10.4 miles with Tayte up an awesome trail from Albion middle school up through little cottonwood canyon. It was a really nice course! I didn't hear about a practice today but also felt like I should do a longer run. Also did some plyometrics and core. Ready for a speed workout tomorrow possibly.

Ran with Tayte, Cubby, and Ashton to the Draper temple and back, we also did a little extra so we could get to 10. Our average pace was about 7:00 which is good! Today was an awesome day, and I just found out I raised my ACT score 3 points! I also got a pretty good gpa this past quarter (good for me). So not only did I improve in cross country, I improved in every area of my life! The winter is always a rough season but there's something about the long cold miles at high elevation that gives me confidence!

19 400s today, I ran them in 70-73. It was fun, it was hard when we switched directions though! 5 miles worth of 400s, sweet! I though we were going to do a max effort the last one so I held back from doing 68s the last 5 but we ended up not doing the 20th one. I'm tired, nice workout!

Am- 5 miles

Pm- tired again, 8 miles with 2 miles hard in the middle. I almost fell into a rocky ditch type thing on the side of a sidewalk because it was winding down and I was going to fast, I ran off the sidewalk, took two steps on the uneven dirt/rocks and barely got my next step on the sidewalk, if I'd missed I would've fallen down a hole and got hit on the sidewalk so I was really happy about that. Easily going to run over 60 miles this week, I could do 70 if I really wanted to and ran 15 tomorrow. I'm not sure if there's a 5k tomorrow or we are just running a liberty park.

Nice run with the team at liberty park, the leaves were really awesome today! Now I have to do campaign service stuff. Highest mileage I've ever done, I could 70 with a 4 mile run tonight! My body is tired and I'm super busy today but if I get home early enough tonight I might go on one.
