Run, Sleep, Eat, Run!

Alot has happened these past couple of weeks that has really helped me in my life. We are still running 65 plus miles a week and school everyday is just fantastic. I ran at Texas Tech a few weeks back which I think was really good for me mentally because I went out fast on my first mile but I didn't let certain people get away from me. I feel like i'm in the best shape of my life and just need to see how far I can push my body now. Conference is closing in on us and I really want to run good so that we can show the other colleges how much we have improved. I have been basically injury except for some soreness here and there, but that can happen when you are putting in alot of mileage. We have been doing some longer runs out at "Grulla" which I think its really rough but in the end its going to pay off for us. School has kinda been tough for me these past couple of weeks cause I have had alot of things to think about but i'm planning on starting to just think about running and school. I have tried to date a few girls this semester but I keep getting the whole your just a great guy but I have too much to think about but oh well I guess that it is there lose. I really can't wait to run at regionals that are going to be in San Antiono, Texas. I just want to go and see the Alamo and run against some of the best people in the nation. I can't wait to go home for the holidays and see my family and everything else that has been going on.

Back for some more........

When I first came back to Eastern, I didn't really know why I was giving running a second chance. I didn't really run that well my freshman year and that was really kind of discouraging but I guess that life goes on. After a month of running my life away, I know why I'm hear. I think that I needed to prove to myself that i'm better than I thought I ever could have become. I'm running really good right now, but thats not the only thing that is going good for me right now. Life has been fantastic and school hasn't been too bad but I have a feeling that its going to be getting better. I never thought coming back to Eastern would make me this happy, but to be honest there are some days I wake up and I don't want to go running or school. But I have to stay motivated if i'm going to get anywhere in life. Also, living in my own house with four other guys is just insane. We do tend to get on each others nerves but when it comes down to it, were still going to be friends. Its crazy that Trav and Dev are going to be coming home in around a year, wow time just flies when you are living the dream. My sister went to homecoming this past weekend, I was sad that I wasn't there for her but I knew that she was in good hands. I'll try to get on her more but like I said earlier, life is hectic.
