Written and Physical

I am quite proud of my self today.Now I do know that I have to redo my: pullups,  burpees and v-situps, but I did things today I never even thought possible. First off pushups, I didn't think I would make it at all, but I did. Second my written, I am AWFUL at taking tests, absolutly horrible, but once I saw the first question, I knew I had it in a bag. And thrid above all else my run, oh my goodness gracious. 20:45 minutes. 4 days ago, I could 2.5 miles in 27 minutes. Yeserday, I ran 2.5 miles in 25:43 minutes, and I thought I wouldn't make it. Then today when i reached the half way point and my dad told me that we had 16 minutes left I was shocked; I would have never guessed that. And if it wasn't for my dad, i would be running again, he pushed me the whole way, and then made me sprint to the end. Of course im still mad I didn't complete everything, I am so proud that I pushed myself. And now I'm going to have a short break then go to softball practice.

Noles Win!
