Well despite the rather disappointing ending to my final
cross country season by missing a varsity letter due to just a bunch of
negatives (extended first mile, extremely muddy course, bad start) I finally
got the feeling that my times will finally start dropping the way I’ve expected
them to and with my better of the two sports coming up (Track & Field) I
plan on starting the winter (tune-up) season with a bang. I already started
lifting which is something I feel I’ve always needed to do ,but never started
and I’m getting more and more anxious to starting back up on distance runs with
everyday bringing the end of my two week mandatory rest coming close to an end.
New Goals (Obtainable and Reach)
3200m: Current PR: 10:58.00
(Obtainable)Sub 10:58.00 (New PR)
(Reach) ~10:00 (Not sure on this
prediction, but definitely better then 10:58 and seeing a “walk-on” standard
sheet for a particular school is driving me.)

(Obtainable)Sub 4:45.00 (Varsity
Letter),
(Reach)~4:32.00
800m: Current

And to anyone who even just skims this, good luck with your training and just to throw out a quote which is always in the back of my head.
“Do just once what others say you can't do and they will
never pay attention to your limitations again.”
