Running Accomplishments:

2nd Year of XC (Senior Year). My best races thus far have come from Nike Regionals down in Pheonix (5K), the Dixie Invitational (800), and the Davis Invitational (1600). I took 8th place in the 1600 and 11th in the 800 at 3A State. Also at state we were in the slower heat of the Sprint Medley and ended up taking 3rd overall, that was pretty legit.

Best 3 miler: 17:06

Best 5K: 16:28

Best 800: 1:59

Best 1600: 4:24

TRACK GOALS FOR 2014:

Sub 4:20 in the 1600

4:15 in the 1600

Sub 9:50 in the 3200

9:30 in the 3200

PR in the 800

1:54 in 800

Long-Term Running Goals:

After high school and my mission I think that it would be really cool to get into the St. George Marathon. That is one thing I would like to accomplish in my lifetime. Hopefully I will be able to do multiple. In all I would just like to enjoy the time I run and have some fun experiences with it.

Total Distance
13.00

AM: easy three with my boys, always a fun run to arctic circle.

PM: 10 miles. AT tempo. Goal pace: 5:27-32. 35 minutes. Warmed up 2.37 miles which was pretty good, then we just got right into it on our 1.5 mile tempo loop. First 1.5 was 8:13, feeling really good and relaxed. Second loop was a 16:30 (8:17), this was a little tougher but stuck it in physically. 3rd loop was a 24:44 I think (8:14). And this last 1.5 loop is where mental toughness came in I hit the 6 miles at 33:00 (8:16) and only had two minutes left so I pushed down the hill to reach a tempo distance around 6.23. Pace calculator online says it's 5:37, good pace. Big 10K PR since I've never run one as a race.. Just under 35 minutes. Pretty sick workout. Enjoyed it a lot! Cooled down to 10.
