Desert Chiva Running

7am- First day officialy on the team. We ran 30 minutes up towards maverick. My knees hurt but it was a good run.

7am- Ran 30 minutes up to the desert (the land of the chivas). I kept up with the team but I almost fell off the pack but I stayed up with them. My knees didn't hurt that much so that was just awesome. Running club after was pretty killer, it was hard keeping up with the little boys.

7am- 35 minutes, went past el firestation and looped around. It was great. Went to the rec center after and taught macen how to play basketball. Good day overall.

4:30 am- me and nick got up early and ran before the trek thing, it was good but i definitly didnt get enough sleep.

6am- got up early again to go run. We went really slow. I nearly froze.

3:30pm- Ran 40 minutes with hard finish and it really sucked. It was at least 105 degrees and we ran through deep sand and hard steep hills. Some parts I felt like i could have walked faster. It was really killer. I really tried to push hard but I nearly passed out for real but I didnt want to get 3rd degree burns on the burning sand. It was great.

7am- 38 minutes or so run with 10 minute tempo like 6 minute pace. Im not sure how many total minutes cuz I didnt have a watch, but the guys came in like 2 minutes after me and jerry so yeah. It was good hard run, Matt really helped me alot during the tempo to not fall off the pace, it helped alot. I probly would have fallen back without him. Hes a good dude. No problems with leg pains so that is good. Im feeling stronger now that Im running more regulary.

7am- Ran easy 30 minutes about 3.9 miles. My knees hurt a little bit but they got better as we went along. Running club after we played some capture the flag with the children (my team destroyed) then had them do a relay to scout out the faster kids.

3pm- Another easy 30 minutes about 4 miles.It was hot. We went to sandburgs pond. Some idiots said nice shorts and they call us qweers which we werent the ones checking out other guys but whatever it was funny. I had some trouble trying to keep up with the team but after a swim in the pond I felt quite refreshed and ready for action so that was good. Had some knee pain but not bad.

7am- Easy 35 minute run, we went around the hood and then on the baseball fields, the grass was really nice.

7am- 40 minutes with 6 minute cruisers. Ran 6.2 miles. The first 2 repeats I kept up with the team. The third one I dropped back quite a bit. It was hard once I was off the group to push myself. Good workout.

2pm- 30 minute run with nick, paul, andrew, and cam. About 3.5 mile run down around sanbergs and the park. It was like 100 degrees, it felt tons better than running in 105.

7am- 45 minute run with strong finish. We went to coral canyon ran on a dope trail and made a loop. My IT band still hurt but not as bad. Stayed up with the group the whole time. It was great.

6pm- Me and my brother went for a easy 30 minute run around the neighborhood in between episodes of 24.

7am- Ran 40 minutes with a 10 minute tempo. I felt really great on the tempo. I stayed out in front most of the time and I felt like I could have done 15 minutes. It was a really strong little tempo you know. My knee hurt a little on the cool down but not bad like im gonna die. 

7am- Ran easy 30 minutes 3.7 miles w/.5 grass warmup. Ran up mainstreet into desert chiva territory with the lvl 3 boys 15 minutes then flipped it and ran back. My knee hurt a little on the way back but no problems really bad. Nice easy run.

12:30pm- Ran another 30 minutes 3.6 miles from pauls house to sanbergs pond and back again and went for a swim. My IT band killed on the way back and it sucked but otherwise it was nice run. The weather was really pretty good not super hot like usual. Watched the world cup after at pauls house. It was dope.

7am- 45 minute run 25 on the road and 20 on the baseball field grass. My knees hurt bad and its really not fun. Ive been icing and streching and stuff but not much difference. The weather was good though and the baseball field grass was nice.

7am- Good workout, first we ran around the hood to get some minutes in, then went back to washington elementary and did speed intervals total was 7 miles and 52 minutes or something. We did 4-5-6-5-4 minute intervals at like 5:40 pace or so with 3 minute cool down in between. It was good hard workout and I really felt relaxed.

12pm- Nice 30 minute run out to the pond again. It was nice and my knees were tons better than yesterday. It was I think 3.6 miles and after we watched some world cup. It was great.

7am- 45 minute run with strong finish. We ran from sullivan park down around shinob kibe and it was a good run.

10am- Me and nick went for a nice easy 30 minute run in the desert. It was great.

7am- 45 minute run w/15 minute tempo. it was great

7am- 35 minute run with the 6 minute test as well. From the start I was feeling pretty tired and really my legs just felt dead. On the 6 minute test I was nervous because i felt so tired and it really took my confidence. In the end I felt I could have done better but you know too late to change it.

8:20pm- Throughout the day I had 3 rough basketball games so I really had to force myself to get out and run cuz I was just ready to go to sleep. After I got going though It was ok. I got like 3.6 miles it was a 30 minute run out in the desert of the chiva. First run in my new Cascadias.

7am- 50 minute run 30 on road 20 on grass. I was super tired and it ended up being a hard run although we went pretty slow. Basketball is really making it hard to get runs in but I do it anyways you know cuz im a beast

9:30am- I missed practice today because I had a basketball game at 7:30 so I went for a run out in the desert. 45 minute run w/10 minute strong finish. I went through the desert and joined onto the tortoise trail and ran along that and flipped it at like 24 minutes. I felt really good no knee or leg pain except for extreme fatigue from doin so much stuff this week. I still even have 2 more basketball games today so this is a really rough week.

10am- went on the barrel roll trail. This week has been brutal.
