It’s not even 11:30 and I’ve already:
-done half my english homework
-gone on a run in the rain (4.53 miles)
-core
-showered and washed my hair
-come up with an idea for my english project
Now my plans for the day:
-have a huge breakfast
-bake black bean brownies (omg so excited)
-finish my homework
-go to the library and get a book
-maybe start working on my project
Personal reminder: last night I had a ridiculously large amount of froyo. And guess what? I didn’t gain weight or lose fitness overnight. Because that’s just not how these things work.
So my day was long long long. Got up at 6:00 and am only now going to sleep at midnight. Started off with an English AP which I honestly think I did pretty well on—hopefully that gets me out of college writing haha, we’ll find out in July. And then I left school early for a track meet—league championships woot! I was one and done today—just the mile and no other races, so I could really give it my all.
I got a hip number though!! My first one! All the other girls have loads from track seasons/xc, and since it’s my first year I’ve never had any, but I finally got one I can stick on my wall woot! I was seeded 5th, but really it was 7th because two top girls didn’t hand in their cards and were put in the last two places. I PR’d and hit my goal from last week: 5:38! I’m SO happy to see the 30’s, and hoping in my last two meets to keep it in the 30’s. I ran a really crappy race style though—I had no idea who to stick with and my pacing was so off. I ended up coming in 6th (and usually top 6 medal, but today it was top 5, bleh). But my middle two laps I ran in 90 and 89 which is ridiculously slow and something I cannot afford. Yet this was the first race that I finished where I was physically unable to stay standing—I truly gave my last lap 1000%, and I’m really glad about that.
Anyways, we left the meet at 9:45ish, and I went to the diner with a couple track people to get dinner at like 10:30, wasn’t even that hungry, but it was nice to get out, and now I’m finally in bed omg sleeping so late tomorrow and then studying for the bio ap awyeah.
Overall a long, but satisfying day.
My pita just came and I feel like crying :’)
Whole wheat with spinach, lettuce, tomato, avocado, shredded carrots, and grilled chicken LET THE FEASTING BEGIN

Off to the high school to help at the shows—I’ll answer the questions in my inbox when I get back :)
Oh and this is what we were doing in the limo ride there. Of course :P
Posting my first picture from my new laptop aww.
Okay now I’m going to go run I promise.
Woot woot day-before-prom hard day! 10 minute warmup, 8x400, 10 minute cooldown, 8 minute ab circuit, random 20 push-ups thrown in there :P
I’ll be spending the rest of my day rehydrating like crazy.
Me in the 4x800 yesterday. I pull such faces when I race haha.
