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.

Got home from school today and ran the mile from home to Willow Park, and jogged about another mile around there. I was meeting Logan XC to join them for a workout. It was 7 x 1K with 3:00-3:15 active rest. I didn't feel smooth at all, and didn't feel a ton of enrgy either.  Splits were 3:35, 3:38, 3:36, 3:38, 3:38, 3:36, 3:30. (Take into account that I was just running with Kalin and wasn't pushing myself to go as fast as possible) I was going to do 8 but decided not to because I just didn't feel good. I think it's good that I did that workout though because as long as the Red Ribbon Run is a full 5K (fingers crossed) I want to finally PR in the 5K. Even a simple sub-17 would be great. That race starts and ends in the same place and isn't completely flat so it is record worthy. Talked to people a bit and made sure that I had enough mileage than ran home. It was hotter than I expected this afternoon!

Semi-easy run after math, started on the canal trail going east then up the hill on the highway, then 14th East and looped back to the xc course on a private canal trail, I then followed that canal trail further south and came out on 10th North, than made my way up the hill, which was a bit hard because I was kinda tired. Then stopped off at the ARC and did some lifting, the standard squats, cleans, and bench, three sets of whatever I could handle. After I got out of there I started running and I was going pretty fast and I wasn't even trying to, probably because of the resistance I was getting just before that was taken off when I ran. Never really noticed that before. Anyways that was just a half mile down Old Main. The run was 6:49 average.

Was going to go for a morning run before school but... didn't wake up for it. Someday it'll happen! Logan had a meet at Ridgeline so I just ran there. I drove up earlier than I would have and did a four mile run out and back up Millville Canyon. Kinda sucked, the road is crazy rocky and steep, so it was bad going up and coming down. Also it was hot today, kind of a shock after the cooler temps last week. Got back down there while the girls were finishing and right before the boys started. I found the coaches and we ran about 3/4 of a mile into the course. (it's one giant road loop with huge hills and no shade, glad I wasn't running lol). After we watched that I hurried back past the starting line and to the highest point on the upper east road. That sucked just running up. Cheered people on and then on the way down I screamed at brother the whole time, making sure it didn't look like I was pacing him. Shoutout to Eric for running a good race. Shoutout to the Logan guys (even though theyre not on the blog) for racing well too. Hung out and talked to people then ran a half mile cooldown with Paul and left. The whole run was like 7:30/mi because of the 11 minute mile up the canyon. I didn't eat anything all day until right before I left to go to the meet, so I just didn't feel good haha.

Parked at Lundstrom after class for an easy 6 miles in loop I planned earlier. Well, it turned out to be an 8 mile out and back, 3 miles of which was on a canal trail I found that I didn't have to trespass to run on! Wasn't the first time I'd been there though, when I was a rookie sophomore and Brian McKenna was the coach we did like 8x1K there, pretty much exactly three years ago actually! The memories man. And I was feeling decent. I ended up cruising the whole run for 6:39 ap with a 6:07 last mile. So we'll see if I still do a tempo tomorrow because the last part of this was tempo-ish. Better weather than yesterday (cooler temps) so that probably helped. Before I left I did four strides at Lundstrom Park.

5.5 miles easy after my morning class, down the hill on 1400 E, running on the XC course a bit, then trespassed again on that canal trail, onto 600 E, where I discovered this really nice building (dorms I guess?) that had a good sounding resturaunt. Then back on the island canal trail, from which I hiked up some switch backs to get back to my car. I felt sluggish the entire time, and I also started to realize my shoes don't have much left in them. 7:00 ap.

Great long run up at the Jardine Juniper trail. Fall colors were decent, althought alot of leaves were already on the ground. The trail is about 4.5 miles up, first going up through a valley, then up a set of steep switchbacks, then into a second small valley/meadow, then some mild switchbacks to teh top of the ridge, where I did an optional loop that was like a mile and a half. Didn't feel too good to start, but the first half is the steepest. It rained a bit on my way up, which felt nice. It felt noticeabley warmer in the first valley than everywhere else. Slipped on some mud on the first switchbacks but I caught myself. The pace going up was 9-10 min and then I started pushing it on the loop and as soon as it headed downhill I was going sub 6 and ran a 5:45 and 5:59, then I started not feeling too good and took a break which is too bad cuz I was gonna crush the downhill CR on that trail. Added to 10 at the bottom, Ap was 7:39. Awesome run.
