| 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.

| | Easy run today to get back into it. We ran up 500 West to the top, then on some trail along the base of Ben Lomond, and back to weber. Average pace was pretty messed up due to all the fences we hopped...

| | Hill repeats today at Lomond view park. We ran over there as a warm up then did 12x 200ish meter repeats up the hills. I was pretty stiff but did all of mine under 50.

| | Ran a total of 9 miles for the fundraiser. They were all fairly fast paced. It was also colder than I ever want to experience ever again.

| | Today I decided to go for a short run up Middle Fork on the 4.5 mile loop. It's incredibly steep and rocky but I ended up smashing my previous best time and got an average pace of 7:09. After the run I did some more hill repeats to make sure that my quads were completely destroyed.

| | Did 8x800m on the track today. It was super cold and windy so it really kind of hurt but I averaged about 2:31s. Oh and we had a short warm up and cool down.

| | We did a fairly easy little Indian run today with Talon, Brayden, McKenna, Henry, and Keaton. It was nice to go somewhat easy and it was a fun run.

| | Today was a 5 to 1 minute stepping stone (5min hard, 5 easy, 4 hard etc.) at Lomond view park. I was feeling pretty good and lapped everyone at least once, but that big hill was killer. I'm pretty sure I ran up it more today than I did last week when we did repeats up it.

| | Went on a long run up 500 and over to the pass on the power line road at the base of Ben Lonond. Talon was hurting so he rode the bike again, so I was leading again. It was a tough run considering the first 3 miles are very steep but it hurt so good and I held a really good pace.

| | Easy 5 miler with some of the guys. Jake, Brayden and I met up with Talon at Lee's, then bj thought he was all cool cause he fed a duck, so i of course had to show him how it's done and I caught one with my bare hands ;) (And in case you were wondering, yes it was able to fly)

footlocker Chase (3 Miles) 00:16:47 | | Mile warm up/ cool down. We ran the trial on the course up 500 west then along the canal. I ran it in 16:47, so pretty disapointing for a 3 mile but I think that was due to my sinus infection.

| | Today was a pretty easy 4 miler to be ready to race tomorrow.

Charity Turkey Trot (3.107 Miles) 00:00:00, Place overall: 1, Place in age division: 1 | | I decided to run a charity turkey trot in the valley today. Turns out it was really laid back and they didn't even have an official time going so i don't really know my time. It was still lots of fun. 2nd place was a kid from Davis...yuck. I beat him by several minutes, so i guess you could say Davis was sufficiently slayed.
