New heights... these are what I try to strive for in everything I do. This is my attempt to document the new heights I work toward as after my career as a collegiate track athlete, specifically a pole vaulter came to an end. I know there are still many new heights to be reached!

4th of July!
Today was a great 4th of July, slept in til just after 9 this morning then did lab all day until around 3 when we headed out for our run! It was hot! Started with a mile warm up only to find that the normal park was filled with a 4th of July picnic, so we changed course and went on campus to find a spot. Ran 60 m today. 2 sets of 6. I was so excited to start but then the early stages of heat stroke set in, I did not drink nearly enough water today! So my speed dropped of significantly!! Got clear through the first set then went on a mission to find water. Ran 6 more then skipped a set of 2, then finished out the last 4, opted out of the bonus to today as well. I am quite disappointed in myself for letting this happen again! I need to get better about drinking water! Overall it was still an alright workout, finished up with 2 mins abs and stretching. Just finished up the 2 labs that are due on wednesday and getting ready to head out to some fireworks with group! Its exciting to celebrate the 4th in the US this year!!
