Running Accomplishments:

I have been running ever since my 7th grade year when I joined the junior high track team. When I made the move to High School I jumped right into XC and then to track. Had the opportunity to run at Nike Cross Regionals in Arizona with my team this last season. My PR's are: Mile- 4:54, 2 mile: 10:32, 800m: 2:13, 5K: 17:07, 400: 57 sec.

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

My goals for thie track season is to qualify for state in one of the three main distance events. I'm focusing on getting there for the mile with the rest of my team but would be happy with any that may come my way. 800m: 2:00, Mile: 4:26, 2 Mile: 10:05.

 

Long-Term Running Goals:

I would love to run in college after high school but if that doesn't pan out then my goal is to stay active with running, maybe get into running half or full marathons.

Personal:

Diabetic Asmatic. Found out I had type-1 diabetes right before my first year running XC for my high school. I had asthma as a kid and it went away and recently came back last track season, I didn't find out about it until this last XC season so my PR's aren't quite where I want the to be. Once I began treating my asthma my PR for the 5k dropped by a minute so I'm excited to see how that translates to this track season. Member of Team Pre, follow us @team_pre on instagram!

Total Distance

Another speed workout today. We warmed up and then ran a mile to the cemetery. We ran 4x200, 400, 200 up the gradual hill that we usually do whistle hills on. The 400 and the second 200 were short but running uphill made up for it. We did each of them at goal indoor mile pace. My plan was just to go fast and save some for the end. Around the end of the 3rd set I realized that I had too much energy so I turned it up a gear and got quicker for the last set. For the last set I was contending for the lead (with practically everyone else) and it felt great. On the final 200 I was able to beat everyone which doesn't mean anything but it was a good confidence boost. We were all really dead after that and had a nice slow cool down to get our miles to 8. I went to Jujitsu later that night and it helped to loosen up my legs which were really sore so I was very happy for that.
