Long-Term Running Goals:

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.

Great workout today. We did 5x1000m at 5k race pace(or goal pace for me) with 3 min jog recovery. 2:46, 2:44, 2:45, 2:43, 2:45. Last one was tough and started slower than the rest, but we kinda raced each other for the last 100m. I felt good about how things went. I hope to run a 3k at that pace this next race, but if I don't I won't be too upset.

PM-10 easy miles with strides after. My legs were pretty sore and my mind is tired from the tests. Only one more final to go!

10 easy miles in Smithfield. There was a lot of ice up the canyon so I turned around early and did a few miles around the block.

Long run with JD from Sky View to the island and back. We kept it pretty easy because it was pretty snowy, icy, and cold. I only fell once though. It was nice to catch up with JD. He ran at Mountain Crest and his best 3200m was 9:40. This year he was USU’s 4th man. And they qualified for nationals, so I feel like that shows big improvement, especially that he only recently returned from a mission in France this year.
