I had my first cross country meet yesterday. I was so proud of myself that I was able to run a 5k race, but the course was very difficult. We had to run about 2 miles through a field of corn with rolling hills, and it got very repetitive very fast. Oh, well...the first race is over with and I can do this season! My coach's saying is, "What you can ( Read more... )

Oh, and I was so happy. Evan, my crush, went away for the weekend, and guess who he called as soon as he came back?

It's a gorgeous day outside-the sun is so lovely, the temperature is just right, and the shade is wonderful because the leaves have opened their green leaves up to the sun. Cross country went really well. We ran about four miles today, and I ran with Naomi, who just came back from spending a year in Brazil, and Amanda. They are so funny. The run ( Read more... )

This week has been so busy. We have been working on a drill for "Taking It to the Streets" in band, and I ran about 20 miles in cross country this week. I'm starting to get conditioned.

Not fun. I had to miss cross country this morning, and my big project for the day is going to be ( Read more... )

Today was the second day of our cross country season. We practice at Tunnel Park, the beach near my house, and run up and down sanddunes and along the sidewalk. I ran about four miles today, and it didn't feel too bad. Maybe I can pull this off. I went to the park with my dog and my siblings, where we bumped into my cousin. I also have a doctor's ( Read more... )
