Sunday May 11
	Running 2:27 [3] 0.38 mi (6:31 / mi)
	slept:8.0 shoes: Asics
	Personal best loop at the Bresemans. I was following Anna. I also set some controls and picked up some other ones at the NWFF practice meet, but I decided not to run the course since I already knew where most of the controls were, and I was going to be running later.
	Running (track) 11:45 [3] 1.97 mi (5:57 / mi)
	shoes: Asics 2
	550 m warm up 3 x Broken 500, rest 1 minute, run 200 (300s in 0:56, 0:54, 0:55; 200s in 0:34, 0:34, 0:35, 0:35, 0:36, 0:35) 500 m cool down I really prefer running track workouts with other people.

	slept:9.5
	Mile race at Metros! I got an 8 second PR with 5:24.64 (I think the hundredths are correct). I was 6th so I qualified for districts (though I'm scratching this so I'll be able to better run the 800 and 4x400). As of about 150 m left, I was about 3 places out of qualifying (top 7 qualify), so I passed several people at the end. The top runners started slowly because I think they were trying to play weird mind games, and I got boxed in at the beginning, but it turned out well with about an 80 second first lap which is what I was hoping for. I ran pretty even splits for the rest of the race as well. I'm really happy with this race, especially since I've never before qualified for districts in the mile.
	Running (track race) 2:24 [5] 0.5 mi (4:48 / mi)

	800 m metro finals. I was 7th, so I qualified, and my time was slightly slower than Wednesday, but I raced only about an hour after the mile so I was still tired from that. I'm going to race this again next Wednesday, and hopefully get another PR, but I'm happy with my improvement in the 800 this season.
	Running (track race) 1:04 [5] 0.25 mi (4:15 / mi)

	I was the third leg of the 4x400. My legs were exhausted by this point.
	Running 50:00 [3]

	warming up and cooling down x 3
	Note

	And Lakeside girls are the 2008 METRO LEAGUE CHAMPS! I knew we got a bunch of points from distance, hurdles, and a few field events, but I had no idea we were going to win the team title. This never happens with Lakeside track since we always have such a small team. I'm so happy!!!!! This is such a great way to end my track career!

	C • Woot! 3

Wednesday May 7
	Running (track race) 2:23 [5] 0.5 mi (4:46 / mi)
	slept:8.5
	800 m metro prelims. I ran it in 2:23.4, which was amazing because it's a PR by about 3 seconds. I was 3rd in my heat and 5th overall, so I qualified for finals on Friday. My first lap was 66-67, and I was so tired for the entire second lap, but there was someone who tried to pass me, though I was able to pass her again at the end, and that kept me motivated. It's races like this that make me glad I do track. My goal for this season was to get a PR in both the 800 and mile and I'm halfway to that, so I'm happy. :-)

	C • Woo-hoo! 6
	Running 35:00 [3]

	long warm-up including striders and accelerations a short cool-down after the race
Tuesday May 6
	Running 12:30 [3] 1.6 mi (7:48 / mi)
	shoes: Asics 2
	long discussion about race strategy 2 x run curves, jog straights 200 m in 30 sec 1 x run curves, jog straights 1200 m cool-down hand-off practice (iced)
	Note
	slept:8.5
	I'm scratched from the 400 because my coaches (well, Asha and Sally) thought that would be better since it's so close to the 800, though I kind of wish I could run a 400 with competition (last meet, I was in a heat only with one other really slow girl). And the 800 is at 6:25 tomorrow. On Friday, the mile is at 4:30, the 800 (if I qualify for finals) is at 5:25, and the 4x400 is at 6:20. That'll be tiring if I qualify for the 800 so I have to run all three.

	C • Godspeed. 4
