i won a race-the 3200 or 2 mile for the nonrunners
got a 10.23 which was cool the next race was funny with a 4.59 first mile split and a 5.32 second split crappy but w/e
the mile i got down to 4.51 this last week in the fresh/soph invite the meet as a whole was pretty tight but coulda been better the 2 mile i shoulda won i was kinda slacking and pretty much "sitting" around practicaly a bounce i didnt relize how much energy the guy behind me had left till the end and it really bit me in the but i started my kick a little late around the 600m mark and wasnt up to speed till the start of lap 8 sped upo to a 79 but the guy still picked me off in the last 200....my usual HEY THERE MISS ME!? spot so that hurt the pride a bit , i still used up a ton of energy on that race so i didnt have the great kick but like earlier w/e
then the 4x400 beast of a race , to be honest even i didnt know i had that much footspeed in me i ripped it and got a 56 fastest in my group, it was a blast i cought the relay team back up with my speed but in the end the dang filthy sprinter ;) lol jk the're all right but he pulling a sprinter move pulled back up and out kicked me, pretty dang good for a humble distance kid if i do say so myself...and i do.....jk lol but it was a blast the endorphines were great the lack of pain was nice too

life?
so my life is a little odd im kinda living for the next practice from day to day just fighing through and getting things done just to make it through
in a way that is ok but my life is just kinds blech at the moment classes are killer and im not meaning that as killer hard and some of my teachers are driving me nuts.
im kinda glad i DO have running just so that i have something to look forward to that will make the day better i mean my friends make my days bearable and give me something to lookforward to at class but im going insane with it all.
o btw thursday was a one second pr (4.53.40) and a how ever much pr in the 3200- 10.32
then saturday was a blast with the invite and geting to mess around iwth everybody and hang out and get some halfway decent sleep on the bus, i Pr'ed by .02 seconds at that one.

12 for track 22 for sixteen
well i decided that i should post a little something since i havnt in a bit , i cant remember what exactly i posted last so i might leave stuff out or go over stuff again.
so something a friend said got me thinking - like alot, i was told to step up and do my part in every aspsct of my life running school church all of it, so i did a re-evaluation of my life as i see it
and just looking at things ya im doing better but really my heart hasnt been in alot of what ive been doing for a while so im going back into life fighting , i had gotten to a point where i wasnt reading my scriptures as much as i should be so i fixed that, i hadnt been running very seriously so i wrote out a plan for myself and im following through with it so that i can kick some major but this coming season. and with school i already kinda knew i wasnt on the total right track so i had already been veering back into the right and doing better now im pushing myself even harder.
and then with my other aspects of life ive been driving some even if my mom wont let me drive with her yet and that has been kinda fun
one of the big things that i want to change is the fact that i havent rlly been doing things with my friends for quite a while, shool and running have kinda taken over my life and consumed everything else.
lets hope im in good enough shape in 12 days

after that im free
this past like forever and a year i have been going a little stressed out crazy and now that all my tests and stuff are over i can relax a bit more and just do a little more of what i want i have to start getting up better so i can drive to seminary if im slow i wont get to be the one behind the wheel =(

Life
well school is now just about halfway over and i figured it all out well enough i made it
and friends have shifted postions and other various things but in the end its all going pretty good
im about to jump into stress headfirst but whatever you can only do so much, i am planning on tackling -The permit test
-the compass test
-finals
-keeping my regular life in order
-running my but off with whats going on
-figureing everything out
so im purely terrified to be frankly honest that i will screw up on any number of those things so if i seem a little off that is me trying to cope through the week if im seeming close to normal i probably ran recently so i guess i will update when all thats over
