Hey!
Today is Wensday. My WISE presentation is ALMOST in one week! I can't believe it. This week I met with Coach Love and I showed him my outline and he and I set up times for about how long I should talk about each section. As of now there is not too much for me to blog about. Im continuing to get my stuff together. I am going to Arizona this weekend to visit my sister so I am very excited about that! But when I get back I have to be ready to present. I also signed up for the time we wanted on May 5th. It is my dads birthday so he will be happy to see my presentation on his birthday. I will be back later to blog.

Hello!
Thursday afternoon was killer! It was def one of the hardest workouts I did with Kristi so far! Because I was so sore I had to take friday off. Saterday I got back into it and went to the gym for a while. It was refreshing to not be under pressure about being ready to do a long run. I worked more on my scrapbook on saterday and sunday. It is really coming together and looking cute. Brit and I are meeting this afternoon to continue working on our visuals. Today I have my last mentor meeting with Coach Love! I can't believe that WISE is coming to an end. We also think we came up with a day to present, and that is May 5th. I am very excited! We def have a lot to do in the next few weeks but it is managable. I made an outline of what I think the presentation is going to look like for Coach Love today. I am going to get his opinion and see what he says. Ill be back and let you know how it goes!

Hello!
Today is Thursday but we do not have school tomorrow so it is really like a friday! This afternoon I am going to meet with Kristi and have a training session. Last afternoon Brit and I went to the Y and worked out together. Today is the day that we can sign up for presentations. I cannot believe it is already here! These weeks feel like they have flown by! We are hoping that we get to present on May 5th. We have to make sure that it works with everyone though. We got our pictures developed from the trip and they came out great! It brings back a lot of good memories even though it was only two weeks ago. I am gonna go now but ill be back and let you know how my workout went.

Two days ago I went on a bike ride with my friend Jesse! It was a lot of fun and now that the race is over I have more freedom as to what I do with my workouts. We biked a total of seven miles. It was a nice ride except it was incredibly hot out! we now know for next time to wait until it cools down. After the ride my leggs hurt, I think its becuase it was a change in my workout. Anytime I do something that I have not done in a while or change something in my workout I usually get sore. Ill be back to blog later. I am in interior design now and need to go!

Hey readers!
Yesterday we watched Coach Loves presentation. It was such a great presentation to watch. He def set the standards high. After watching his presentation it gave me a better feeling for what I have to do. It is a lot of work but it is deffintaltly possible. After having out mentor meeting this week he told me that he wanted me to come up with an outline for my presentation. Yesterday helped me realize some of the things I want to and need to include. At first I though that 35 min sounded like a long time to present but realistly it isn't. I have accomplished so much in the past 16 weeks and I will have plenty to talk about. Last night I met with Brit and we started to work on our scrapbooks. We decided that we are going to make two seperate ones that way we will both have one to hold on to at the end of the project. We can also continue with our scrapbook in the runs that we do togetehr in the future. Scrapbooking is a lot of fun but it can also be overwheleming trying to fot everything into a small page. After school today I am going to work out with Brit. We arn't sure what we are going to do yet but its been over a week since we last ran together so I am excited to get back into that with her! Im going to go but I will be back later!

Hello!
Sorry I have not blogged. My last post I posed the pictures that where sent to my from the website. This week I plan on getting a lot of my presentation done. I can't believe presentations are so soon! Today I have my weekly mentor meeting. Tomorrow we are watching Coach Loves presentation. I am excited to see that because I think it will be a really good foundation to what should be included on my project. This past weekened I aprticiped in the relay for life. It was not a run, but it was a walk. Even though my WISE project is technically done I plan on continuing. Because me and Brit plan on doing our next half in in October we are not going to stop with our running. It is easier to just keep doing it rather then starting over again. This part of WISE is a lot of fun for me because personally I love making visuals and looknig back on my WISE experence. After thinking about it we decided that it would most likely be easiest to have our WISE presntation in school. It would be easiest for our peers to come and there is no reason for it to be in another location. Today I am going to talk to Coach Love about this more in detail.

Today is 2 days after the race! I am still sore and have huge blisters on my feet. I am still so happy and feel so accomplished that I finished. Today I have my meeting with Coach Love. I am excited to tell him all about the race. We are trying to convince our moms to do it with us next year.I think that would be really cool. Later today Brittany and I are going to print some of the pictures we took. We plan on making a scrapbook and also using the pictures for different things. The next three weeks we have to focus on getting our presentation together. Kristi said that we can meet with her later this week and she can text us again. I am excited to see the changes that we made. We still plan on running and want to continue with it. The good thing is that the pressure is off!

Hello!
Today was the day of the big race!!!! It was such an incredible experience! Yesterday my family and Brits family went up to Clearwater beach. It was beautiful there. We had a fun time at dinner together and it was such a great bonding experience. We both made sure that we drank plenty of water yesterday and eat plenty of carbs. After getting dinner and ice cream we headed back to the hotel because we knew we would have to get up early! We woke up at 5 :30 and left the hotel by 6. We had plenty of time to walk around and stretch before the race. I was nervous but I tried to keep calm. When the race started we decided we where going to run the first two miles without slowing down. After about 5 min we reached our first bridge. The bridges where very steep! And on this course we had go to over four bridges! When we reached about mile 4 I started to get really bad stomach pains and I told Brit to go ahead without me because I did not want to make her stop. The races was on a beautiful course! There where not enough water stations though. There where people cheering us on every mile and that was extremely motivating! At mile 11 I was starting to second guess myself and was scared that I was not going to make it. My stomach and feet killed! But I knew that I could do anything I put my mind too! Finally after 2 hrs and 52 min I finished! It was the greatest feeling! We took plenty of awesome pictures over the trip! I am so proud of me and Brit for doing this! I know that I could not have done it without her! After the race we walked around for a little and then headed back to the hotel. We where both extremely sore so we hoped right in the hot tub. It felt great! Shortly after that we wanted to get on the road. It was such a great accomplishment and I can't wait to do our next one. Ill be back tomorrow and give the report on how I am feeling the day after!

Hello!
Today it is Wensday. This week got a little messed up becuase we did not have school this past monday. My meeting with Coach Love got reschduled to today. These past couple days have been good for my project. Britany and I went and got shirts that we are going to wear for the race the other day! I really like them so I am excited. I can't believe it is this week! Tomorrow we have our last training session with Kristi. I don't know what to expect but I deffitnaly don't think she will kill us because she said she wants us to take it kind of easy this week. Last night I ran 3 miles. Today we are not sure what we are going to do yet. Britany and I are both going to bring out laptops with us this weekend and hopefully get some cool footage to help put our project together! I am very happy that the race is this week becuase we have a few weeks to focus on our presentation. I am going to add some noodletools right now. Ill be back later
