| Dad and I went out to run an old Blue Hills Traverse course. It seems so much longer when you are not racing!! We were just moving along, and we probably did just over half the course. IT felt like forever, but when I'm actually racing it, it doesn't seem so bad. |

| My heal hurt all day today, and I'm worried I caught the disease. Was going to do speed work with dad, but instead went to the library to write this paper that will seriously never end. |

| A trail run with dad and Zan (yay!!) in the Blue Hills. It was quite hot and we were all glad we were carrying our own supply of gookinaid. |

| An easy run around Newton after class got out at 7:00. At 8:08 it was light enough to see fine on the trails, but at 8:13 it was getting to be dark. |

| As I was stretching in the backyard a cat walked by and said hello. Then I remembered seeing lost cat posters when I was out running. So I took off around the block in search of the poster to see if the same cat just passed me in the backyard. Sadly, it wasn't the same cat. |

| Orienteering 16:58 [4] | |

| Sprint at Fresh Pond. Legs were really tired and had no speed. Also felt a biy queasy. I thought I was doing alright, until I missed 12, reading the contours wrong and not looking at my compass. I had passed dad at #2, but he punched #12 before me. |
| trail run 7:00 [1] | |
| |
| jogging around before the start of the sprint |

| |
| No running today in an attempt to come close to finishing my paper... I also found out that for my two intersession classes I have class M-Th the next two weeks from 4-8 each night.... so yeah, this should be interesting for my training and sanity. |

| |
| Long day of Team trials. This went MUCh better than yesterday. I slowed way down and took safe routes. I jogged/walked the more difficult controls and still got a bit confused in places, but was able to correct quickly. Never felt like I was running hard or really pushing physically, but was mentally very focused. |
