Track at Talyorsville

This past weekend the track team headed down to Taylorsville, Utah to run at the Utah High School Track and Field Coaches Association (UHSTCA) meet. When we arrived it was very windy and quite cold. I wore my track warm-up bottoms and hoodie. It stayed pretty cold through the 100/110 m hurdles and the 100m dash. Then came the 1600 meter run and it started to warm up by the end of the meet it was roughly 53 degrees with a slight wind chill.
At this meet I ran my fastest time in the 1600 m run at 5:55 and my fastest time in the 3200 m run at 12:54. Both becoming my new personal records. All in all the day went well. . . except for the sunburn, OUCH!
I hope to improve from there and go on to run a 5:30 1600m and 11:44 3200m.

State Indoor Track

This weekend was full of fun and excitement! I ran a whopping 35 times around a 160 meter track ( that doesn't count warming up) !! I lost ten pounds in the sauna/arena and got a nose bleed because we were so high up!!
Okay, so it wasn't what is was all cracked up to be. I ran pretty good considering the circumstances. In the end I had a 6:25 mile, our 4x800 team took 8th place and all received medals, and last but not least I ran a 13:30 something two mile. Our boys team came home with a trophy for 4th place, that was pretty exciting!!
All in all everything was pretty fun even the ride to Laramie and back was semi enjoyable.

Baby it's cold outside!

On Thursday of last week we went for a morning run. It was pretty cold outside. I think my face went numb after about 10 minutes. It felt good to run and get the oxygen following at 5:30 in the morning. The only down-fall was that I was tired the whole rest of the day. If I start to run every day in the morning it won't make me tired during the day and I will be able to function at a higher level.
