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.

2 mile warmup and then 4x400 average probably 70s. After the last one I was lightheaded and exhausted so I had to stop.

Surprisingly good workout today. Started out with a shorter warmup in my trainers (800). Then I did 3x400m in 1:23, 1:08, 1:20. So about mile pace for me right now on the first and third ones, but that'll change in a couple weeks. Then I ran 3x300m in 56, 60, 56. After that I did 4x200 in 35, 33, 31, 30. I felt really fast and good on the last one. About then Johnny, Mark, and Eric Strand (one of the track coaches this season)  all showed up one by one after I jogged 800 more meters to keep my blood flowing (before the 200s) They went off on a warmup and I just took a break and waited for them) When they got back I ran a 75 quarter with them. Then I ran two more 200s (I only remember that one of them was a 33) and one final 400 (74). Finally a 1200m cooldown and that was it. I can already kind of tell that I'm slowly getting my fitness back, so I'm excited to build a base this month and get back in top shape. But first, FOOT LOCKER IS ON SATURDAY! And we leave tomorrow morning!

We stopped in Mesquite to run and eat lunch. It was kind of cool to run with way different scenery. It was overcast and kind of wet. I felt pretty sluggish and couldn't really keep up with the other three. We ran through a neighbourhood and then on a sand trail.

Ran the MSAC course. The hills kind of scared me but its a really cool course.

Fun race. Not necessarily a fast one, but it didn't have to be. I basically just enjoyed myself. I'll really race it next year. The course is the coolest course I've ever been on by far. I wish I didn't only have one more chance to race it. It really scenic, too. As far as splits go, my first mile was a 6:20, and I slowed down once the hills started. It was really fun to coast down the hills, especially the first one. I think I'm pretty good at running downhill in my opinion. I don't remember what my 2 mile split was, but it might have been fourteen, so really super slow. The whole time I was feeling good, and I only really stated to get a lactic buildup with 600-800 meters left. All I can say is I can't wait to race it next year and get a huge PR. 

Here's some pics from the trip!
