NATIONALS

This blog is just one big PSA. Everyone and their dog should know this information so I will tell you. You're welcome!

So this Friday our cross country team hosted the midwest regional meet at our home course in Peoria. Our boys went in ranked 5th in the region which was tied for our highest ranking ever. So that in itself was a feat. Our boys went out and ran the 10k of their lives and by a complete miracle, pulled out second place to auto qualify for the national meet in Wisconsin!! They beat 2 nationally ranked teams and they are now ranked as #25 in the country. Our boys made history on Friday and now you can go watch them continue that history this Saturday.

It makes me so happy to see the people that work so hard every day right along side me finally be recognized for all of their hard work. This team is so special and they deserve every piece of history that they are paving.

Hellloo. Welcome to my first ever blog. I guess the best way to start this would be with an introduction. My name is Savana Peterson and I am a senior marketing major and ML minor here at Bradley. I am from right smack dab in the middle of Nebraska. So far you probably have two thoughts. "Dang you're from the middle of nowhere" and "How in the world did you end up at Bradley?". Don't worry I'm prepared to answer both. Yes I am from the middle of nowhere. Literally in the exact middle of nowhere if we are being specific but I wouldn't change a thing about where I grew up. You get used to hearing ope 10 times a day and you meet so so so many genuine people. Basically the opposite from spending your afternoon in downtown Chicago. How did I end up out here? Easy, you're gonna here so much about this that you might be just as exhausted as I am. Running running and more running. Sounds fun right?? If you are saying no right about now then don't wor...

The Underwater Treadmill of Death

Well to start this off I just wanna say that I am 87% sure that my last blog post jinxed me. It was all about running, the good the bad and the even worse. And what do you know it we are now in the even worse stage. Recently I have been having a lot of problems with my I.T. band. This is a muscle that runs along the outside of your leg. It starts at your hip and runs all the way down to your knee. So basically if this muscle becomes very tight (like mine) you have extreme pain whenever you bend your leg at your knee. So basically anything except laying in bed motionless. Soooo yeah things are going great. Now instead of running I wake up at the crack of dawn to do lots and lots of painful exercises to try to strengthen basically all of my leg muscles so that my muscle magically happens to un-tighten from its ball of fury. You would think that running 50 miles a week would strengthen your legs right? Yeah I thought so too but the answer is no. Actually running so much just makes me mu...
