ran in the school, so I'm not sure how far it actually was. We would run really fast down a few halls, stop in the commons, do some core, and then take off on a different route. I think the average pace was probably close to 5:00, we were going pretty fast. For core we did 35 push-ups, 25 sit ups, 50 squats, holding every fifth one for 5 seconds, 45 second plank, 30 second side planks, and 30 tricep dips. We did not do burpees. Burpees suck.

1x1200m, (4:15) then 10x190m (30ish splits) the 200's had two short, steep hills, and one tight u-turn around a tree, so they caused some pain. My thighs were already pretty dead, I took the stairs in the school a bit too hard yesterday. The sharp turns made my ankles hurt. The hills really burnt. It was cold and I had a hard time breathing. It was a great workout!

First thing's first: it was 25 degrees this morning. The sun was out, so it wasn't as bad as it was last year (last year sucked), but it was still pretty frigid. I came to win. Then my life flashed before my eyes. I hadn't expected Kenny to show up. But he did. This meant I would actually have to compete. Oh well. Splits were 5:47, 5:45, and 5:53. I hate the Aggie course. There are too many U-turns. I went out hard, and stayed in front basically the whole time. Time wasn't quite what I would have liked, but it was cold. Not a bad start to Thanksgiving day.
