It's a RUNderful life

Pre-meet today. Strides, and then two 400s. First one a little fast, second a little slow.#ugh  after did starts and finished mileage. Everything was a little rough without "watchson" :(

Raced at the David Invite today. First of all, the weather was no bueno. I ran the mile first so that was obviously the goal race, but in the end it turned out to not be so good... At all. I guess I was just not in it mentally even though I know I was there physically. So I vowed to redeem myself in the 4x800. I feel like I actually did do decently in the 800 even though I was a little tuckered out. I was the first leg which is my fave so that was good.... In other news, it's #nationalroastwatsonday so that sucks. So ya know, UNshoutout to Sami and Gan. But for realz good job to all the chicas that raced hard today <3

Went to the Salt Lake temple to do baptisms with Gan, Sami, and Guppy (which was the coolest ever), and then we headed up to the Davis meet to watch the boys race. Just got our mileage done up there inbetween races and stuff. Dang it was chilly. Shoutout to all the boys for being so speedy and big shoutout to Riley for a huge PR! Only down side of today was that I didn't exactly tell my mother I was going all the way up to Davis and that may have resulted in a punishment that includes me spending the weekend at a Deacon scout campout...

Good high mileage run with Guppy. Legs kinda tired but whateverrrr. We did a weird random loop out by Willowcreekish and then to state street and up to the cemetary and then back to the school.

Had a pretty good speed workout today. 6x400m at mile pace with 2.5 min rest inbetween and then 3x200m all out. Pacing was pretty inconsistent which is never the greatest, but I was feeling good. Those last 200s were extra hard, but I was happy with how I did and hopefully I can turn that into a better kick. Used the patented "Watson Power Push and Glide" method on the 400s which I highly recommend (see me for details). After the workout Gan, Sami, and I finished out mileage out towards the lake. Extra special shoutout to the nice elementary crossing guard who gave us Easter gummy bunnies! Can't say that I ate mine, but it's totally the thought that counts and it definitely brightened my day :)

Weird run with an Easter egg hunt in the middle.
