6.2 miles at 6:20 pace to celebrate BYU upsetting NAU today! So much fun to watch, monumental day for Utah running. Pretty exciting we get 2 more years of Conner mantz running at NCAA.

I actually averaged 6:17 for the the run but it works. I also watched Karleighs dance performance, bgsu hockey, and OSU beat Penn State. Good day. Not nearly enough work on my papers... Oh well, there's always tomorrow and Monday. Really all of next week.

I really want to run under 2:40:00 in the marathon eventually. But for my first race the goal is 2:55- safely under BQ standard. Slowly working my way up to 2/3 10 mile runs per week. Well it will probably end up being at one or two long runs and one or two shorter runs.

Anyways, today was good. Life is good, I'm happy. School is stressful and sometimes I feel like I'm just nothing, but that can be motivating. I'll get there.
