Event: US Sprint & UltraLong champs
 

soooo... epic race until everything went kablooey at control 16. well actually i guess it was 14 when things really started going down the drain. i ended up trying to cut through the woods instead of trail running, but because of all of the green i just got pushed back out to the trail anyways. wasted a bunch of time there... and then 16 i just couldn't find the control even though i was in the circle. other than that though it was a great race and i felt very in control.

the legs felt super dee duper snailish and even when i pleaded for them to go faster... they just didn't. all of my navigating was quite clean though and my route choices were solid. the woods were also soo much fun to run through cause it was all open and wonderfullness!! :)

yogalates!!

it started out as a good hillworkout until i got covered in burrs and nearly attacked by a dog.

in weightfit before running.

running along with zindzi cause she needed a little moral support.

did... legs... and... ermm triceps... and military press!

i thought that i would feel horrible today since it's still tiring just going up a flight of stairs and i have a cold. it did however go just fine and my times are kinda consistent. we did 2 x 1 loop, 2 loops, 3 loops... and there's a hill for an entire block.
