Blake Bennions running

Had a lot of fun on the gully longer run today, so good to run with those guys! My body is pretty destroyed from the last month of my mission so I didn't run the fastest gully run of my life but I had a good time and its one step closer to getting back in shape so its awesome. Depending on how sore I am tomorrow I might just do an easy run, probably want to give my body another week before I take on an Alta track workout, I don't want to know what kind of times I would right now haha

A hilly 4-5 miles but I will just say 4, I ran from Brighton through a neighborhood and eventually I ended up at the rec center and then I finished that loop back to Brighton with the giant hill going up 2300e which was tough. Nice run, really need to start taking asthma medication!

I ran a nice 4 miles or so with Cubby Zach and Aaron, it felt pretty good, I was tired but it was easier than the past few days haha. Then I ran a 300m hard with Read and Brandon, that was fun! It felt good to go fast even though fast right now isn't so fast, it will be soon! As I run consistently it will get easier and feel better. The plan right now I to just do aerobic workouts and getting my base back. As I was leaving the school today I walked past a group of my favorite freshmen from last year who have grown and changed a ton, hardly recognized them, but that was really fun!

HUGE NEWS:Coach Murphy is going to be featured as one of the 12 best high school coaches for track and cross country in 2016. I'm really happy about that, he deserves it! Can't wait to read the book he will be in!

I'm grateful I've been able to be coached by him, he's helped reach some huge goals. If any runner follows his instructions they're going to end up with a lot of success and more than that, a lot of skills to stay healthy for the rest of their lives!

Pretty easy run, I ran at the track at Brighton for part and a park for the rest. Its a very beautiful night and perfect temperature!
