GOLD!

Man I keep dying! Well not in practice but after. I'm like so exhausted! It's really fun though. I have friends in that group, and I think I'm always laughing. We had to fill out this 3 page goal sheet though. It wasn't too hard, but I've been so used to other goal sheets. For the younger groups, It's the same old questions every year.

Name:___. Age:___. Birthday:___. Group:___. Team:___. Will you attend every practice and be on time?:___. What are your goals for this year?:___

Yeah well for Gold, it's so different! Our coach typed it all up and asks you how you will get better, how you act during the different kind of sets (Kick, Pull, Swim, Sprints, Dives, Turns, Tests). It's pretty amazing how everything changes from silver to gold! I really love it though. It's really fun, and it's really helping me! Well I gotta go! Thanks for reading!

Pretty booked, eh? Well when cross country ends, it'll be a little less tight. But until then, I can only do stuff on Friday night, Saturday afternoon, and Sunday afternoon! Okay now back to what I REALLY want to talk about. Today at cross country we ran 3 miles, I came home, did some homework, then went off to swim practice to swim 5,400 yards. It was pretty exhausting! I'm worn out! Luckily, I didn't have much to do other than a poster tonight. On Tuesdays we have library so I finished all my homework in there. Hopefully there will be some spare time tomorrow so I can work on my homework at school! Well, I gotta go get ready for bed. Thank's for reading!!

Cross Country meet!

Oh wow! Last night was so much fun! Our course was odd. We ran through this tall grass for our first lap, then once we passed the shelter at the park, we went by the river on our second lap. There was so much sand it was so hard to run through! But the good news is... I GOT A BEST TIME! My new time is 14:55 and I placed fourth at the meet! I am so happy! This time, I really did feel like I was going to puke. I burped and was like, "Oh crap, I'm gonna hurl now." Luckily I didn't, but it was a close call. I am really happy about my time. The course was actually kind of difficult. But it was fun. Oh and I've been being a real brat lately and I have no idea what's up. So I'm really sorry dad. I guess there's something wrong with me.

Whatever back to the subject. I have to run today, since I won't be able to make it to cross country tomorrow. I have swim practice. Speaking of swim practice... IT STARTED UP AGAIN! Finally! I had dryland last Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Then I had real practice the next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. And now, the real schedule starts. Every day except Friday! That's a lot of swimming but who cares! I love it! Well gotta go! Thanks for reading!

Wow. Have I been busy or what? Sixth grade is actually kinda hard. I had some projects for different classes, a few tests, and a ton of homework! That's why I haven't had a chance to blog. Swimming finally started up again! I'm so happy!! Anyway, today is my second cross country meet! My first one I placed 11 out of 63! My time was 15:38. I was really happy with my performance. Oh and some more things! I have to hurry and finish up, because I have to get ready for cross country tonight, and make it to school! Gaa! Alright I promise, after I finish my homework tonight I will blog about my cross country meet! I really gotta get going!

SHOUT OUT: To my parents, for taking me everywhere. I really appreciate it, I know it's exhausting. I love you!

Thanks for reading!!
