8 in the morning, got more sleep than last night but not much more. Might move workouts back a week to get my mileage back up first.

4 after classes. Probably going to start going to the library after class and study for a couple of hours and wait for it to cool down. Gonna get to bed early and maybe do some fartlek work tomorrow morning if I feel up to it. Love fartleks, I don't know what it is about them but I feel like they get me in shape faster than any speed or tempo work. Hope I still love them at 5AM

Great running the last couple of days. Seems like your calf must be back to normal.

By the way, if you need any help with Fluid Mechanics, just let me know. I know a few things about streamlines and Bernoulli's equation, but when it comes to turbulent flow you are on your own. :)

I think I'll be okay; I actually bought the textbook a few months ago and taught myself the course so I could get an easy A+, so all this is fresh in my mind. I'm super impressed you already know Bernoulli's equation though! That equation is about 40% of the fluids course in one way or another, and it's a super important equation in engineering in general.

Also i'm pretty sure if the engineering college found out I was getting tutored by a high school student I'd lose some scholarships :)

We have done a little fluid mechanics in my physics class here in Japan. I also love engineering and have done a lot of studying on my own. I don't know if you know the MIT Online courses, but there are some really good ones with classroom videos and stuff. They are all free online for anyone.

I plan on studying some kind of engineering in college.

oh also adding on the similarities i had with you in high school, i was also able to do a lot of miles for being so young, im not sure how much your teammates run but no one else on my team did more than 30 miles a week. i think my highest week in high school was 84, and i wouldn’t be surprised if you did more than that if you already haven’t. the difference was i started running half marathons when i was 12 so running was already a semi-veteran runner by senior year. i think you just have a lot of talent for running.

also if you’d like my personal opinion, the major broad engineering fields are chemical, civil and mechanical. they branch out to have the most applicability and need in the real world(not that the other majors like computer science aren’t also good jobs).

Right now I am leaning most toward Mechanical engineering. Chemistry is not my favorite, so chemical engineering is out of the question.
