This morning we ran a loop to the track to check it out for Monday and then ran to Massie and down Emmett back to Memorial gym and did a side walk loop. It took us about 25 minutes and was a pretty good run.

This morning I decided to get creative and I mapped out a run using google maps. I combined the Law School loop we've been doing lately with a little bit from Lambeth to Rugby Road. It came out to be around 4 miles long. I ran it in 30:52 and felt great! I really enjoyed this run and am excited to keep trying out new ones!

Here's the route I ran this morning:

This morning warmed up to Lambeth and then we ran a fartlek 2.5 mile loop around the law school. My group did about 12 intervals and we ran the total loop in about 20 minutes.

Monday, September 24:

This morning we warmed up to the lawn and then ran 4 intervals on the lawn. We started at the brick pathway in the middle and then sprinted for 1:30 toward the statue of Homer and then back up the lawn. I was able to make it back to the hill right before the Rotunda steps by 1:30 every time. On the last interval, however, we had to run around the lawn because the rope guards were complaining. Then we ran a cool down down McCormick road and through the Quad back to Memorial gym and around Nameless field. I ended up running back to my dorm after class to add on a little extra mileage.

This morning we warmed up to Lambeth and then ran a new 2.5 mile loop behind JPJ past the law school. My group ran it in 21:35. I think this was my favorite run so far. When we got back to Memorial gym we ran 5 hills, which was a little scary because the grass was so wet and the hills were so steep!

Wednesday, September 19:

This morning we ran a warm-up loop around Nameless and then ran 4 out-and-backs. This time we went the reverse way around Nameless field, so we took a left out of Memorial gym. We ran out 1:30 and I was able to make it to the same place I turned around last time going the opposite direction, which I thought was pretty cool. I did much better pacing myself this time because I made it back at 2:56 every time so I hit "bingo" all 4 times today.

Running on only 3 hours of sleep last night, this morning's run was actually really good. We warmed up to Lambeth and then ran 2 miles in 17:43. After the run we went back in the gym and did regular planks, forward-and-back planks, right and left side planks, and right and left side dip planks. I also had field hockey practice tonight.

Friday, September 14:

Today we did out and backs. We ran 1:30 out around Nameless field and then back to Memorial gym. Each time I made it to the last streetlight on Emmett and I made it back in 1:30 or less 3 out of the 4 times. I missed the first time because my pace on the way back was slower and I didn't realized I had slowed down.

Wednesday, September 12:

This morning we did our warm-up run to Lambeth, stretched, and then ran a 2.5 mile loop around grounds. I think this loop was my favorite so far. My group ran it in 20:45 so we were around a solid 8 minute mile pace. It felt really good!

Monday, September 10:

Today we ran a 2 mile fartlek around grounds. My group ran it in 17:47 and got 8 intervals in. Tonight I had my first official club field hockey practice, which was fun! I can't wait or this season!

Friday, September 7:

This morning we ran to the lawn as our warm-up and then ran interval sprints down the lawn. My sprints to the statue were all around 56 seconds, with about 1:13 to jog back. I thought this was a really good workout! After class I ran back to my dorm which took me 6:58. So much faster than actually walking back...haha.

Wednesday, September 5:

This morning we ran a 2 mile loop around grounds and my group added on a lap around nameless. We ran it in 20:08 and it felt like our best run yet! I also had the last of the club field hockey tryouts tonight and we did some fitness and small scrimmages. I just got the email saying I made the team so now I am SUPER excited!

Tuesday, September 4:

Tonight I had field hockey tryouts from 8:45-10:45pm. They went pretty well. It rained most of the time which made it cooler. My calves are going to be sore tomorrow.

Monday, September 3:

This morning we ran a loop down Mccormick and around the lawn that was about 1.5 miles and then my group added the nameless field loop also. It took us 15:12 and it felt really good. Afterwards we did drills in the grass. Then tonight I had my first club field hockey tryout from 7-8:30pm at Carr's field. It think it went pretty well, I'm excited for the rest of the week now!
