Keep Calm and Run On

A.M. I ran a workout on the alter g. My ankle felt pretty good today so I just ran at 100% and was fine the whole time. I did 2 mile warm up then ran 4x1 mile with 5 minutes recovery between. I ran 5:25 and it felt pretty good. It is much easier to do repeats on a treadmill where the pace is set. All I have to do is stay on my feet and not worry about trying to run fast enough. I was really tired after but happy to get through 4. I finished for 9 miles then biked 30 minutes. 

P.M. I ran 4 miles outside. Ankle was great. I am dead tired and my legs were like jello. 

A.M. Ran 7.5 outside and biked 30 minutes.

P.M. ran 4.5 more. My legs feel awful. 

I got to run outside with the team today! We ran 3x400 at the intramural fields at 78. Really short workout. 

Still feel pretty bad. I have iced my ankle every day and keep it wrapped. My legs are just dead. Did normatec and ice bath for 20 minute. 

Ran the course in Spokane. It is a loopy course on grass fields. It is beautiful up here! 

To say today was discouraging and disappointing would be an understatement. It sucked. 

My ankle was fine- taped well and didn't bother me. It was rainy and we were excited to race. But we all had a really off day. I felt beat. Dead tired and was struggling to keep up. I felt drained and barely hanging on. We were able to pack up second half but were wayyyy too far back. We closed in well and I could not have finished strong without them. I was really struggling. We finished tight and tied with Gonzaga at 59 points. We lost in the tie breaker because of the college tie breaker rule (they had 3 ahead of our 3. If it had been dependent on 6th runner, we had them.) I was really sad and discouraged. Ran miles at the course then some more at the hotel.
