Oct. 15 2009

Today we played volley-ball in personal fitness. I hope we can play more volley-ball becasue I plan on trying out for senior team fingers crossed. I also had a quick run after school for the cross country team, which has made me really sore. Not what i wanted before a meet tommorow.

Fitness Goals

1. To gain 3cm on my vertical jump.
- I want to improve my spiking for volleyball and adding height to my vertical jump is the way to do that.
- I am planning on doing mostly leg workouts when we go to the lair. That is how I plan to achieve my goal.

2. To be able to get to 55 on the beep test.
- I want to improve my cardiovascular endurance for my dancing.
- I am planning on trying my best in whatever runs we do to achieve this.

Today i ran at the trinty college cross country meet of 2009.
The trinity race is known as one of the toughest courses in Ontario, for its monsterous hill, at the end of each race, known as mount trinity.
Out of 300 senior girls, i came 16 in the senior girls 5km. I was satisfied with my time which was 19.18, but i am going to try to cut that time by 18 seconds by COSSA.
This race pretty much finished me off completely, and made me ask myself, why in hell do i do this to myself. I think i really need to work on my core work to improve my time, which i will do this week.

Sept 22

today i did some weights in the lair, in the class, along with some rowing strides, but i tried to save my energie for my 5km race tommorow. My goal for tommorow is around 20 minutes, and under 20 when placing.

sept 21

today i went for a 4km jog along the hilliard street bike path.
The run took me about twenty minutes, and overall didnt really challenge me like the weights do in the lair.

Weekly Blog September 14 - 18 ?

Our whole class had to participate in a 10/1 run for a period. I thought this run was not that bad but you get very tired at the end. This run made my legs a little sore the next day.

The next day we worked out in the Lair. We had to fill out a chart of exercises and figure out our 1 rep maxes. This was great because it gave me a good workout on my whole body.

September 14-18
This week we went for short runs on the Hillard bike path, and a second path along the otonobee river. These runs didnt really force me to puch my self that hard.
The weights on the other hand, which we did for the rest of the week, put alot of strain on my body, and made me push myself very hard.
