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.

PM-4Xmile workout today.  It went well at the start, but I may have overdone it early on and started dying on the last one.  If I can remember correctly we went 4:25, 4:21, 4:23, then I did 800m in 2:15, then a 400m a minute later in 65(pretty much just ran with Clayton here, but taking a break in the 3rd 400m).  Pretty disappointed that I called it after the 3rd on.  My last 400m of the 3rd repeat I got dropped a bit, but didn't get too worried. Well, I just had a mental problem during the 4th one, I felt pretty great, and I feel good now, so I just need to get ready to gamble at the end of workouts and end of races.  I haven't really blown up super bad in a workout or race, and this makes me wonder if I just don't go for it at the end.  Work to do mentally.

AM-3.25 easy miles on the grass fields.

PM-lake loop tempo with the group. The goal was to stay together as it was super windy and be consistent. We ran 5:12, 5:05((both into the wind), 5:08, 4:55, 4:50 if I remember correctly. I liked this, it wasn’t super tough and we ran in trainers. Since Tuesday was pretty tough, it was kinda a recovery workout.
