Running Accomplishments:

Pre-high school: I ran a lot of local 5ks and a few half marathons.  I didn't do a ton of training, but I just had fun, and I got more serious about it as high school got closer.

High school: I enjoyed running a lot, especially cross country.  I originally did track to keep my in shape for cross country.  I ran at Footlocker Nationals, the Adidas Dream mile, Brooks PR Invitational, world xc junior championships, and a few local 5ks.

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.

A bit frustrating of a race, but it was good. The reason it’s frustrating is because I’ll likely be a spot or two out of nationals with it. 

In quick, I started out in back and was boxed in. Went 4:16 through 1600m, so slower than the 4:10-12 plan. After that I moved up on the inside, but then was boxed in again. With 2 laps to go I saw I needed to run 1:30 for the last 600m and doubted myself. McMillan was right ahead of me and with a lap to go he started moving and I just tried to finish. I was alone the last half lap, but still tried to kick well.
