LSU Relays

I have not been able to practice all week and we had a relay meet at LSU on Friday and Saturday. It was tough not being able to train like I have been but it was a good week. I got my stitches out on Thursday. My coaches didn’t think I was going to compete so they didn’t enter me into any individual events. All I know is that God answers prayers and I was able to run this weekend. We went to Baton Rouge on Friday early afternoon and my relay wasn’t until 7pm. Thanks to a friend, I went to Inga’s a local sandwich shop with a teammate…so good. I even went there on Saturday, too. I had never run in a sprint medley relay (200, 200, 400, 800) before so it was fun to do one. I ran the second 200 and it was nice to run again though we were in a pretty fast heat. Second day in Baton Rouge I ran in the 4x4 relay, which was the last event of the meet. I was the anchor and I got out really well, but still have to work on finishing stronger. We ran our best 4x4 time of the season, which was good. We are excited to work with it and see how we can improve. My knee also didn’t spilt open and I’m thankful for that. Unfortunately we are not competing at LSU this week like originally scheduled but a few girls are going to the Florida Relays. As far as school goes I had two tests last week that went well. I have a few presentations to give this week and I’m looking forward to it.
