Long-Term Running Goals:

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.

I haven't posted in a while about training. The last run I completed was great, but I had some hip pain. About an hour after the run, I couldn't walk without a sharp pain. The next week and a half, I couldn't do anything without a sharp pain in my back and hip. I got a couple MRI's before finding it was a sacral stress fracture. Only recently I've been able to cross train without pain in my Sacrum. I had to pull out of the Houston Half Marathon and won't be running the Olympic trials in the marathon either. Now my goals are to try and run the Olympic standards in the 10k and 5k. 
AM-3000 yard swimming, 30 minutes of pool running.

AM-3750 yards. Was 28 seconds faster overall than on Tuesday. 25 minutes of aqua jogging.

PM-underwater treadmill with Clayton and Cade. This was honestly the best I've felt cross training in a while. No pain after, and I felt like I was getting a good workout in.
