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.

     Went 5 tempo miles in some terrible weather.  slower than last weeks runs, mostly due to the snow and wind, but still averaged a sub-6 so still pretty fast.  Felt great, probably because I didn't run for 2 straight days.

     Went running on the same course I went yesterday, sadly not up the canyon, but a nice less hilly run.  Pushed it more than yesterday, and felt it.  Ran at an average of 5:40 I think, maybe 5:45, I timed it but I don't know where I put the ipod that timed it.  Felt good, but not during the times I was trying to push it, but I didn't feel bad during those times either.

     I was going to just go with 3 easy miles, but I felt great and went medium at a 6 minute mile pace.  I just found that there is a track meet I can go to tomorrow and now I feel extremely stupid because Now I'm gonna be sore for tomorrow after those two last days and today.  ah well.  Can't change the past now, can I?

      I went with Jerrel to the meet.  Ths track was 440 meters or something like that, and indoors with a ice skating rink in the middle.  First we ran the mile.  Jerrel and I were in the second heat.  I ran a 4:38 in it.  Jerrel was 2 or 3 seconds faster, and won the heat.  In the two mile I tried to run a strategy Kyle Peterson told me he used.  Run the first mile in a sub-5 and the next a bit slower, usually a 5, but try to get a bit under.  I stayed with a Davis guy for the first two laps, then he kept a fast pace and stayed way ahead.  At my 5th lap another davis guy passed me, but we kept fighting to beat the other.  At the last lap he passed me, and then on the last turn Jerrel got me and I passeed the Davis guy after that and tried to get Jerrel, but didn't.  I got a 9:47 at that race.

     8 tempo miles.  Was just going to go for easy, but after my first two miles I had a goal, which was pretty hard, that pushed my pace for the rest of the way.  I averaged a 5:53 mile in the run.
