| jog/walk warm up to the start. Thought i was going to miss my start though, but actually got up there perfect timing. Turned out though that i had taped up the wrong control descriptions. I tapped up green x instead of green y. ops! |

| Middle distance at West Point. Over all had a pretty good run. However was very close to doing a 180 out of the start. and i messed up #3 pretty badly, the power lines not being map really threw me off!!! oh and also had some problems with #5. i'm sure there were more places i messed up but don't have my map in front of me so i'll have to add those later. Oh fell down a cliff between #9 and 10 and got dirt up my middle finger nail which really hurt. So now that has been tapped up a few times which makes typing a little bit hard.
came in 5th out of all the women running green, so that was exciting!!! |

| Stretched a little bit before the sprint. My back hurt quite a bit, i think from sliding down hills and such. finally had stopped raining by that time. |
| orienteering race (West Point- sprint) 20:01 [4]*** 2.5 km (8:00 / km) +60m 7:09 / km | |

| Ran the middle sprint in the afternoon. Did pretty good. Came out of #2 the wrong way and had to slow down to #11 because at first i thought i was going to #10 and things weren't making sense. Other than that the course was pretty good just couldn't run as fast as i wanted to in parts. Also i probably would have taken a few seconds off my run if i hadn't slowed down into the finish to do a cartwheel before punching the finish box. Yeah all the juniors thought it would be cool if someone did a cartwheel into the finish just like someone did during the Relay champs a few weeks ago. So everyone else didn't do it and i was the last person out so i did the cartwheel, and Jan even got a photo of it! |

| Ran up to the Viking and back with my coach on his bike. Nice kinda easy pace, could talk the whole time. It was nice not having to run on my own, and it was nice to talk to my coach a bit. We talked mostly about biochem class and colleges. Oh and he explained the last part of our lab from the other day to me because i missed the explanation yesterday, so that was nice. Nice temperature for a run as well. Nose isn't feeling too well though, might have picked up a cold from wednesday's track meet? |

| i had to go pick up a flash drive down town that i had forgotten to take out of the computer i was presenting on earlier today. So since we were going to have an easy run anyway to recover from my race, we decided to just run down town so i could pick it up and than run back. My coaches boyfriend was very cool! he is working on solar energy so that was exciting, plus he told me what his strategy was in high when he ran the two mile.
Over all an ok run, shins hurt a bit at the end though. |

| Qualifying race for the district championships. First like real meet of the season as it was the first time i actually had other fast girls to run against. Was a really hard race!!! the whole back stretch and second corner you were running into some pretty strong wind. I had a hard time sticking up with the leading pack but i never got lapped so that is ok, i thought i was going to get lapped by the winner when i saw her time on the sheet. Had i think a great kick at the end really started picking it up on the last lap and actually managed to chase down one girl. Sadly didn't beat the two masterman girls in order to qualify for States but i wasn't too far behind one of them. Also i have another chance in two weeks to qualify if i really really want to for states so we will see.
was supposed to run the 1600m as well but scratched that because i was so beat and my knee was bugging me a little bit, plus west point this weekend and i want to have really good runs there. |

| Easy run to loosen up my legs for tomorrows race. Shins hurt, ok actually my whole legs hurt. I hope legs feels better tomorrow!!!
I'm the only one who qualified for this race from my team so i'm going all alone. Getting a bit nervous. Also they switched around the order so the 3200m is first not used to that! I hope i do ok... |
