On Friday we were out of school with a teacher work day so we ran in my neighborhood for about an hour and we hydrated before and after. We are planning on going back to the YMCA next week so that we can continue running and improving our mile time while also improving our stamina and speed. This is gonna help us with out sports as well because both involve lots of running. Our goal is to reach under 6 minutes within the next week or two so that by the end of the project we will have our mile times at what we want them to be.

For this week we went to the YMCA to run a mile so that we will be able to compare the time that we run at the end of this project. Isaac's time for the mile was 8 minutes and 20 seconds and Evan's time was 9 minutes and 15 seconds. We were talking about running another mile on a track again in the middle of the project. We would still run a mile at the end but we think it would show our progress way better if we also ran in the middle of this project. We were going to upload pictures of our stats from the app run keeper but we couldn't figure out how to upload a picture from camera rollFor this week we both got in a good amount of running time from sports practices. We didn't get to run in our free time and track it. But we will definitely do that on week 3. For week 3 we have a goal to run at least 2 miles in our free time. 2 miles isn't a lot but we already do a lot of running from sports practices and the point of this project is to progress over time. For week 3 we plan on running in our neighborhoods and tracking our route and run time by the app run keeper. We plan on switching off each week on writing the blog post. This way it will be just a simple rotation.
