1 Mile warm up, with a 800 race. I think I got around a 2:35/36. But I'm not positive! It was a PR though. Felt pretty good, maybe I can pick up my first lap a little bit more. I felt like I really did push the first lap pretty hard, and then just got everything out the 2nd lap. But I wasn't puking, so I can go faster. I just gotta figure out where if i wanna start doing 800's.

1 Mile warm up with a 400 race. I got a 1:06.88. So a PR by about .12. But hey, it's still a PR!(: Did a little cool-down, and then after I got home I ran about 2 more miles to completely relax. I felt alright about this race. I really think I did push as hard as I could, I just don't have enough speed in me. The last 100 meters I got pretty dizzy and started blacking out. Especially after I finished my head was pounding really hard and I kept having black outs. So I'll focus on hydration, but other than that I gave everything into that race.

1.5 warm and cool with a 600, 400, 300, 200, and 100. I thought we were supposed to be hitting around race pace, so my 600 was a 2:05, and it was supposed to be around 2:30...the 400 was a 1:29, about dead on what we wanted to get, the 300 I got a :57, and I think it was about 5 seconds too fast or something, and then the 200 I got a :40, and the 100 was a :14. We either hit our times or faster, so it was a fun/good day!

Track Meet today! I raced two 400's, a 100, and a 800. With both of the 400's I got a 1:07, and I feel like I really pushed those. The 800 I could have done a lot better with my first lap, and then I just went all out with the second lap. Ended up getting a 2:46 ish...? So really not very good. and then the 100 was just whatever. Sprinted it, but my sprint compared to others isn't the greatest. Over all it was a pretty fun track meet though!

1.5 Mile warm and cool with 4 thousands and 2 300's. I didn't hit my best times, but I felt like I was pushing pretty hard through them. I got like a 4:09, 4:20 (i don't know what happened there), a 4:10, and then 4:11. I think one of my problems was just that i was dehydrated. For a few of them I felt like I was gonna hit the ground after I finished, but i didn't! 300's were pretty good though. I got a good push in, and finished with like a 1:01 for the first one, then a :54 for the second one. Which may not seem like the greatest, but after that work out I felt like I had just conquered the world.
