am-45 min

Felt REALLY good today. Since I figured out what was wrong with my breathing and how to help it, today was a lot better. If I can run like how I did today everyday, then I feel like this season is going to be my best one ever. The run was pretty hard today, but I could breathe better so it was easier to push faster. Brianna was just a little ahead of me the whole time. My goal was to catch her, and I got close, but ended a few steps behind her. Felt fantastic :D

other-So I tried my new medicine today that's going to hlep me breathe, and it worked so good! Just from one day I was able to run so much faster because my breathing was a lot better!

am-30 min w/4xstriders

the grass felt really nice today, we went a pretty good pace. But I only did 4xstriders because since my hip has been hurting lately the striders really make it hurt it.

other-So my health has gotten worse the past couple months and it really put me behind on my running and stuff. Especially because my breathing has been AWFUL. I have attacks at random times during the day where I just can't breathe and it's really scary. I went to the doctor today and he gave me results from the pft (pulminary function test) that I had last week. Apparently my lungs only function at 45% of what they should, and at the highest work at 62%. That's....kinda bad. So I'm trying some stronger stuff and hopefully it helps. I'm excited to try the new stuff because if it works I can progress a lot faster this year because breathing is really the only thing that holds me back when I run. So I'm happy

am-dirt mile, progress faster each lap-45 min total

I honestly dont know the exact time of each lap, but I'm most positive it got faster each time. The first lap was alright, and the second felt a little better. The strongest point for me was the second half of the second lap and the first half of the third lap. But at the end of the third lap I felt completely drained and slowed down a lot. My legs felt really good today, the only thing that held me back at all was my breathing.
