DES NEWS! I was stoked for this race all summer. Love local road races. The goal going into this was just sub 32 minutes. Warmed up with Josh, about 2 miles with strides and drills. Then the race starts, and I settle right behind Nico and Josh and the other BYU guys. Ran with Colton Riemann for a sec, he pulled away quite early, thought I'd go with him but I've never raced a 10k before so I was a little more conservative than I should've been. No watch, no mile splits. Ran in no man's land for a while, then a BYU guy came upon my shoulder, and I raced with him til the finish. He gave me two mile splits, 5:03 and 5:15. Then we caught Travis Feeny, future teammate. Ran with him for a while, then he outkicked me to the finish by a second. Finished in 31:57, tasty lil PR and achieved my goal. Threw up right at the line lol. Cooled down after with Travis. Great race today, Josh was second in 29:33! That's what he wanted too so good stuff from both of us today. Start to a good vacation with Josh, uo next is summiting timp, then glass animals concert on Wednesday.

Taking 2 days off from des news, incredibly sore and I don't want to risk anything right before the season. I did, however, see glass animals with Josh last night, and it was electrifying. They are so much better live than one would think

Day 2 of rest. This will be good, this week will prepare me for lower mileage in August, to get ready for harder workouts when practice starts

9 this morning with Aaron and aidan, dikes at 6:47 avg. Calves incredibly sore still, but can't waste any more time off. Might run more later, who knows.

3mile shakeout solo this morning, 6:33 avg. Feeling less sore

Nighttime: 10 on daisy main street and park, ended on the track. 6:50 avg with the guys. Good run, still tight and feeling deseret

Mud run on the mountain. Kinda felt like crap. 6:39 avg with cam kasey mark and Josh. Next will be good, getting back into the routine after that race. Practice starts soon!
