Personal:

Attended Japanese high school and finished in March 2020. Was very lucky to be able to be a member of a very good team of runners at my high school, even though I was injured most of the time and was not able to be much of a contributor. Am currently doing an Engineering internship at a large manufacturer of Automotive transmissions, etc. It is really exciting. In spring of 2021, if COVID-19 has subsided, I am planning to serve an LDS mission, after which I plan to go to college and study Engineering.

Total Distance
12.00

AM: Did a warm up run.

Ran a 5k time trial with Jun chan. We started out trading off the lead, then at about 3000 meters I pulled away in front and was feeling comfortable, but then all of a sudden at about 4000 m, Jun chan passed me. I should have gone with her, but I lost my concentration and then things kind of just shut down. I finished in 17:07, which is a PR for me, but I know I could have gone with her. She ran under 17. I was also aiming at under 17 today. It makes me mad that I lost it mentally.

Two weeks to go until official team practice begins. I am really doubting that I will make the A team. It is kind of sad that after three years I will probably never run on the A team. I think I could have done it if it hadn't been for injuries. Oh well, if I end up on the B team or the C team, hopefully we can make that team competitive with the A team.

PM: 6 easy miles

17:07 is an excellent time! you’re choosing to look at the bad rather than the good - some day life can always get better, some say it can always get worse. both are true, but the person choosing to see the former will always thrive more than the latter. so if you want to thrive, see it as a PR, not bad mentality! and work on mentality for the next race/time trial.
