Long-Term Running Goals:

After my mission (tentatively June 2017-June 2019), which will be two years of virtually no running, I want to build my fitness back up stronger than it ever was before. Then when I think I am ready I may attempt for a spot on the USU roster again. We'll see how long I have to do that based on age and eligibility and stuff. If I don't ever do it that's fine, I'll still have a lot of fun with running. Some times I want to beat someday:

15:30 5K 

1:10 HM

2:40 Marathon

I have a fantasy in my mind of really breaking through in the marathon and making the olympic trials but we'll see about that haha. That would honestly be a dream come true. I definitely want to run the Boston Marathon at least once. Also maybe when I'm old but not too old I might try a 100 miler to qualify for Western States. 

 

 

Personal:

Freshman at Utah State University. I still have not chosen a major. Just graduated from Logan High School in May 2016. One thing I enjoy aside from running is music, weather it's playing or listening. I am member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and plan on serving a two-year mission after two semesters of school.

Good run this morning in xc. We went from the school up center street and then part way up cliffside hill, turned south, and then came back by Ryan's Place Park and past the Marriot and Elements. I missed the warmup so I did an 800m cool down after core and every thing. I should have done strides instead since that's what some of the other guys were doing.

I wasn't sure about running today, but I'm really glad I did. I felt very quick the whole time and it was great. I ran to the top of Old Maine and back home. It was raining but it actually felt pretty good. In the last 3/4 of a mile or so, I really increased my speed. I'm pretty sure I was going 5K pace or faster.

It was very cold and rainy this morning, so I was pretty reluctant to go to practice, but I don't regret it. I got a ride there today (thank heavens). The track is closed off now so they can lay down the new turf, so we actually had mile warmup, which I think I prefer as opposed to an 800. 

After stretching we ran a good six and half to the Lundstrom Park area, by Hillcrest Elementary. I felt pretty fast today, too. I fact I found out from Mark that onw of our miles on the way back was sub seven, and it felt like nothing. I love those days. When we got back three of us did two 200m strides with 200m jogs. I hit 32 and 34. That's the fastest I've run in while, when I'm used to these long distance runs. It was good to have some speed in there, though. After driver's ed I ran the mile and a half home, and they were not enjoyable after sitting for three hours, but all the extra volume is good.

Today's run is definitley the worst of the week so far. The last four runs Iv'e had have felt amazing, and I think it was mailnly a hydration problem. I decided to go at 3 in the afternoon, and it wasn't cool out. So I spent the whole time feeling like crap. I actually took a new route, which was in the north-east quadrant of logan where I almost never go. It wasn't as fun as I thought. I actually cut it a mile short on my way back and stopped at my mom's office by the high school since she was about to leave anyway.

Mile warmup in cross country then we played games the rest of the time. It was fun, but it kind of frustrated me since I knew that ment that I was going to have to run later. It's my brithday and we had plans, so I ran 3 miles as soon as I got home from driver's ed. They were pretty gruelling after sitting on a hard chair for three hours. The first mile was 6:50, and normally that would feel pretty good, but my body was tight and my form didn't feel natural at all. For the final 800, I did a small "workout", which wasn't really hard at all. I just went 30 seconds at about in between 1 and 2 mile pace, and then 30 second jogs. It actually just made it feel quicker.

Same run as last saturday on the deer fence trail. This time instead of going up Providence Canyon I actually kept going on the part of trail that I didn't know existed. I didn't have the energy I wanted, and I definitley didn't feel as good as last week. It took 1:01:00 (minus rest breaks) , with splits of 30:00 and 31:00, so actually not that bad considering the fact that it was alot more uphill on the way back.
