Comments:
I don't know what I did wrong today. But I really can't think of too many worse runs that I've been on besides this one today.

Everything felt fine except for the heat and just how exhausted I was.

It was terrible to run down Pine on that crooked shoulder with absolutley no shade. My eyes were searching for any kind of shade the whole way back from Fuller, but there wasn't even a tiny bit. My body kept telling me to stop but I didn't listen. Because it's not like it would have helped me any. And even if I did there would be nowhere shady to sit and it would just take longer to get back to the school.

As I was running through the parking lot I fell behind Julie, Rachael and Meghan. I stopped and my eyes were watering and my nose was running and everything was blurry. I was getting dizzy and my knees were bending. So I just sat down. And my breathing was like..crooked it was weird.

Anyways, it's just so frustrating. Because I thought today would go better. I mean, I've been on way tougher courses and I've been in worse heat than this. And it was an easy day. It's not like it was some tough kid run. So I don't know what went wrong. I wasn't even working that hard.

I didn't want to miss the strides either. I don't want to fall behind.
