6am- 4 miles just like evryday

3pm- Time Trial

I got a PR by one second which is alright but not amazing considering I set my previous record in cross season. I wasnt expecting much for this race since ive missed quite a few runs in the past week because I had my wisdom teeth out. Lap 1 was 108 and I really cant help letting that first lap be fast so whatever. Lap 2 I chilled out so I could hit the 3rd and 4th laps really hard. I ended up with 225 after 2 laps and there was about a 15 meter gap between me and Jake Preston and Mitch. I could hear Paul yelling to make a freaking surge and catch them but I was totally already doing that anyways. I closed that gap pretty easily with my 3rd lap surge and lap 4 I was right with those guys. The last 300 I passed Mitch and Preston and ended up finishing right next to Jake. 448 is decent but I definitly took a hit on my time because my expectations were really low. If I can just get myself to get rid of any expectations and just let loose and go all out from start to finish then I think I will be able to easily break 440 this year.

9am- Dog Town Half

So today was good. I had a good race despite the fact that nobody was handing me little paper cups of water all the time. I rode the bus right behind Aaron Metler and that was cool but I was all alone for the ride cuz Nick and Cam sat together and nobody else wanted to sit by me. I saw a dead cat and also a dead rabbit in the road on the way over. We warmed up like 5 minutes and then listened to some hardcore rap to psych myself in. The first couple miles were good and I was going like 423 pace according to my watch. The leaders were pretty far in head and I was in a pack with Prston Andrew Kade and some other fast guy. On the detour in the neighborhoods I got some random knee pain and fell off that group. I was really worried about my knee because I was only like 3 miles in but after like 400 meters I was fine so whatever. I was feeling pretty good and in a nice rythym and I was kind of expecting Jake to catch up to me so I could run with him but he didnt catch up so I was all alone. I passed Kade going down through the canyon of coral and I was quite surprised that he had lasted that long with those guys. On the way down to the Hell Hole I could see Preston and the other guy had broken away from Andrew and all the way through the Hell Hole I was reeling Andrew in. I caught up to him at the boardwalk and we ran together untill after Sullivan Park where my dad got me some water then I broke away from him and never saw him again. I settled into a good fast pace and then my dad got me some more water. Coach came and talked to me right before the hill by Jakes house. He told me that I could catch the guys in front of me just keep it rolling up the hill and kill it on the downhill. So thats what I did. But the guys in front of me were not as weak as I would have liked which was unfortunate. The last couple miles I just focused on making my strides longer and faster untill the finish. Winning my age group was fun and I beat my time from last year by like 8 minutes. It was real fun. But yeah half marathons make me way tired.

615am- Man today was a miracle from heaven. When I woke up their was snow falling through the air. Running in it however, was not a miracle from heaven. It froze my face and gave me brain freezes and such. It was really sucky. 

3pm- Today we started decatholon to determine the overall best athelete. Before we did that though, we ran around the track like 500 times or so. We did the 400 and shot put today and I beasted in the 400 with a 1:00:52. Shot put I was granted the honor of being in the 21+ group throwing an amazing 24 9. Wow. I should be a thrower.

615am- Well this morning Nick wasnt feeling like doing a morning run so I had to get a run from my father. We did 30 minutes out past arctic circle and today nobody even showed up only like me, Cam, Preston, and Andrew and thats about it. 

3pm- Today was round 2 of decatholon events. We warmed up to DI and my hair was blowing in the wind wierd and it bugged the frick out of me like I was freakin out. Anyways we did more laps on the track reverse indian run and people kept getting but hurt that I wasnt staying in line and then they harrassed me so I punched some guys. I wore my skin tight tank today to minimize wind resistance in the 300m hurdles and it definitly helped. In my heat it was pretty much just me and Jake battling it out for 1st. It was a pretty intense sprint to the finish but then I rolled my ankle right before the second to last hurdle and I ran straight through it and I hit my shins pretty hard on that poor hurdle. Jake took the W but next time its all me. I totally would have won if it wasnt for that. After that dissapointing event (in which I got a time of 52.37) we did javelin and thats always fun cuz it makes me feel like a spartan warrior. My form needs some work but I threw a decent 74' 6''. I feel like Im in decent shape to place well in this decathalon. 

This track season I am planning on blogging alot more and being more dedicated to my writing so from now on I am going to be doing good blog entrys I think.

3pm- Today I happened to not do a morning run because of various pain in my body. I got like an extra hour of sleep and it resulted in a great day. To kick off round 3 of decathalon we did some 110 hurdles and I took second in my heat with a time of something I actually forgot. Not very impressive placing though cuz my heat was no bueno. Man hurdles are really fun, I wish I was good at them. After that we ran a bunch of laps to get minutes in then we headed over to do the 200. That race was decent but I wasnt really feeling explosive and fast I only got a 27.27 but it was fun. Then we ran some 1200 loops and 800 loops and half of a 1200 then backwards for a fourth of a lap then a backwards 800 loop and we went to the high jump. By this time my inner thigh and calf were in lots of pain and I was sick of running on them so I stopped my time. Yesterday I was getting way pumped for high jump and so I was totally ready to jump like 8 feet. It is very fun to watch people fail in high jump ;) hillarious stuff right there. I had some decent jumps and people were not understanding that 3 strikes and your done so waiting in line took forever. Then it happened. We were at like 5 feet and some guy (I will not name him) landed on the bar and broke it. Since Jake broke the bar last year I will not be suprised if coach gets extremely furious when he finds out it got broke again. Anyways we will be continuing that event tomorrow after it gets duck taped. Gotta say, today was a great day.

3pm- Pretty garbage day today. Still no morning run cuz my body just feels really beatup and stuff. We went straight to round 4 of decathalon- discus and 100 and long jump- without any warmup. I threw like a 55' 6" in discus. I didnt get a second try because Trevor didnt want to let anybody have second trys. Then we did 100 and I won my heat with a time of 13.48. It was fun to watch Jacob and Samson race eachother cuz their both pretty freakin fast. After that I went and did some long jump and got 15' 1" (jumping off my wrong foot both tries but whatever). Coach brought out the high jump and unfortunately I couldnt make it over 5' 2". I need to warm up before going straight to 5' 2". My last attempt I landed on the bar and let me tell you that is no fun. My back hurts like heck. After we finished up with all the fun stuff we headed over to the sprinter hills and did 5 of those and ran straight back so I didnt get much mileage today but hopefully that will help my body recover from feeling so garbage.

615am- My legs still do not feel great but I went to the morning run anyway. Apparently we have picked up the pace on these again so we got all way down to Starbucks and I was tired. Some of the guys were going to the state basketball tournament so they did their Kosmin but I didnt go out and watch them.

3pm- Today we did the Kosmin and it was hardcore. We warmed up around DI and I forgot to start my watch and that sucked. My legs were a bit tired from the increased pace of the morning run but not to bad. The 800 guys went first and I marked for my brother which was nice cuz I didnt have to move far from the start line. After that I shook my legs out and got ready for my Kosmin. I got a nice start out in lane 4 and the first lap I was pretty close to the 400 mark, the only person in front of me was Andrew. Round 2 I was getting tired and I could feel that #3 and 4 were going to be torture. On the 3rd round I was dropping further back from Andrew and Jake was right behind me. On the 4th round I just tried to go for it but by then my legs were to dead to get a decent kick. Usually I can pull a beast kick out of all the pain at the end of a race but my legs had nothing in them at all, it was a pretty helpless feeling. Jake ended up passing me and I got like 1465 I think. Pretty beast workout, it always freaking destroys my legs.

4pm- This morning I did my eagle scout project which was planting like 200 trees by the river. It rained and it was muddy and really fun. Me and my dad and my brother went for a run up Dino Cliffs but my dad was to fast for us and Nick was hanging back like 20 seconds so really I ran alone. After a couple miles my ankle started hurting a little. Then it started to really hurt. I was really struggling like I could barely stand on it and I cant even describe the pain I was in. Once we got to the sand mountain trail it was nice cuz the sand made a nice landing cushion. But then we got to the downhill part and it started hurting again. I was nearly in tears cuz we still had like 4 miles left. But whatever I started my tempo with Nick and my ankle stopped hurting. Wierd stuff. We tempoed all the way home and then I imediatly went and iced it and watched some Parks and Rec. Beast show by the way hillarious stuff right there.
