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.

    I ran a very snowy and slippery run outside.  I tried to go fast, but it just wouldn't happen.  My last two miles were around 6:30 and 7:00, and they were faster than my other miles.  It snowed the whole time, but was actually warmer than I was expecting.  It was 34 degrees when I left and 32 when I came back, so it wasn't cold, just very snowy.

     5-After school I met up with Tyler, Nick and Kyler for a run.  The roads were pretty clear today, but it was still cold.  I was able to catch up with Tyler and hear about all his college races and stuff. 

    5- I got home and just felt like I still had a lot in the tank to run with.  The roads were clear today, and they might not be tomorrow, so I decided to throw in some tempo.  4 miles tempo, but not as fast as I would've liked.  Not all the roads were clear, but most of them were. Time: 22:22. 1 mile cool down.

    Easy cold run. For some reason I just didn't feel that good today during the run.

    I was going to go for a 5 mile tempo with a mile cool down, but I procrastinated until 30 min. until I was supposed to leave to my sister's piano.  5 mile tempo-27:50.  I thought I had to leave right then so my cool down was small.  After I found out I had plenty of time.

    Not a very good run today.  The pace was easy, but my stomache wasn't feeling to good during the run.

    4 miles (3 miles uphill, 1 downhil) in 23:15.   a third a mile easy.  4 miles (3 downhill, 1 uphill)- sub-22.  My timer didn't start, and I didn't notice until the first mile mark.  I really pushed it that first mile though, and it was really downhill so I'm saying at the slowest I did a 5:40.  the 3 other miles together were 16:18.  1 mile cool down.   It feels good to get a hard work out over with.  I know I was supposed to have a break this week, but my wisdom teeth appointment got moved for a week or two later.  That's when I'll take my break though.
