First, that was a really long title.
Second, I'm sorry I haven't done a post in a while. But I have a good reason.
I was too lazy to.
Haha, just kidding. Sort of. Actually, I've been the opposite of lazy. I've been busy. Well, I've been so busy that I'm lazy when I do have free time. Does that make sense?
Yeah, I didn't think so.
So about a week after I published my last post I left on another mission trip, this time to Rapid City, South Dakota. (12 hour drive :P) I worked in a home for people with special needs. And when I got back, I spent most of my time taking decent showers and getting back into shape at cross country camp. And then at the beginning of August, I had a backpacking trip with my church. I still have mosquito bites. But heck, I can't complain. I'm just thankful I didn't fall 200 feet on one of the 3-foot-wide ledges.
Hehe.
And then the night I get back I have to get up at 4 in the morning so we can leave early for vacation. Darn it. (I meant to the getting up part... not the vacation part.)
So yeah. We got back almost a week ago. But "official" cross country practice started Monday, and that goes from 8-10:30. It's pretty brutal. Yesterday...
~I logged 7 miles.
~I did 45 push-ups.
~I did a lot of curl-ups. I lost count after 78.
I kinda wish they'd be easier on the freshman. But the coaches know what they're doing, I guess.
So by the time I get back I just go back to sleep. But by then the sun's up so I usually just kinda lay there and suck down water.
Well, that's what I've been up to this summer. No major injuries to report. Except for... wait, I don't want people to know about that. It's too embarrassing. Hehe.
Fine, quit begging, I'll tell you.
When I was running at cross country camp, I was on a trail across from the golf course. And some guy trying to show off to his golfing buddies by hitting a ball from across the street hit me on his backswing.
I guess it's kinda my fault, I didn't even see him. But I'm not sure it's even legal to hit a golf ball across one of the busiest streets in town.
I hope everybody had a good summer and good luck this year in school!
Well, we can all hope. ;)

P.S. One of the coaches said she was impressed how "graceful my form was." Ha. Wait 'til she gets to know me.
