am- with the start of tappering for region and state, we are going 20 minutes this week and the next couple weeks too! Really chill and I felt real good actually.

pm- Today was the Kosmin Test and it was so beast! I was a meter off from getting a whole lap in the first 60 secs. Then I got in front of Alex the next 60 secs and the last couple tried to get closer to Preston and Andrew. I got a little closer and ended with 1501 meters! That was 50 meters better than last time. So happy. Then we did a 300, 200, and 100 meter sprints and my times were 44.5 , 28.5, and 12.9! Heck to the yes! I am so ready to go race my heart out and get state qualifying @ Herriman Twlight this friday. Great day and great running:)

WORD OF THE DAY: well now that I have gained so much knowledge and have been asked why my nickname is Definition Dallen when I don't know the meaning, I will give words that I know. Today's word is "birthday" because Connor Baller's birthday and he is a beast so you all should look him up on this blog. Birthday means: the anniversary of the birth of a person out of the womb of your mother!

am- the regular route to Arby's with our 20 minute runs! I found a penny! heck to the yes. It's gonna go in my jar that will eventually pay for some running shoes.....eventually;)

pm- Went out to the JV meet at Canyon View. It was weird cause it wasn't cool weather... so weird. It is always chill weather! oh well, anywho we did a workout which was 4x60sec fartleks which was awesome! I loved it even tho I was tried from the Kosmin yesterday. Then we watched the 1600m and my freshman bud Carson Horsepool broke the 5 min barrier! So dope! He is now part of the freshman 5 club. But not the "freshman 5" cause that is different. And also Andrew was a beastly bull and ran into several peeps. 

WORD OF THE DAY: well todays word is "butthurt" because that is what I felt when my ice cream fell off my ice cream cone at the track meet. It means: to be overly annoyed or bothered by a perceived insult. Example in a sentence: Andrew was butthurt after he got a slap to the bottom.

am- nice easy morning run. My watch died half way through tho:/

pm- nice chill run out into Green Springs and back. Then we did striders and it was pretty good! Haha the girls were going super slow cause they started 5 minutes before us and we caught up to them a mile out. Wow. After the run we did the kids track meet thing and I was the lane 6 clicker and I won a lot of the races so that was cool.

WORD OF THE DAY: todays word is "hawt". Hawt is the slang term for hot, and usually is used to describe an attractive person. Ex: Dang that Alli Peterson girl is hawt!
