"If you fail to prepare, prepare to fail"-PRE

am- we ran the course and I met Reed from Alta. He is a cool dude, and we talked as we ran the course while Coach Holt talked with his coach, Rob.

today I ate at Pier 76 fish grill and it was delicious!

am- Swell run today. So me and Mitch and Spencer warmed up and found a bathroom out in the boonies so that was nice! Got to the start line and had to wait for forever since the Junior girls were slow at the back end of the race. So then we finally start and me and Mitch get a decent start and after one loop we were at like 15th ish. We then moved up to the lead pack of 8 dudes and at the top of switch-backs, this dude broke away. That is when I shoulda gone with him!!! I woulda won!! Oh well. So he takes off and I chill with the 2nd and 3rd dudes til I realize that they arent going after him so I take off. Then the 2nd dude came with me and we worked together to get the guy but he had just created to much of a lead. So then I went after him on Reservoir hill but he was just too far ahead and then the one dude ended up out-kicking me with 200m left. I was happy with my 3rd place finish, but I now know what it takes to go after a goal and be real close. I am super excited for track season to get myself quicker and ready to breakthrough at XC next year. My goals for track are a sub-9:30 3200m and a sub 4:30 1600m. I know these are pretty far out there compared to my current PR's but I know that I can get them through hard work and "NO RAGRETS". Peace out

Easy trail run @ Shnob-Kibe roller coasters. Oh it is great to be back running again after our two week break and then my wisdom teeth! Dang I actually felt really good too so that is good.

pm- Me and Danny went on the annual Christmas Eve run out at Green Springs golf course and ran barefoot on the course and then went back. It was nice. Danny gave me advice on everything that is in my future, such as college and lds mission and paying bills and saving money and yeah. It was really good to hear. 

pm- Ran dino tracks with Josie today. It was snowing at first and that was pretty chilly. Nice run and good to be out on a trail!

pm- So we left for Georgia last night and flew and got there at 7am. So we slept and then in the afternoon me and Devo and Danny went out for a easy 30min. It was really good weather, like 70's.

pm- So we left early this day to go do adventurous stuff in Georgia so i didnt get the run in then. And when we got back it was raining insanely hard so I had to run inside on my Aunt's trendmill. That was a blast:/ 

am- Woke up and ran on my own. Went down a main street for an out-and-back run. Real nice weather out here. Tons of trees everywhere, and tons of hills.

pm- Danny, Devo and I ran at like 6 or 7, I cant remember. It was dark and the cool air felt soooo good. We ran out on the main road the other direction and that was kewl. 46 min total.

We hike for 2 hours today and I didnt get a run in. Shame on me.
