relays today and last day of camp. it was a bummer cause it was the first year my team didnt win but its cause our first runner was confused and thought he was doing two miles then handing off the baton but he was supposed to do 800 then hand off the baton so he like slow jogged and came in so behind and i was very mad but its okay cause he was just confused. the loop was supposed to be 800 meters but it was really like a 600 so really it wasnt 4 miles but my watch died so the miles are a guess lol. probably gonna do some more miles tonight if im feelin it

gut run at camp and it was bleh. my achillies started shooting pain after about 25 min up and I had to stop and i felt very dumb. and then that made me loose the pack i was running with so i had to work extra hard to catch up with the pain in my achillies and it was just the worst. then running down they wouldnt wait for me and my legs turned to jello and it just sucked alot but its fine im over it. 8.2 total on the gut run then a little less than 3 mile night recovery run
