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.

Did half a mile warm up, then we started the run.  It was still pretty hot - 90 degrees.

At first I kinda got stuck in the crowd, but went around some Bonneville guys and went to the lead with Dylan and 2 bonneville people behind me. It was a figure 8 twice. The first part was good, everyone was pretty close behind me.

After the second part of the figure 8 I pulled ahead of everyone. At the first part of the second figure 8 I didn't see Dylan or one of the Bonneville people anymore. I was getting scared of the guy behind me so I tried speeding up. At the second part of the figure 8 it is mostly sand.  Coach Storrs or Coach Wright told me that I had 10 seconds on the guy behind me, which helped me out a ton, maybe only mentally, and helped me get back into my rythym.

At the end I thought it ended about 100 meters after I thought it was going to, but I still had a kick after that. After two Bonneville guys crossed, and then Dylan and Tyler. The guys and girls both won (YEAH!). It was a bit close though for the guys, we won by 3 points. Everyone did really well. Nice job Sky View.

      We did a long run in the morning.  Ran with Alex a bit faster and a bit less distance that I wanted, but we had to hurry to make the bus to school.  Alex and I kept speeding up a lot during the run.  We started increasing our speed every once in a while.  It was a nice tempo run.

We did some beast hill repeats. They were hard and on some I would be feeling great, thinking I'm going fast, but then Thomas or someone else would pass me going a lot more faster.  It was a good training run.
