6 Days LEFT!!!!!/ and the rest of the story

Friday's Run:
2 miles
Time: don't know, but it didn't hurt!!! I'm still very tight, but no pain.

Saturday:
8 miles- again tight, but no pain.

THE REST OF THE STORY...

So lets go back to the glory days.... just kidding.

I crossed that finish line alright. (you'll need to read the post before this for this to make sense)

First two go to state.

I was third.

The same happened with the mile relay that I ran in.

It was a bitter-sweet experience.

I finally found out how to run a 400 M dash successfully, and I ran it in 62 seconds.

I later learned that many runners at State ran it in that time, and the girls I raced against were medalist in State. Just my luck, eh.

But like I said in earlier posts, it was a win in my book, I beat my own time.

However, I was determined to make it to state next year. I felt it was a legitimate goal since I was already so close.

But I had no idea what was to come, something I never saw coming. For me, it was the first I had something I couldn't reach that was once within reach.

My Sophomore year changed me A LOT, redirected my life in a large way.

Many of those experiences too personal to share, but I will share bits and pieces tomorrow.

until then.....


Here's my little running partner
I was running one day, and I looked down and this is what I saw, or pretty close to it (since I don't run with a camera):
