AM- Two miles in the morning to loosen up for the race in the afternoon. Nice and cool. PM. RACE TIME!!! It was my first time using xc spikes and they HURT! Maybe I need to practice a little with them to know what to do right. The race was hot and my mouth was crazy dry, making my throat hurt like crazy! There was the woods cross girl in front of me and whenever I pushed up to her, she'd sprint. Finally I was keeping up with her for a while and what did she do? She elbowed me! Right after her devil crime, she swerved in front of me so I still couldn't pass her. But oh wait! She elbowed my stomach and I puked on her! Oh and beat her at the end :) WHAT NOW?!?!? Now people know never to elbow me in the stomach when I'm feeling that sick! I got my best time yet, but it wasn't as good as I wanted. Now I'm gonna be stepping it up majorly and it getting colder is going to help a ton! I'm still maintaining that spot on varsity and I plan on keeping it. Our girls team got third and boys I think got first or third, I can't remember. Oh, I did a two mile warm up and a one mile cool down in socks. Nice after a race and out of spikes. I really need to get used to those...They gave me blisters and my shorts gave me cuts. What kind of shorts do that?
