Hello Again

Whoa, It's been a while. I'm going to try and revive this blog in case there's anyone out there that still read. A quick recap of my year is in due order. However for now I'll suffice to say that I am successfully recovered from my injury from last year. Graduated from UT Tyler with a B.S. in Kinesiology this spring and am currently enrolled in grad school at UT Tyler for Kinesiology and working as a graduate assistant. I'm still running xc but working exclusively with my triathlon coach Shelly O'brien. Running is going great. I've been setting some good pr's this season running 27:32 for 8k at a meet in Memphis, Tennesse four weeks ago. 2 weeks ago at the Univesity of Arkansas I ran 34:12 for 10k which was a HUGE pr for me. I went through 5 miles in 27:29 which equates to about a 27:20 8k. Our conference meet is this Saturday and hosted by UT Tyler. We do not have a fast course by any means but I'll be looking to run fast and get close to my pr. Then at regionals in Memphis drop that time down some more. Maybe break 27? Stay tuned.
