Desert Chiva Running

615am- 30 minutes easyyyyyyy

3pm- Since I am running at SC JV meet tomorrow I only did 3 repeats instead of 4. They were all quality but Im glad I didnt have to do 4 cuz the 3rd one I fell off like 5 seconds. My 300s were both sub 45

615am- I didnt want to get tired for the JV meet this afternoon so I only went 20 minutes. Nobody judged me for it too. thumbs up

4pm- Snow Canyon JV meet- 1600m

We warmed up on a dope trail for like 20 minutes or so. This race was quite slow. Me and Dallen and Mitch were all together for the first couple laps. Then we slowed down way on the 2nd lap. I totally should have won this race but I guess I wasnt in a fast mindset because it was just basicly me and Dallen running a workout together. Dallen kicked pretty hard on the last 400 and I wasnt ready. I nearly caught him in the last 200 but not quite. I thought we were going faster than we were but nope. No speeed

Later I did High Jump like a beast in my jumping spikes (aka my regular spikes). Somehow we talked the lady into starting at 4'10'' instead of 5'0''. My first jump- cleared it no problem. Macen had his gopro and Caroline was supposed to be videoing us but I could tell she was not getting it done so I gave it to Nicole instead. At 5'0' Paul told me to do the slow clap and so I did. A huge crowd had gathered and the clapping sent adrenaline coursing through my veins. I cleare 5 feet but then I didnt clear 5'2''. Whatever man it was still awesome. And Nicole ended up getting a pretty sick video too.

3pm- 4x800s today. I practiced making my second lap faster than my first. It was good.

630am- Nick left me for the morning run. yep. I was going to just go baack to bed but dad cussed me out so I went for a nice 32 minuter. It ended up being really nice run, very peacefull. I got ready for school nice and slow and ate plenty of cereal and such. Then mom told me she wasnt gonna give a ride and mi padre was already gone. Same with the bus they were all long gone. So yolo I ended up walking the 4 miles to school. I aint gonna lie though it was real nice weather I quite enjoyed it. All I missed in first period was The Lion King so I basicly missed nothing. 

3pm- Pre race shoe run. Epic stuff. We stopped at sulivans park and we saw a turtle, captured a dead fish in a bag, and also Brian captured a duck. Then he threw it into the air to fly but it was apparently a flightless bird and it hit the concrete pretty hard. It waddled away fine though but still that was bad. We ran up the hill and left the dead fish on the guys doorstep and knocked the door and ran away. Then I petted a huge eagle in somebodies driveway. On the way back we stopped at Sandbergs pond and swam and it was great. When we got back Nick went shopping and I watched the soccer game. I called dad for a ride because I didnt know how long they were going to be getting stuff for tomorrow. Bad idea because they showed up the same time he did so he wasted a trip. Im straight up pumped for the PV Invite tomorrow.

615am- We had a nice quick paced 30 minutes. And also we had some good donuts.

1pm-8pm- Today was the Pine View Invitational so I ditched school at lunchtime and walked over to the high school with Jaxon and Brianna. By the time we arrived there was already a ton of people at the track. Coach let me run the clock and everybody said Mr. Miller was going to do the annoucing but he never showed up so I did all of that as well. Needless to say I screwed up some things but I got the hang of it after a while. Also I gave a shoutout to my big bro right before his race and he PRed so I think I did alot of good. Towards the end I was messing up a bit because I was doing a lot of things at once and also theres always a bunch of idiots chillin in the box because they think that they should be allowed to (the reason I use such strong language is because said noobs took all my oreos and gummy worms). But yeah I got pretty good at announcing stuff. After a succesful day 1 of the meet me and Nick got pulled over on the way home and thats always fun.

930pm- I was stuck all day in the press box running the timers and making announcments so I got in a nice late night 20 minute shake out run. Also I stretched and got pumped for my race.

11am- Pine View Invite- 800m

Since I am now an experienced annoucer/timer coach made me run the press box but I left after the 300m hurdle finals to go warm up. I hurried and drank my Mt Dew kickstart (with coconut water) so that Id be on an intense caffeine buzz during my race. Me Cam and Jason warmed up around the DI loop, idk where Skylar was. We got down on the field, strided out and threw water on our faces and stuff.

The gameplan for this race was pretty straight forward: take the first lap as it comes and hit the second lap hard as a mutha. My beautiful Mt Dew got me though the first lap decent but with so much people I still was near the end of the pack. I could see my teamates up in the pack further and that was a little discouraging. I pushed all the doubt out of my face and coming in to the second lap I moved to the outside and started picking my way thought the pack. Coming down the back stretch I was starting to get hardcore boxed in so as soon as I saw a gap I shoved myself passed people. It was getting pretty physical and as I broke through the pack I got a decently hard shove in the back from some kid which gave me a nice boost coming into the final 200m. I pulled out a pretty sick kick for the last 200 and I gave it all I had. I aint gonna lie, that last 100m was pure hell. I ended up passing up like 3/4ths of the guys in my heat that 2nd lap, finishing 5th in my heat and 18th overall. It was a pretty good race and I can tell that I went all-out because I threw up every bit of water that I tried to drink (hopefully they emptied the garbage in the press box).

I took a nice nap and just chilled in the box for the rest of the meet. I got a sick new pair of SGs from the lost and found, nobody claimed them, I didnt straight up steal them. The lenses are very reflexiony. After the meet we went to GoSnow and watched Starwars and played James Bond at mi casa. Gotta say, today was a good day.
