Personal:

Served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints from July 2015-July 2017. I gained 30 lbs. during the service and came back out of shape; however I knew that if the Lord wanted me to once again run competitively, he would bless me to return to fitness.

I graduated from Sky View High School in Smithfield, Utah. I currently run for Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah.

Total Distance

6.00

A good workout today. I worked on pacing. I did this workout last year, but this year I wanted to make sure I was fresh afterward. 100m at starting pace, 200m mile pace, 200m at 3200m pace, 200m at finishing pace. On the first one everything was right on or close(the 200m at 3200m pace was a second slow) with the finish in 28. The next one I broke up into the 300m and 400m. 300m was 43 with a fast start and then a 200m where I worked on staying relaxed and mile effortish, then the 400m I went 31 for the first 200, and 27 for the all out 200m. After I did 2X100m start and 200m at all the paces again to make sure I had it down. Cool down after. Not a very hard workout, but a good one to get ready to run fast.

Exactly! Not every workout needs to be epic. Just accomplish what you're trying to accomplish.

Thanks Murphy, it get's hard sometimes to not get too caught up in the workouts.
