AM- Today we did a new workout called 1/1 which is just like 30/30s but just double the hit time and distance. I made it all the way to 15 which is the most anybody got because coach stopped us for kid's club. I felt super good today! It felt easier than the 30/30s, but it was still a nice hard push. 1 mile warm .5 mile cool. (half a mile barefoot warmup).

PM- I know for a fact that this was 3.1 miles. I calculated it yesterday with a GPS watch. Yesterday I hit it in 23:35. That for sure is a promise. I say this because none of you are going to believe what I did and I just about hate/love myself for it. I went out on a run purely because I was angry. I didn't even think I was going to do a PM run today. I don't want to say exactly why I was angry, but I was furious. I've calmed down now, but it was bad. So I went out of my grandma's house with my watch and started running. I decided to do the same route as I did yesterday. The exact same route. My watch was running the whole time. The thing that was so shocking about this 3.1 MILE RUN, was that I ran it in 17:58. That is more than a 1:30 PR and this wasn't even a race. I confirm that this was a 3 mile run if not more! I got to the halfway point at like a 9 minute and I decided that I was just gonna kill it. I didn't care what anyone would say. So I started going. I think I was in the zone. I felt amazing during the whole thing. I felt like I was on top of the world. I don't know what the heck happened, but I was not expecting me to run any faster or stronger than I usually do. I don't know what I did different, but I sure dang hope I can run this good at the time trial tomorrow. Coach don't kill me.

Well if anger motivates you, get angry more often. Great job by the way.

Yeah it makes me feel like I've been holding something back that I've had this whole time!
