Track @ MindSay

D:
i know.
don't remind me.

i couldn't get a ride back from the meet.
even if i could, i couldn't get an administrator's signature for the release to leave the meet anyways.

don't tell me how excited i was.
i know.

OUCH MOTHER FUCKER!!!
that happened a bunch today!
holy shit!!




oh and by the way:
i know that you're talking shit about me right in front of my face.
do you think i'm just stupid or something?
damn.

the triathalon for track was today.
i'm usually dreading it, only today wasn't so bad.
last year was like, CUT THROAT COMPETITION.
this year was like, hey yeah it's a mini triathalon.

the swim is 750 meters.
which is like half a mile.
which is 32 freaking laps.
the bike is six miles.
and the run is 3 miles.

i ran last year and this year too.
the course has a lot of hills in it, but it's really not horrible.
plus running cross country puts me as a good candidate for sprinters running it.
the distance kids own obviously. haha.

so my team was Audrey, Apple, and Me.
Audrey's a lifeguard, so i asked her if she would swim for us because she's not in track.
she accepted! :D
so it's chill.
and she was really good!
13:06. not the best, but i think we were like 10th or 12th. so things were looking good.

and the way it works is like this.
all the swimmers go, and then the bikers go from when the swimmers go.
so they have to wait for ALL the swimmers to finish, and then they let the bikers out in correspondence to the swimmers.
ya dig?
so we were pretty okay.

except...Apple was like, the slowest you could possibly be.
we were thinking she was lost or something. even though the course was like a straight line to a cone and then turn around and come back to the pool..
she still could've got lost. ha.
so at first i was like oh okay some people passed her whatever.
then i was like okay i guess she got lost..
then i was freaking out because almost EVERYONE was gone and Apple didn't show up yet.

she came in last.
she had some trouble with her chain and she fell and stuff, so that's why.

but anyways.
she came in last, but i wasn't too worried.
i passed about five people on the course, so i was okay.

i think our time was like, 1:51 or something.
haha.

track started today.
first practice of the season.

it's always a good one, ya know.
there are tons of people there so you basically have someone to talk to no matter what.
it'll change though.
it'll change.

there were TONS of people this year.
last year a lot of people didn't do it because Statzer left.
but this year a lot of those same people decided to do it anyways.
and that's good.
K's doing it. and she's only super amazing fast.

what else...?
oh yeah, like i said Satan is a manager this year instead of running.
i'd rather her just NOT do it.
but also, there are a bunch of managers!
satan,
B who i also really hate,
this girl Alexa,
this girl Ashley...
and some others i didn't even see their faces.

the triathalon is this saturday too..
no team because Audrey isn't doing track and i doubt Apple will come through.
i'll probably end up with Kali and Kami though..

whatevs.
looks better than last year by far.
but, like i said.
the people? they'll change.
about a quarter at the least will quit.
