3 in the morning to Hidden Valley. 7 mile workout in the afternoon (2 mile warm up to Webb Hill, 6x2:00 hill repeats w/recovery jog, cool down back to school). Good workout for me today, shins hurting pretty bad though.

3 miles in the morning to the bridge. 6 miles easy in the afternoon out past Hidden Valley. Shins felt a little better today, good thing too with Footlocker in less than 2 weeks! Way excited to go, just hoping my shins are good by then.

No running today because I slept in then went and played basketball with my family and couldn't get a run in for the rest of the day. Kind of mad that I slept in, not running just doesn't feel right.

I was supposed to do 5 easy miles this morning but ended up doing 11. Yes, 11. Allow me to explain. So Darian told me that she had to do 11 miles today and I was just going to run with her for the first 2.5 then turn around. But then my dad said to my sister, "So you're just going to be running by yourself for the next 8.5 miles after he turns around?" to which my sister replied, "Well I guess Kale could run 11 miles with me." Normally I would have said NO WAY to this, but because I didn't get a run in yesterday I felt sort of obligated to. It was an okay run, we ran 4 miles over to Bloomington, did the 3 mile Bloomington loop, then came back, it was pretty nice outside this morning. I used my compression sleeves for the first time today and I didn't see a huge difference. My legs weren't hurting too bad though which was good. At the end of our run, Darian said, "My legs are pretty sore, I've never run this far before." Confused, I said, "Wait, you've never gone 11 miles before? Why do you have to do it now a week away from your first indoor race?" She replied, "Oh I don't have to do this, I just wanted to get some fun mileage in." At this point you could say that I was pretty angry with my sister. "So you mean to tell me, you could've run 5 easy miles with me today instead????????" ".......Yep." I guess it wasn't that bad of a run, but I wouldn't necessarily call it 'fun', and I really wish she would've told me I didn't have to run 11 miles before I did it.

Drove over to Desert Hills today to do my 6 mile run on the trails behind the school. Ran alone because my sister is a brat and wouldn't run 6 easy miles with me even after I ran 11 with her yesterday. What a punk.
