Rug Burn and A Book Rut

I have some very exciting news! I thought I would be going to the meet this weekend but yesterday at practice I found out that I finally get a weekend off! That means that this week I can push hard and workout to the max to get myself ready for the State meet for Pentathlon on February 22nd.

I may have gone too far in that thinking as yesterday I practiced 3 of my events! I went to high jump practice at 4 and stayed until 5:30 and then I proceeded to walk across the track to the Sprinters Practice. There, I did hurdles and then ran 200m repeats! I didn't leave the gym until after 7:30pm and today my body is sore!!! Plus the high jump mat basically gave me rug burn all over!!

In other news - I think I am in a book rut. My book ruts go like this:
I take a book out of the library
I start to read book
I don't like it
I feel guilty I am not reading said book
I finally allow myself to return book without finishing it
I take out another book

And the cycle continues! Life has been hectic with school (I am sorry for not commenting and reading blogs like usual) and I was hoping this week would allow me to finally relax but apparently not! By Friday I should be back to my normal lazy, school work slacking self and blogs will once again take over my life!

I am off to practice soon - Tuesdays are the intense workout days! I hope everyone has a good run today!
