Wow. I truly have a new found respect for runners. I can't believe that people do that... This morning we (as in the crew team) went for a FOUR MILE RUN. yeah. It was interesting. I've never done anything like that before. I mean, sure I went for runs over the summer, but not like that. I thought that was never going to end!! But I ran practically the whole time. There were points when my calves were like, "UM. NO." and I had to power walk, but it was a really short time.... I felt bad because I ended up walking. And I was last to come in.. well, the one girl behind me hurt her ankle, so yeah. The other girls that I thought would go at my pace either left early, or didn't show up. Yeah. That was interesting. meh. Their loss. I feel great because I accomplished so much. I've NEVER done that, and I finished, and I'm alive. OH WAIT. Did I mention this?! IT WAS RAINING. For parts it was pouring, other times it was lighter. Yeah. And it's in the mid 40's. It's a little chilly. But like I said, I MADE IT THROUGH ALIVE.
Speaking of pouring rain... It was pouring like this yesterday. At about 4. When I have practice. Yeah. Practice pretty much SUCKED. A lot. I was soaked to the core. All my stuff is still wet. It's nuts. So WET. And I thought, oh, this run... not too bad (thinking it wasn't going to be raining...) yeah. so much for that.
I'm quite accomplished. No one else can say that they did exactly what I did. And that's a great ego boost after the crappy morning. :D
