| Location: Huntsville,UT,United States Member Since: May 25, 2015 Gender: Male Goal Type: Other Running Accomplishments: Pre- High School- I did a few local races, such as 4th of July/charity 5ks. I mainly just ran for fun, and to get a feel for running. I didn't do a lot of training or workouts until Jr. High track started. As high school got closer, i started to get more serious.
Freshman Year- I decided to run xc for Weber High School. I ran very little over the summer, and had a rough start to the season. Despite the rough start, I got faster and was able to run on the varsity team more often than not. I dropped my 3 mile time to 17:04, but didn't make it to State. I finnished the season at Footlocker west regionals. I didn't prepare well and placed 22nd in the freshman race. (4th from Utah) Indoor track started and I wanted to break 5 really bad, but ended up running 5:02 at Simplot. When outdoor track started I was really anxious to win. I practiced with the high school as much as possible, despite running for Snowcrest Jr. High. I won a few outdoor meets, and dropped my mile time to a 4:40. At the district meet I took 2nd in the mile to Bronson Winter. During the 800m, I got a PR of 2:07.
Sophomore Year- I put in a good summer of running and was super excited for xc. I was now the 2nd man on the team. I had some really great races and continued to improve. I finished the regular season with a 16:00 5k. At footlocker west, i had a good race but not quite where i had hoped. Indoor came around and i had some nice PR's before i got bursitis in my left knee. Got better and transitioned to outdoor where the season started off well. After running my PR of 4:23 1600m, i got really sick and never got back to 100% during the season. I ended up at 9:41 for 2 miles, and 2:05 800m. I didn't have the performance I wanted at state, but im ready for the next year.

400m- 55, Sophomore track 2016
800m- 2:05, sophomore track 2016

Qualify for Footlocker Nationals Long-Term Running Goals: Keep improving and getting faster. Train hard and not get burned out. Basically just enjoy the run. Personal: I will be a Junior at Weber High School this year. I'm LDS, and will be serving a 2 year mission after High School. I love animals, hiking/ fishing with my dad, and running with my friends.

| | 8x 800m repeats at Shady lane park today. I was supposed to be hitting 2:34's. We got started and it was really hurting so I took a 2:1 break instead of 1:1 in between the 4th and 5th repeat. I ended up being faster than my time despite the pain. My splits ended up being: 2:24, 2:27, 2:30, 2:30, 2:32, 2:33, 2:30, and 2:28.

We were doing ladders: 400m, 800m, 1200m, 800m, 2x400m. I was feeling good and hit some good paces. 1:06, 2:24, 3:44, 2:26, 1:05, and 1:01. We finished up with a short cool down.

| | We ran down to 1050 and then started a 2 mile "chase". Nobody was feeling very well, and all of our times were slow. I died on the climb up to mountain road and finished in 11 minutes.

| | We have school off for the rest of this week, so a few of us just met up and went as a little group. McKenna, Gavin, Brayden and I went on a quick run down to highway 89 with 4 one minute pick ups. Jake biked along side us because he injured his knee/leg. Didn't get an average pace on it.

Utah State XC Championships (3 Miles) 00:16:06, Place overall: 52, Place in age division: 29 | | State championships were today. I was pretty nervous all day, i think that didn't help my race. I ended up placing 29th in 5A, missing my goal of top 21. Talon had a great race and took 2nd in 5A. As a team we missed our goal of 3rd but ended up getting 5th. I'm kind of bummed about my race but it will be good experience for next year.
On to Foot Locker.
