i try so hard

i try so hard to count. i really do. i just can't seem to do it. just like in cross country when we did those fartlick (sp) things where you run, walk, and jog and repeat. and i could do the 1 min of this 2 of that 3 of that but i couldn't tell you how many sets of those 3 things i did. i never could.

today we were at the track 30 min. counting walking to and from the car and taking 3 min to stretch
i really didn't know if i did 7 8 9 or 10 laps
we decided it wasn't 7
and it wasn't 10
i ran a 400. stretched
ran a 400
walked 100
run 100
a laaop of stuff (i can't even remember that)
then i started running a mile at 16:02
26:40 i finished running said mile (that's 4 laps there and i ran straight through so that i could count. the first 2 laps were at 5 min 1 second so it looks like my pace slowed)
then walked the last half lap and to the car and that took almost 4 min.
so 14 min = 4.5 laps
how many laps were there in 13 min (stretching was 3 min). i ran faster at the beginning i learned when i walk between things and walk 100 m that i do that in 1 min so if i walked it all i'm on pace for a 16 min mile.
first lap was liek 2 min
then i stretched
then 2 min 10 seconds for the next 400
so now i have 6.5 laps accounting for and 9 min left.

i'm guessing i did 9 lap. who knows though

i listened to the ipod today. the arm band fits now. i guess i got a fat enough arm now.
today i ran a 200 somewhere in there and i did that in 53 seconds. so that's pretty good. faster than half my 400 time but slower than double my 100 time.

it was raining today and 50 degrees.
