I hurt.

Today was my first track practice, along with the news that, since the track team has grown exponentially since last year, twenty of the fifty-two girls that showed up will be cut from the team.
Fingers crossed that it's not me--fingers crossed that it's me--oh, I'm going to go back and forth all day.
For warm-ups, we ran around the school for ten minutes and stretched (although stretching isn't recommended by professionals). Then we did ab work, form work, and sprinting--ladders. Ladders are, basically, sprinting up a hill and jogging back down, first in thirty seconds, then in twenty-five, and so forth. After that, we ran around the football field, softball field, and baseball field probably ten times. Then we stretched out and did a hundred crunches to top off this delicious ice cream sundae of pain.
My brand-new shoes are so muddy.
Love,
Caiti
