Hard run. I ran at about 4:30, and it was very hot outside. It was two miles, and I was okay when I got back, so with some good training, I think I'll be able to run a 5K pretty easily.

Today was a very hard run down the back road. It was windy, and definitely not hot out, but I think it may be the hardest run I've done so far. I did get a very good sprint in at the end, but afterwards I was absolutely pooped.

This was a hard run. Probably because I haven't run since school started, and it was a little bit hot. My time wasn't so great either. I had 15 minutes for 1.3 miles, but two minutes of that was probably walking or stopping, so overall I think I had about 9:40 mile pace. My PR for mile is 7:45, but that was before I really ran, so I can definitely improve by the time Cross Country practice starts in the summer, and absolutely by the time the season starts next fall. Really excited to start XC!
