| Strength 8:00 [3] | ||
| slept:8.0 | ||
| planks: front-side-front-side-front 1:00 each
wall-sits: 3 x 1:00 This makes up for not doing abs/planks/other strength stuff yesterday since practice was canceled. I did my envi sci reading to distract myself during these. | ||

| Track practice was cancelled today because IT WAS SNOWING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which is really weird for Seattle in the end of March, but still exciting. So, I spent the time meandering through rummage instead, though I didn't buy anything. Maybe I'll get something tomorrow. | ||

| I was planning on running in the meet today, but I saw my coach this morning at school, he asked how I was doing, I said about the same as before, and he suggested going home and sleeping instead of going to the meet. I was kind of hesitant to do that since I missed track all of last week, so I called my dad (a doctor) and talked with him, and he made a couple good points. One, if I'm in a race, I'm going to have a hard time not going all out (especially in a relay) since that's the way I am, and two, since we don't know exactly what I have or why I'm having problems with coughing and breathing while running, I really shouldn't be pushing it and racing. So, I ended up coming home after school instead of going to the meet since I have a lot of homework and I was feeling pretty tired today, so I figured that would be smarter than going and standing out in the cold for 4 hours cheering for people. | ||

Wednesday Mar 26 | ||
| Running (track) 4:30 [3] 0.59 mi (7:37 / mi) | ||
| slept:8.5 shoes: Asics 2 | ||
| stop-sign and back x 2 (logged separately)
2 x 150 (first one at 26 sec - the pace for a 2:20 800, the second was at 28 sec) 650 m cool-down During the second 150, i actually just couldn't really breathe at the end, and i stopped and my breathing was so shallow; i just couldn't take deep breaths. This is really annoying me because I'm feeling fine in everything except running when I just feel really congested (well, that's true the rest of the time as well, it just doesn't bother me) and can't breathe well (and it doesn't help that my left ear still feels like it's plugged so I can't really hear out of it). And of course I'm still coughing a lot any time I stop running. So, I'm signed up for the mile tomorrow (and the 4x400 of course), but I don't think I can actually race either one all out. I don't know what I'm going to do. | ||
| Running (distance) 17:20 [3] 2.0 mi (8:39 / mi) | ||
| shoes: Asics 2 | ||
| Running down to the stop sign at 155th and back twice. I was more out of breath than I should have been (especially on the up-hills), but it wasn't that bad. | ||
| Strength 5:25 [3] | ||
| Planks. While I was out sick, they worked their way up from 40-45 seconds per side to 1:05 for each of the 5 parts (front or sides). | ||

Tuesday Mar 25 | ||
| Running (distance) 41:00 [3] 4.2 mi (9:45 / mi) | ||
| slept:9.0 shoes: Asics 2 | ||
| The distance team skipped part of the warm-up and started our workout by running to Shoreline Community College and back. I was breathing more heavily than I should have been since it was a nice easy run, and I started coughing any time we stopped (lights), but it was all right. I skipped the track stuff afterwards because I just can't run fast right now without having trouble breathing. This is so frustrating to not be able to do the entire workouts, but there's no point in doing the speed stuff if I can't run fast, so it's more beneficial to get home early and get to sleep earlier. (Time includes the lights.) | ||
| Running (warm-up) 1:55 [3] 0.25 mi (7:40 / mi) | ||

Monday Mar 24 | ||
| Running 28:30 [3] 3.7 mi (7:41 / mi) | ||
| slept:8.0 shoes: Asics 2 | ||
| Since I'm feeling better, I decided I'd go to track (against my friends' good advice) since I hadn't run in a week and I was wondering how well I'd be able too. So I did almost 1/2 the workout slowly and my body was still so tired and i was having a hard time breathing for part of it, but I'm still really glad I got out running since I miss not running for over a week. And I got several miles in, so I'm happy. I'm thinking the meet this week just isn't going to go well.
1400 m warm-up form drills + striders 800 m warm-up including 4 striders 3 x 1200 (the first two were at 5:22 and the third one was at 5:37 since I was getting really out of breath. It's kind of depressing to run 1200 m slower in total time than my PR mile and still get tired.) | ||
