First Cross-Country Meet

Well, today I went to my first cross-country meet. It was a little hard for me. I've been running for about a year now and yet, I came in last for everything. But I'm sure my competitors have been on the team before because they were pretty fast . I won't give up though. I'm passionate about running and I've gotten used to doing it often. And it's gotten into my schedule too.

The length around the track one time is about .66 miles. I'm not sure why, but running that distance the whole way seemed painful and long. I mean, its just under a mile, I should be able to do this, right? I'm going tomorrow and I'm going to run my own race and stop when I want to stop and run when I want to run and that should probably get me through a lap without feeling pain. 

The stretching and plyometrics aren't bad though. They're actually stimulating and relaxing, kind of like yoga. They are my great running release. After I do them, I don't feel as tired from the running . I will tell you guys more about my running journey after I go running next. Till then, bye :)

Keep Going
