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.

We ran on the trails at Rainbow Gardens this morning. Me and Add got over to some viewpoint with a bench and then turned around for a total of 6. Later tonight I met up with Jake and we did another easy 6.25.

Woke up early and ran over to McGriff park for a fartlek. I did a 5-4-3-2-1 with 1:1 rest. My average pace for the fast was a 5:40, and 7:30 for the slow. My first 5 minutes was a bit quick at 5:20 pace, but I felt good. After the workout I stopped to talk to a kid on my team who had just got there, and then saw Bayleigh running on canal, so I ran a mile with her and then went home. With the warmup and cooldown it totaled 9.75 miles. When I got home I did a couple (2.5) 10-15 minute ab workouts from my moms p90X workout things. Later tonight I did another easy 3. I've felt really low on energy today, I dont think I ate enough breakfast and lunch and my calories just ran out. Ill maker sure not to make that mistake again.

I met Jake over at Lomond View elementry for a long run. We ran aroudn talking and picking fruit for 9 miles, and it was fun. Long runs are really boring to do alone, so I'm glad he wanted to come. We averaged 6:54. Later tonight I did an easy 3 with Nate, Henry, and Derrick.
