AM- 4 with connor from my house up to state street and back legs felt wasted and I dont think connor was feeling fresh either bc it felt like I was pushing the pace which never happens lol. 7:15 average pace, he hooked me up with kneaders for my bday after so that was lit, we reminisced on the old XC days which lately is all that has been on my mind, so it has been hard to stay as focused on track, but at the same time motivates me to make the most of what I have left. All you young bloods make the most of what you got because it will come to an end a lot quicker then you think

PM- Got to the track at 7:45 before everyone else and the sun was still up and setting so I did a mile on the track by myself and felt freaking good, I love running by myself in the evening it gives me time to think. Then everyone else got there and I finished my warm up down by the rodeo grounds and back on main street at night so it was all lit up and that was cool, got 4 more miles in ap was 7:30, my legs felt like I could go all night. Then we started the workout, was suprised by riley ryan and the twins, as they came to watch so that was nice of them #team #fam. The guys that came to work out were connor, nathan, easton, josh, chris, satchell, big t,  and me. Awesome group. We did 6x400 splits were 66,70,68,70,70,71. Then we did 3x200 splits were 30,31,31. Doing it under the lights was awesome, shout out to jamie for setting it up, also shout out to Jhoan for coming and playing some lit tunes and taking some sick pics, hopefully we get on runnerspace. After the workout we did a cooldown with coach on the track, which was cool, because I had never run with her before, so that was way fun. All in all and awesome day and I have a ton of confidence going forward. Thanks to everyone for the birthday shoutouts I love yall.

Ha! I had an Asa Nielson in my mission. Barcelona. I didn't even read your blog entry. Sorry.

Ok, I read it. Happy birthday. If your dad's name is Asa and he served in Barcelona, tell him I said hola. He'll know what it means.

Dude no way that is my dad!

My mom went to Barcelona too

Awesome! I'll tell you what. Your dad was one of the coolest missionaries that I had the pleasure to serve with. What made him cool was he was genuine. While most of us were fake, he kept it real. Great guy. I'll have to find some pictures. We weren't companions, but we lived together in the same apartment.

Spencer - what's your mom's maiden name?
