I'm currently a student at BYU majoring in neuroscience. I ran cross country and track in high school at Snow Canyon High.

Good recovery run in prep for tomorrow's run.  I woke up at 5:15 for my run, but felt absolutely exhausted.  I thought for a minute how I could make these miles up and still have enough recovery time to run 18 miles tomorrow (and hit 60 on the week), and I realized my last class ends at 11 today!  So, I went back to sleep for a total of 9 hours of sleep last night.  

 Ran after my Biology 120 class.  Six miles, which is about 50 minutes, which is from my dorm to Foothills Drive and back.  It was tiring, and I'm worried about how I'll do tomorrow.  I need to get a great night's rest.

Food wise, I really, really need to be careful what I'm eating.  One donut ONLY on Saturday after a long run.  I kinda ate two this week, which wasn't smart.  Breakfast from now on is Wheaties or Life, with two pieces of toast.  Lunch is going to be pasta or a large salad.  Dinner will be pasta or another similar, high-carb food.  One of the cafeteria stations provides pasta for lunch and dinner everyday, so I should be taking advantage of those high calories meals.
