XC

So i started cross country in august, and its the funnest sport i have ever done! well idk if you would call it a sport, but ya. for practice we run between 1-5 miles every day after school. it sounds hard, but when you have really good friends on your team, it makes it really fun!!

Our first meet was in Green Canyon. We ran 1.6 miles, and i got like 13:35 or somethin like that. Our next meet was in Freeman Park. We only ran 1.5 miles, but that day neither me, or kelsie felt that good so we got like 13 min again. We got to go to bosie for a meet. none of the middle school kids got to run cause they didnt have enough money, but since me and kelsie were already going to watch kolton run, we got to run too.

When we got there, it was POURING rain!! the varsity boys and girls all had to run in the rain, then the freshman boys ran, and it was so nice outside!! it was perfect temp for running!!! then they started the freshman girls, and it was really nice outside, then it started to rain again. you could see the HUGE big black clouds starting to come. after the girls, it was middle school boys, then girls. they postponed the girls race because of lightning. it was raining really hard! it was lightning really bad. it was really scarry!! we ended up deciding to go home. me and kelsie didnt get to run, but it didnt really matter because we still got the trip to Boise!!

On friday was our meet in Blackfoot. it was the flattest course i will ever run!! it was 1.5 for the middle school. when i started our running, i was in first place. then i let someone pass me, cause i didnt really know where i was going. i ended up getting 7th place out of the whole race. my time was 11:15!!! it made me so happy!! they decided to give out the top ten people meddals for the race!!! me and kelsie got medals cause she got eighth!! it was the best race ever!! and i bet that there were at least 20-30 people running for middle school!! it was the best race ever!!

cross country is fun, but the best part is that my friends get to do it with me too, and kelsie and kolton too. i especially like the meets cause my mom and dad cheer for me the whole way!! its always lots of fun! and hearing there voices while im running, knowing that there proud of me makes me was to run faster than i have ever run before!!

thank you everyone for cheering me on!!!!!

Life Wrap Up

So i know i havent really written in like 2 or 3 months, but im sorry, youll see why in just a minut!!

so this year im in 8th grade in RMMS. kelsie is in 7th. i enjoy having her in the same school as me again. no more gettin home at different times, no more tryin to get ahold of eachother, cause were just in the same school. but being in eighth grade also brings one joy to my life, and one dissapoinment to my moms. i go to high school next year. ya its way exciting for me, and kinda scarry, but for my mom, it may be difficult. she cried when i turned 12 and went into YW, she cried when i got babtized( well most moms do) so i think that it may be hard for her, or it may be fine, either way, ill just nod my head and agree. that usually works.

i am now in bonneville cross country. so is kelsie and kolton. its fun having your brother and sister in the same activity at the same time. its fun just to get out and do stuff together. every day for practice we have to either sprint, or run 1-5 miles. it may sound hard, but when you have a bunch of friends to do it with, it is fun.

i started dace again. i know i quit last year, but i just needed a break, so now im doin it again. but it kinda interfears with xc and track. xc gets over at 5:30, or 6 on mondays, and dace startes at 5. i would MUCH prefer running, but dancing is fun too, so ill have to suck it up.

i am also in piano lessons still. i still take from Christina hudman, who is an EXTEEMLY good teacher, shes patient,and nice, but still pushes you a little. some piano teachers push you to do good, others are nice and are patient, but dont try to push you. Christinas both. i love taking piano lessons, but they interfear with xc too. same with dance, its a time issuse.

well, thats my life since i wrote last. so now you can all stop bugging me about writing again!!!
