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.

    Did a 5 mile tempo run.  I ran around a 5:55 mile pace.  I was hoping to run it faster, but with the snow at mile 3 that was harder to push off of, I think I did alright.  Felt pretty good for most of it, except at the end of mile 4 I had a stomach ache.

    Ran another 5 mile tempo run at around a 5:50 pace.  I didn't feel that good at first, but as soon as the first half mile was over I felt amazing.  I don't know what came into me, but I felt great.

     Went for an easy run.  Was going to run with some XC guys, but they were doing a track workout that took me a while to decide I didn't want to do it.  Went pretty slow due to wind and snow and the cold.

    I went short and slow.  Not my plan at first, but due to the weather and how I wasn't feeling that good before, during, or after, I didn't go fast either.  I did it though, so it's all good.

     Did a 5-mile tempo run with a mile cool down after.  I timed myself this time with a stopwatch on my ipod, and my splits were 5:02, 5:51, 5:47, 5:18, 5:40 for the 5 miles and a recovery mile at the end.  I felt pretty good for it.  Yesterday I was supposed to either go long or go hard, and I didn't, so since of the weather today was great, I instead went hard today.
