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: 3 miles easy with the crew. Pretty chilly... Coming prepared tomorrow!

PM: 4Xmile repeats. First we warmed up 1.5 miles. Then got right into it. Moved up to 87% from 85%. This means I had a new goal time.. From 5:17 up to 5:10. I had been preparing myself for this and knew it wouldn't be too bad. First was actually quite simple 5:15, second wasn't bad either 5:11. Third was a little tougher because my last lap had to be strong but 5:08. The last felt good and I was able to put some speed into it while still staying relaxed 5:02. Very good workout! Loved it. Cooled down 1.5. 8 total!

AM: 3 miles easy with the boys. Good run!

PM: AT tempo day. Pace goal: 5:27-5:32. 30 minutes. Soooo since Byron and I had a little longer of minutes we just kind of did our own thing and I would just like to say that he is a stud and that I'm grateful for him to be my running buddy. 2.75 warm up then started on our tempo loop, eased into the pace. Kept it solid till about 4 minutes left and Coach was a saint and joined us and we picked it up big time to finish strong and man that felt good. Average pace was 5:32. Not too shabby at all. Ended at 8 miles (counting warm up) so 5.25 of tempo and we just cooled to 10. Awesome day.

AM: easy but speedy 3 miles. Maybe it wasn't that fast but it felt like it.

PM: Old man hills. 3X800. Warmed up 2 miles to the bottom of the hill and we started our first. This first felt weird because no one was by me and I couldn't hear anyone and I let that affect me, I thought maybe I was going too fast. 2:31. 2nd one was better, Preston Warby is a beast and came flying by me in the first 400 and kept building a gap so gutsy, love it. 2:27. 3rd one I wanted to hit a 2:25, so I went out strong but comfortable till 400 left and I just gave it all I had left. 2:27. Cooled to 6. Great workout, enjoyed it quite a bit!
