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.

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.

AM: had 4 mile repeats this morning. First we warmed up 1.5 miles then got on the track to do the workout. Goal time 5:17. First was 5:19 and felt okay, a little tough. 2nd was 5:16, still wa trying to get into the groove of the time. The next two I felt super good 5:15 and 5:11. It was definitely a good workout. 1.5 cool down. Had weights after, just a great day.

PM: 3.4 around cedar city with some SUU guys. Good easy run!

Nice 5 with Byron around Cedar City. It was hard because of altitude but it was good to get the mileage in!

10 miles today with our usual AT tempo pace (5:27) for 24 minutes. We warmed up around 3 miles I believe then just got into it. My watch decided to be dumb today and not link to gps so I just kept a stopwatch rolling to make sure pace was okay. Byron had the watch so we knew what we were doing. Started off good, super relaxed and the first loop (1.5) went by fast. Then Byron.. Good ole Byron had to relieve himself so I was solo. I took the watch and pushed to the pace making sure I stayed on. I actually did stay on and did a full loop without Byron. He joined back in and we kept the pace rolling and I really worked on pushing that last minute hard. I averaged anywhere from 5:27 to 5:31. It was a super good workout and I've been loving the fast stuff. Excited for good things to come. Cooled down to 10.

AM: nice and easy 3 with the boys!

PM: Had 5 miles with some hill work. It was the same hill as last Thursday. We had 1X800 and 2X400. We warmed up 2 miles then got right into the 800. (2:24) next were the 400's. I really wanted under 1:08 because I remember being there last year. I pushed super hard. (1:04) then my next one was tough because recovery time wasn't too long. I really had to dig the last 100. (1:05) it was a super good workout! One step closer to an awesome track season!

Went out with a good group of the team to attempt our LT tempo solo. 5:02-5:07.. It was tough. I ran 2.7 in 15 minutes which was around a 5:26 average. Not the greatest tempo but I can guarantee a better one next Saturday. 6 miles total!
