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 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.

Usual three in the morning.. legs feeling a little tight, throat kind of sore. For the afternoon it was repeat day. We had 4X1000 and then 2X300 at our fast pace. I was looking for a 3:15 on my 1000's. My first was a 3:15, second was 3:14, third was 3:16 and fourth was 3:15. Next was our 300's, the first was a :41, the second one was a :44. They had full recovery in between so not too bad at all. The workout felt good, my throat didn't really bother me so it was a good day.

I'm glad you came out to cross this year. You really bring something extra.

I really appreciate that. I am glad I came out too, it was super fun this past year but I am absolutely stoked for next season!

Man, I even get a hug!? I am a lucky fellow. (I always have to revise my punctuation and spelling before I comment back to you.) #honorsenglishprobs
