School records in the 5km and 10km. 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. Favorite Blogs: |

AM-I slept in, even though I fell asleep at 6 last night, I slept almost 15 hours. I woke up a twice for 10 to 20 minutes. It was nice because I didn't get any sleep the night before. Anyway, I woke up and my Achielles was hurting, so I knew I was going to have to go easy. 5 easy miles. It was harder running back at altitude than when I was at sea level and could run 6 flat pace and still call it easy. PM-5 miles easy. I would slow a lot if it started hurting. Just for fun I timed the run, but that made me go way too fast the first mile(5:20), but I slowed down enough to finish in 31:40.

| | My dad recommended taking the day off with the Achilles tendon hurting yesterday. Better to be safe and take his advice then be sorry and be hurt before the season starts.

XC-7 I talked to coach about my Achilles, and he said just jump in with a group that was going at an easy pace. The team was doing 8X1000m at I pace (3 min. jog recovery). I was almost happy that my Achilles was hurting because this workout kills me. I'm supposed to hit 2:57, and I am usually slow. Anyway I ran alone at really easy pace, then went with a group that was going a bit faster. I just kept switching to a faster group until I ran a few with Tyson. I actually felt really good during these, but I don't want to try anything that will hurt it. I ran the last one in 3:06, so I did do one at a pretty good pace. PM-3.1 easy, but at a good pace. Everything felt good up until a big bug flew into my mouth in my last mile. After that the rest of the run was full of spit and a runny nose.

| | Ran 10 miles in Farmington on a trail. I ran with a Garmin to see how far it was. It was pretty straight, so the Garmin didn't have room for error, and it was consistent with the mile markers on the parts of the trail that had them. I averaged 6:20 for the first 6 miles, and then I restarted the Garmin and tried to make sure it was about 7 min. mile pace. I averaged 6:52 for the next 4 miles. I was really dehydrated, and drank 8 cups of water in the first hour of being back. I drank more after that.

AM-5 mile tempo, 1 mile cool down. The tempo started out slower than usual, but it went better after that. Splits: 5:09.7(downhill, but slower than usual), 5:49 (uphill, but still slower than usual), 5:25.7(uphill, then downhill. About the same time I usually run this mile.) 5:25.7 (downhill. A bit slower than usual), 5:31 (uphill. It's the first mile backwards, and this is the fastest I've ever ran this mile) I feel good about this run, and I'm surprisingly pretty sore after. PM- 3 miles easy. I took a nap in the middle of the day, and then my legs felt great.
