Adam's Running

Awesome run through Lambert. We wound our way up to the top of rodeo then went down on middle spring. When we got back to the park Justin and I went for an extra 1.5 mile loop.

Hill workout today. 4x600m on the hill by Cedar Ridge. Lil' Warner and I hit 1:59, 1:57, 2:00, and 1:58. I felt pretty good and we did them pretty fast, so things are looking good for Saturday at BYU. 

Solid modest run, then down to the stop sign and back. 6x100m strides when we got back.

3x5 minutes on the canal. Felt ok on all of them, but definitely felt better than last week. Lil' Warner, Zack, and I stuck together on all of them, and we were running pretty dang fast on the last one.

Today we did a mountain run at a nice easy pace. Trail conditions were average, mud and ice but not too much. Got kicked off the golf course for throwing rocks onto the ice. Trevor is officially training with us full time now which is big news for cross country next year.

BYU indoor invite today. Lots of fun, I forgot how different racing in track is than racing in XC. I went to the first quarter of our church ball game (We won), then got in my car and booked it down to BYU breaking the speed limit by about 20 the whole way there. I got there and went straight to the bullpen, where due to not checking in I ended up seeded 25th in my heat. I got on the line on the third row with zero warmup, so I didnt have high expectations for the race. The gun went off and I tried to get hard to get good position, but it was of no use. I ended up running in lane three for most of the race. I slowly worked my way up throughout the race until I was in third at one point, then got passed by a couple dudes in the last 50 meters. Afterwards cooled down and talked to Blake, then went and got some lunch at Panda Express. I came back and chilled for a while before doing some warmup and going down to the bullpen for the 800. I didn't really know what to expect for this race, and I was actually pretty nervous. The gun went off and I actually got a really good start. I filed into second right behind Joe Benson from Timpanogos (cool kid bytheway), and just chilled there for the first half until someone passed us and got a bout a 3 meter lead. With about 150 to go I passed joe and tried to caatch the kid in front but I couldn't catch up and Joe ended up barely beating me. It was actually a lot of fun and it didn't even hurt real bad. Afterwards I cooled down with Joe and some guys from Davis for about three miles around campus. Overall a really fun meet and a confidence booster for these next few indoor meets. Shoutout to Justin for getting DQ'd in the mile, and Connor for a couple good battles in the mile and 800!
