Personal:

I started running while I was in 8th grade for Jr. High track, and then I joined the Syracuse High Cross Country team as a Sophomore and I have ran almost every day since then except on Sundays. I got patella femoral pain syndrome after my sophomore year of Cross Country and I was injured on and off until my senior year. I am now about to finish up my senior year of Track.

I haven't ran really in five days, but on Monday we ran to the church for some ultimate frisbe! I'd count that as two miles. I thought my legs would feel great since I haven't been running but they are super sore and are really hindering my speed! I went four miles today and my knee's were bothering me the whole time even with the stretching. I have to do my physical therapy stretches twice a day or I will keep on being sore. I just have to get down to the nitty gritty and commit myself. Only Way to get totally injury free. I did hurdles after my run to get ready for the decathalon. I was actually doing pretty dang good and with the hurdle drills it really helped my sore and tight legs. I was one notch lower than the boys hurdle and it felt good when I jumped over them. I have to work on not hesitating before I jump because it really slows down your time. If I want to medal I have to do my best on the running ones because that is where I will get most of my points. I raised it to the boys height and didn't do as well but it wasn't terrible, after I banged my trail foot's knee on the hurdle I was done after that. I am going to work on discus, high jump, 100m dash, and pole vault next time on Monday. Excited to watch State and support my TEAM.
