A.M. Participated in the Intermountain Collegiate Mathematics Competition. I got 5 out of seven problem on the exam, plus a partial solution for a sixth one. I think I have a decent shot at first place, based on historical data and the performance of my BYU teammates.

1 P.M.

It was a hilly XC race. I was in fourth for most of the race, then caught a high-schooler on the hills of the last mile. I was then passed by John Coyle, who outkicked me, putting me in fourth place. It was about what I was expecting. I didn't feel weak, but I didn't feel strong. I think this puts me in fourth place for the circuit, which is nice.

Later.

Eight mile cool-down with my Dad. Talked about the race, the problems from the competition, and the most recent Project Euler problem.
