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.

I am very pleased with this run as my first real one (not counting lasta monday or my feeble attempts at racing) in five weeks. That's a super long time when you think that the last time I took a break that long was last winter. But I really believe that I can get into shape for Footlocker in time, and I can definetley be in amazing shape for track, which starts in four months.

I took kind of the same route as last week, but I took a long cut around the temple first. Then I went up the canal trail until it got wide (about halfway), and took the fastest route back as possible. In all it was about 35 five minutes for 4.6 miles, and that's a 7:30 pace, so a very good sign. The only thing different was I was breathing kind of hard, but that's expected and I've had much worse runs when I was in top shape.

On another note, we got a transfer from the Salt Lake area (although he spent the fall in Nebraska). His name is Jack, he's a junior, and his mile PR is 4:15, and his 2 mile is 9:22 apparently. Very excited to have him as fellow harrier. This means very good things for the XC team next year.

2 miles easy to the river trailhead and back, about 7:30 pace again, but it felt really uncomfortable. I was tight, and couldn't loosen up(it was mainly my left leg). I think I'll take tomorrow off and try running again on friday, since some of us footlocker people are going to do a group run.

Good run again today. I felt the same as Tuesday, so good, just not how it was pre-injury, but I'll get there. I had an average pace of 8 min/mile. I put some hills into it by going through the nature park and then taking the climb up the hillside path into the neighbor hoods, then dropped down more gradually on the way back. Good run, in about a week I can probably start running with the guys I ran with during the season.
