So today there was a track meet that I was not running at. I figured those who were not running still had practice but when I entered the locker room and could hear my own foot steps I knew there was something not right. I still don't know if I was supposed to go with the rest of the team but I decided to hold my own practice anyways. It was really cool being the only one on the track. I ran 4 400's and 3 100's. I hadn't planned on running the 100's but decided during my cool lap down that I wanted to run as fast as I could just for fun. I am always running for the sake of track but not for myself so much. I am telling you there is something so liberating about running as fast as you can with no one watching that is good for the soul. Even though I was tired I wanted to do it again because it felt good; so I ended up running 2 more before concluding practice very satisfied and tired.
