Running Accomplishments:

Pre-highschool: I loved to run and ran a few small local 5k's, but I did not run much on my own, besides junior high track.

Freshman year: I ran cross country and traied wih the team most of the summer.  When the season started I ran 3 races including Murray Invitational.  I got a huge PR there but after the race my foot hurt and I had a hard time walking. I ran on it for the next week but it was not getting better, so I went to a Sports MD and found out that i had a stress fracture.  Becaue of that injury I missed the rest of the season. Then I ran track for my junior high but did not do extremely well.

Sophmore year: I trained hard over the summer and I got a 3 minute PR on my first race.  I continued to PR, and had a good, injury free season. I ran indoor track an had some good PRs. I ran at simplot and had a great time. I did track and  ran some goodtimes and cut my time down by 15 seconds, I was hoping that I could get low 5's in the mile, but I had fun and was able to race at the steepechase and have a fun time through out the season. At sophmore region I was able to PR in the 800 and I missed my PR in the mile by 2 seconds.

Junior year: I ran a little over 500 miles over the summer, but wasn't improving how I would have liked over the season. I was not consistant at all and was sick for aboout 3 races. I finally had a good race at region and dropped a 46 second pr. Track went well, I went sub-5 in the mile finally and got a PR in the 2 mile pretty easily. I didn't really hit the times I had hoped for throughout the season due to sickness and I just wasn't in it.

PRs:

800: 2:11

1600: 4:56.35

3200: 11:17.47

3 mile: 17:41

5k: 18:07

Short-Term Running Goals:

Cross Country 2016:

Run 650 to 700 summer miles SUCCESS

Low 15's on the 5K and Sub 15 3 mile

Place at region and state

Go to footlocker nationals

Track 2017:

Sub 4:20 mile

Sub 9:15 on the 3200

Sub 2:00 on the 800

Sub 6:25 on steeple chase

Qualify for State, Arcadia, and Great South West, and become the best runner I can be.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Run cross country and track in college. Keep improving and just having fun. I'll probably run an ultra or two for the heck of it and to see if I like them.

Personal:

I'm a Senior at Weber High School. I am LDS and plan on serving a mission before college. I'm a member of The Hobbyjogger Project.

Ran over to practice with the team this morning, my first 2 miles were fast. Im not sure what the first was, but my second was a 5:58, I was just running with the top group and felt pretty good. I ran the rest of the time with Gavin and Holden, I can't remember for sure, but I think we averaged 7:10.  Later tonight I ran 3 miles on the canal road and sprinted up a hill then found some other trails. After I got back I ran a lap around the park.

Total of 4 miles this morning with a 2mile tempo. I ran up to the track, but there was a bunch of people up there, so I ran back home which ended up being a 1.25 mile warmup, quickly changed shoes an started my tempo. My first mile was righ on pace at a 6:30, but I picked it up on the second and ran a 6:07. Cooled down around the park after. Later tonight I did 3.5 on the canal with a little around the park.

Slower long run tonight, I was at high adventure the past 2 days and was not able to run. It just made me realize how much I mised running when I couldn't do it, but it waas probally good because it let my blister start to heal. I was feeling pretty tired and was feeling sorta sick an low on energy, so it definately was not as fast as I was hoping. I've pretty much only eaten starches and simple sugars the past couple of days and have gotten minimal sleep, so it is good getting back home where I can control that stuff a bit better :)
