Addison Hedges Running

6 mile run today. Somewhat painful actually. I dont really know why.

(am)- 3

Track workout today. We did 2x200, 2x400, and 2x600. We started with a half mile warm-up. The 200's were 29's, the 4's were 64/66, and the 600's were 1:44/1:42. Between intervals we jogged the same distance as the interval. Cooled down to 8.5

Moderatelu hard 5 miles today on the canal. It felt good to go easy but still keep a good pace.

Stair workout today. 2 laps of stairs then a 400 on the track. That was considered 1 lap. We ended up doing 8 laps. I trailed Talon the entire workout. It sucked but it hurt so good. The distance was 3.25 miles. Warm-up and cool down got it to 

5 miles in the morning at 6:00 pace. 

Later tonight I decided to run a 2 mile just for fun. Finished in 10:27 in the pitch black. it was fun.

Big mileage day today.

(am)-3 miles

Today was another workout on the track. We did 4x600 and 4x200 with a jog recovery. My splits were 1:39, 1:41, 1:41, and 1:38. the 200's were 28's, a 30, and a 27. 

The warm up and cool down got us to 10. 

Later tonight I did an 800 with my little brother. He's just starting but he could be really fast in High school.

8 mile long run today. I felt pretty good the whole time. Ran with Paul and Henry until the last mile then it was just Henry and I but he dropped off with half a mile to go. (5:59 average pace)

Half mile later tonight with my little brother 

Today was our practice meet 800. We did a 1.5 mile warm up then got going. I finished 3rd to Jake and Talon and also tied my PR. I was pretty happy cause this week has been hard so far. Cooled down with Brayden after. 

.5 with my brother again

Second half of the practice meet was today. Warmed up then ran the mile. We came through 800m pretty slow (2:20) so I decided to just keep up the semi relaxed pace and save energy for big races soon. I got a small negative split and finished in 4:37. 

45 minutes later we raced the 400m. I got a new 1second PR (56) 

Easy 6 miles today to prep for the cougar relays tomorrow. We did a couple strides after. 

Crazy day today. We drove down to learns for the 4x1600m. Of course, it started to get really windy right before we started. My phone said it was 27 mph, so the back stretch was pretty rough. Not a great race at all but you can't change the weather I guess. 

Started with the usual warm up. It was storming pretty bad. There was some killer wind and hail but we still did some repeats. The workout was 8x400m. Splits were 67 each time and I finished with a 60. Jake went super hard and had a last split of 57. We only did a short cool down inside cause it was super cold and we were drenched. 

Long run day today. We did the regular warm up on the track then went for 10 miles. Jake and I went off on our own direction while the others did the Orion loop. Jake and I ended up running through the Weber county fair grounds. It was pretty cold and wet but I had a great run. It was my fastest 10 miles to date (5:56 average) Jake was just a couple minutes behind me. 

Easier day today cause Skyview is coming tomorrow. We did warm ups then went 5 at 6:50 pace. Probably doing the mile, 800 and a 4x400. 

Skyview cam up for the dual meet today. We started out with the mile, and I ran 4:36. I still haven't PR'd since simplot but hopefully I'll get one soon. Next came the 800. It wasn't great but not too bad. I finished in 2:06. Then about 30 minutes later we ran a 4x4. I started off and ran about a 57. I was pretty much just done with the meet at this point so I was glad I was done. It wasn't a hard meet, just not my best. 

Nothing really special today. Went out and did about 6.5 at about 7 minute pace. 

Got up and drove down to the high school and met Jake and Henry. We did a quick 3.75 then did a short workout on the track. They did 6x200 all out but I decided to do 3x400 faster than mile pace and then 2x200 all out. Splits were: 64, 64, 63, 28, 28

We did warm ups then ran .75 miles to lomond view park for a stepping stone. Today we just went 5 to 1. (5min hard, 5 easy down to 1) did my first mike at 5:03 pace which was a solid pace with the big hill. By the end I was at 4 miles, 6:29 average (including easy run time). Once we were done we ran back to the school and stretched. 

Today was the girls part of the Davis super meet. A group of us went down to cheer. All the girls had some really solid races. 

It was rainy and cold so we did our three miles through the Davis halls and a little outside. 

Davis super meet was today. Once we got down there I just layed around and cheered on the boys until the mile. Talon and I were in heat 1. The goal for this meet was sub-4:30 and my first 800 was great (2:13)  but I dropped off during the second half but still finished in 4:31. I finally got a good mile PR. I ended up in 4th behind talon, Connor baller, and Adam wood who had a quick last 400. 

A little later I did a short cool down then went home to get warm again. 

Warmed up with the whole team then went for 9. I ran with Henry the whole way. We were both not really feeling it but we were holding a good pace. Once we hit the last 3 miles and the uphill, Henry dropped off a bit but I kept going cause I wanted to keep up the 6 minute pace. I was pretty sore and tired but it was a good run. 

There wasn't school today but we were supposed to do 4x800 at mike pace with 1:1 recovery. I got to the track and did a warm up. Then of course right as we start the wind kicks up. It got pretty strong and tough to fight through so I cut the workout to 2x800 and 4x400 cause I thought it would be more productive to do more shorter repeats and actually hit the pace instead of doing the actual workout at a slow pace. My splits were: 2:12, 2:18, 66, 65, 65, and 64. It was brutal. The wind sucked and my legs were just tired. 

I decided to just do 6.5 today. I went down to the boat docks on the point by the cemetery then back up and through town. (7:00 if I remember right)

It was nasty weather outside so we played shirt tag with the sprinters then went for an actual short workout. It was an easy day and the pace was pretty slow. 

6 miles with Jake today. We went back up on the little trail we found behind the gravel quarry. It was raining so the whole thing was mud and we both just about ate it several times. We did pick ups every 6 minutes so that didn't help either. Despite almost turfing it 90 times, it was a fun run. 

City-county is tomorrow so we went super easy. We got the boys together and went adventure running. After 1.5 miles and some crazy river crossings and probable trespassing, we turned around and jumped the fence back to the Weber track (except for Brayden because he's super white and can't even pretend to be able to climb a fence)

First day of city-county was today. I only raced the mile today. It was a good race but not my best. I still got a 1 second PR but I need to work on my 3rd lap and my finish.
