Silverwood

September 12, 2009 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: cool

Comments:
Goals: stay positive, PR, stay on varsity, keep up with Meghan, sprint at the end

Things I did well: kept up with Meghan (kind of), I didn't slow down, I tried to ignore my pain

Things I didn't: wasting my energy

Mile 1: I used all of my energy. All of it.

Mile 2: Sluggish. Side ache.

Mile 3: "Keep going. Don't slow down because if you do you'll just be in pain longer."

Last 100 meters: got passed by a Rocky girl

So, yeah, I PR'd. But it definitely wasn't my best race, which is odd because usually I do really well at Silverwood. I don't know what I did wrong that gave me the side ache and made me feel sluggish.

But I can take from it. I just need to work harder, is all that I've realized from this race. My body will just have to adjust to going faster. Because I'm not even near my running plateau yet.

Thanks to the coaches for an awesome trip!!
