well, i think i need to assess where i am right now. for me. i like to reflect and i just have so much going on in my head lately that this can help me vent and take a break from studying. played basketball and kan jam today, as i'm starting my time off. stretched out my hamstring through out the day too, there's a pretty nice knot in it.
anyway, i've mentioned it a lot but indoor was just a really weird couple of weeks. i ran two awful 5ks and a decent 3k, and i dont know what happened. i can't let these things happen at any point in the season, as i proved at the close of indoor with my mile pr, that i am so much better than that. but somehow, that mile launched me into the best racing i've ever done. i pred in every race until the end of season from that point on. florida was an awesome trip that i think helped make me remember how much fun i can have running. i love being a kid, and i'm never going to let that go. and then at the next 3 races i got back to business in the 5k, pring each time. i had been trying to break 16:00 for 3 years, and it was oh so satisfying to get it by so much at marv frye. my ability to stay smart and by association healthy through these weeks was good, as my knees weren't agreeing with much. i got to all ohio which was a goal, and i even outperformed how i thought i would do there. 5th place isn't bad! and then i said a lot about conference in that log, but i'm glad i got to try a 10k. it wasn't that fun, but i'd do it again everytime, because thats what coach thought i should do, and she had faith in me through indoor, so i trusted her belief in my ability in that 10k. that meeting we had last thursday got me through that 10k. it gave me more confidence than i can convey. i know with coach i'm getting someone who believes in me. i really appreciate that. so this was a very successful season. i'm ready for cross country. i haven't got to think about it much with track at hand, but i love cross country, and track is only a stepping stone. i'm going to enter this season with more confidence in my self than i've ever had thanks to coach. i cant wait to walk off the course at nationals with this team in november.
