Hahaha! I am just simply going to laugh about this, because it was simply just a joke! Our bus arrived at the school not long before the girls fast heat started, I was in the bathroom when Taylor Abel told me I only had 10 minutes before our race started...thanks Abel (if he didn't tell me I probably would have missed my race. However I probably wouldn't have minded today though.) I got out, grabbed my sticker put my shoes on (feeling sick as well) and started the race, and that was basically it. I was super upset and negative about it at this point, and did not want to run. But I didn't want to let Coach down so I did anyway, and sucked. Afterwards my Dad told me we had to leave immediately to Salt Lake for General Conference. So I was only allowed to do a half mile cooldown. This was kind of a sucky day. Coach was worried that I did so terribly because I am overtraining so he told me I should take 2-3 days completely off of running. In my opinion I am not really training THAT hard, and it was just the poor conditions that caused the sub par race. However, I will not ignore my coaches advice. I can't not train Saturday because I am going up north for conference, but also to work with Sean on some racing/training stuff. So I figured I would take Sunday off (obviously) and Monday just go very, very easy.
