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.

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: We had dirt mile repeats we had 6 of them and the goal time was 6:38 and the times went like this 6:24, :34, :34, :24, :21, :14. It was good but by the 6th one I was starting to get a little worn down. Frisbee afterwards with some great future missionaries my day was bound to be good. 

PM: Easy three miles out to arctic circle and I am so proud of Skylar (little bro) for sticking with us the whole time, he is such a stud. Wish he would just run XC and forget football but oh well. The run went well even though it was hot as usual. Lifting went well also, keep doing things so I could stay sweaty, I love that feeling of lifting with sweat running down my face.

AM: I don't know exactly what my mileage was for sure but I am guessing that it was close to 7.5 between the warm up, the workout and the races with kids club. So anyways.. we had our 30/30 workout today and my goal was to beat 30 which I had to really push to get last week. We started and the first 10 don't really phase me. It's the next 20 that are tough. I have to run 152 meters in 30 seconds then I have to recover 76 meters in 30 seconds and it just repeats so it gets tough right around 20. I knew I had it in me to get to 30, I had done it last week I was going to do it again this week. Once we hit 28 I wanted at least 3 more to get 31 and that's what I did. It was a great workout and Matt and Byron owned it as well. Excited for the 5K in Enterprise tomorrow, it should go great. Kids club was fun today with them racing and pushing themselves against the clock, I certainly enjoyed it.

PM: Went out with the bro to run 3 miles and he wasn't feeling it so we took it slow which was fine by me. I finished the last .5 of the run faster so the run was decent. Been a good day now to just get some sleep and be to coaches house by 5am ready to race!

AM: Had to wake up early to hit a 5K at 6:30 up in Enterprise. Met at Coaches house around 5 to get going and we got up there around 6 and we all saw some buses and thought those aren't for us so we headed to a nearby church house to go to the bathroom. Turns out that the buses we saw were for us to head up the canyon three miles to the starting line. We had to hitch-hike a ride to the place to start so we only got like .25 of a mile in for warm up in all of the worry of actually being able to compete in the race. A nice older gentleman gave us a fast ride to where we needed to be so that was good. The air was cool which was definitely a change from what we are used to at morning practice. We started and we wanted Matt and Kyler to go with us (us being Byron and myself). Mile one.. 5:12. Exactly what we wanted for our first mile and we realized that the other two guys had already fallen back so no need to worry about them anymore. Our next mile I stuck with coach as he ran the 10K and Byron was right there as well. As we hit 1.5 I was really putting it in my head that we were half way done. After mile two.. 5:16 coach had said that we needed our last mile the fastest so we needed to catch up to Logan. Byron was a beast and made up that ground really quick and I still sat just a little ahead of coach. It wasn't til about half a mile left that I decided to make my move and I moved up by Byron and Logan and decided I would take the lead and I pushed it to the 3 mile marker.. 5:15. I finished pretty strong I thought, the last mile wasn't the fastest but we had a consistent 5K which was awesome. Very pleased with my time and race. Loving these races we are doing, great confidence boosters. Oh yeah we had a 1-5 sweep from our team so that was sweet. 3 mile cool down with the guys, great 24th.

PM: Easy 3 from Coaches house. It was pretty hot but the run felt good, legs felt alright considering the race this morning. After the run we had a pool party and did some stuff for camp, been a great day. Looking forward to next week for camp!

AM: Ran 6.5 down in hell's hole. Since all the rain poured down hell's hole was in need of repair so we had to do the hill workout up the huge hill. We had 4X100 and 6X30, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Really just had to push a little harder than we would've. A very good workout, feeling great.

PM: 3 miler before I headed out for Brian Head for the weekend.

AM: Up in Brian Head with my family so it took some motivation to get out of the very relaxing cabin to go run. I had a 10 miler today and it was definitely a confidence builder. I had to run up a really long and steep hill right around mile 2 and 3 and it was basically was a slow uphill from there. I thought I would never reach the 5 mile mark to turn around and head down hill. It finally came and for mile 5, 6, 7 and 8 I had sub 7 minute pace, I found some energy and flew down the hills. One of my miles was even sub 6 pace going down the huge hill. By the end I was pretty tired from the altitude and just the long run but it was very rewarding.

AM: 5 miles today and it seemed like a piece of cake comparing to yesterday but there was still a lot of uphill but I actually felt chilly on the run which was so nice so I didn't mind the 5 miles. Great day up in the mountains.
