After school I did the workout 1200, 600, 400, 400, 400, 400, 200, 200, 200, (200). The 1200 was 3:38, about a 72 second pace. It was harder than I expected, and Morgan was right behind me. the 600 was right at 70 second 400 pace, and I was right with Morgan. I had some breathing trouble, so I went in and took my inhaler. the next one I ran with Morgan and did a 65 and I was with Morgan. The next was a 66, and Morgan was a 64-65. I held back a little, because I had two more. Morgan didn't run the next one, and I ran a 67. On the last one, I couldn't quite stay with Morgan, but ran a 65 and was just a little behind Morgan. after those, Morgan and I were both really tired and felt sick, so we didn't time them, but just ran three pretty hard. (We didn't do the last one.) Morgan was a little bit ahead of me on all of them.

Later I lifted weights and ran. I did 3.5 miles on the treadmill at 25:00. It felt good, and I wasn't too tired.
