today, 8 miles with 7:43 avg pace. Then we had weights (lower body) and core!

The spring of living waters is super cool

Mile repeats in the pit today, 2 of them, our pace was supposed to be between 5:10 and 5:24. The first one for me was 5:07, then the second one was 5:14. I kind of fell off mentally the second one, so I'll have to make sure I'm staying mentally strong. Then I finished up 7 miles super slow

Easy recovery run today, my legs were super super dead the first half, but kind of woke up as time went on. Average pace was 7:33. Then we had weights (upper body) and I maxed out on the bench at 105 after 10 reps of 65, 8 reps of 85, 6 reps of 95, and 5 reps of 100, so we'll see how sore I am tomorrow!

Shout out to Connor baller for winning the pull-up challenge and Strrt because his birthday was yesterday!

We had 10 90 sec pickups today with 90 sec active rest. The pickups were at 2-mile pace, but I never really knew what pace I was actually doing because I didn't look at my watch... So 1-4 went well, I was towards the front right behind Connor and next to Thomas. The 5th one I fell off a little bit to the back of the pack because it was starting to get difficult. At that point I made the choice to stick with Ryan and Connor in the front and see what happened. 6-10 were really good, but Connor fell back, so it was mainly Ryan and I leading. I was able to stay there until the tenth one where Ryan pulled away a little bit. It was a solid workout!

Late shout out to Coach Rachel because she's having a boy
