:) that was the best assembly period ever! so i went to english class in sweats, and as soon as the bell rang, I tied my running shoes and dashed out the door before tom or karen could corral students toward the forum for the assembly. i was at AU 15 minutes later, doing drills on the glowing, sunlit track while watching the AU mens soccer team practice. after all the moving drills, i took off my jacket, did 4 striders, and then did a lap of sprint the straights and jog the curves. feeling warm but a little heavy, i took off my sweatpants and jogged to the 300 start line. i raised my hand, clicked my watch, and i was like on fire. i didn't even run that fast, but it felt amazing. i had sort of been mentally targeting 63s, but i hardly checked my watch. ran 63.30, 64.30, 64.53, 62,30. it was amazing! the 100 recovery never really felt like enough, but as soon as I started the next one i forgot about being tired. i gathered strength from the lonely old woman jogger doing laps, and my fellow atheletes - the soccer players - who were working hard too. It was so easy to feel fast! I rounded the curve and the last 100 of each one just disappeared. then i jogged back, stretched, and casually changed in the bathroom. :) not your typical school day - SO MUCH BETTER!!!!!!
