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.

AM-3.5 warm up, 6 mile tempo in trainers in 29:51, 3.75 mile cool down.  I didn't feel too great, and knew that I was the only one going 6 didn't help.  The group started slow, about 5:00, and it just felt a bit junky.  Yesterday I learned the season probably won't happen, so I signed up for a 10k in LA in two weeks.  This doesn't help my confidence.  

PM-5 miles with Garrett.

AM-3.4 mile warm up, 2x(mile, 1200, 800) with jog recovery for equal time, 3 mile cool down. My splits were something like 4:23, 3:15, 2:06, 4:27, 3:19, 2:08.  I just felt dead after the first set.  I actually never felt in rythym either.  Still a bit scared for the race in two weeks.  

PM-5 miles on my own.
