Flashback! est. summer 07? Summer JO Relay: Jessica, Jaclyn, Yero, Wendy[Jaclyn diving. Me sitting] Me-backstroke Jaclyn-freestyle
Fyi, this is wendy again [=
The last time we trained was wednesday morning before school started. On wednesdays I have something called late days, where school starts at 8:25 instead of 7:45. Jaclyn came over to my house very early- 6:30 in the morning. It felt like night because the sky was pitch black, but she was brave e enough to bike over to my house. About a few weeks ago, I biked to Jaclyn's house, and it was scary to be all alone in the dark. We decided to run for 20 minutes straight, but we never timed it. Instead, we listened to around 6/7 songs and then we knew it was around a 20 minute run. We ran in a large circle because the street I live on extends for about a third/half of a mile, and so we ran in circles and completed two! That sounds short, but going from one end of the street to the other took foreevverrr. Because we managed to run the entire time, we considered it a milestone for our training =)
At school (every wednesday), we ran the mile again. I ran/walked/jogged the mile, and I made it in around 8:10? Less effort for this mile.
One of the races that we were considering was the Lakewood 5k Run/Walk to just train for the running part. I am thinking about doing the Los Alamitos Reverse Triathlon on the 21 of February. But, I dont want to make it official yet because I have to find a good time to ask my parents. I'm guessing they will say yes because they are already letting me train with Jaclyn. The only thing that is holding me back is how much it will cost :/ The triathlon race is actually pretty expensive, $60-$70 plus registration to be a triathlete $40 and equipment: $XX. Ouch.
I feel so prepped up to do the race, but I've been worrying about finals lately. They are coming up next week, so is a Model United Nations (MUN) conference.
Hey did I mention that pre-season swim may be starting? I definitely am excited for that, but if I do practice with my school, it will make scheduling workouts with Jaclyn much more difficult. One of my friends told me that I could join pre-season track [just to train of course], but I would be one of the slowest one there, and I don't want to make a fool of myself. Maybe one day *if it ever comes when I am ninja speed!
