Mon. March 24, 2008- Laura' knees were hurting today. She tried to do some of her run, but didn't get very far.

Tues. March 25, 2008- We had badminton practice for 1 1/2 hours after school. We then went to soccer practice for 1 1/2 hours. We then went home and did core exercises. Laura didn't go to dance class. She felt good on her 8 km run.

Wed. March 26, 2008- We did not have a workout today. Leslie practiced some badminton, and we got ready for tomorrow's tournament in Stratford.

Thurs. March 27, 2008- We left at 7am for the badminton tournament. Leslie and I played girls doubles, and although we won all of our matches, our team placed 2nd overall, which is still really good. We got home at 5:30pm, we had a quick supper and did core exercises before going to badminton practice for 1 1/2 hours. Laura ran her 10 km on the treadmill. She ran at a relatively fast pace, and felt a little tired, but good.

Fri. March 28, 2008- We had today off. Laura is a little stiff, but is feeling good.

Sat. March 29, 2008- Laura went to the workout, where she started with a long warm up and 4 strides. She did 6 x 200 m hills, going hard up them and jogging down. We then did 6 of the "long" hills, afterwhich we ran a relatively fast 2.25 km. Laura felt good, but tired. We finished with drills, strides, and an extra-long cool down.

Sun. March 30, 2008- Leslie and I went with our badminton coach to Woodstock for a tournament that consists of Western Ontario teams. We had some close games, but were undefeated and won! Our teacher says that she has never had a team win at Woodstock for as long as she has been teaching! We got home at about 8:30pm. Laura wanted to do a run and core exercises, but her parents said that she was too tired, but parents always know best!

Total:
Laura:
Running: 29 km Badminton: 6 hours Soccer: 1 1/2 hours

Leslie:
Badminton: 6 1/2 hours Soccer: 1 1/2 hours
*Leslie is getting very frustrated with her lack of running. Is there anything she could do instead?
