AM - I was a little late this morning because I didn't want to wake up, but I made it. AC, Ran with Haley, a little tired and slow, shins hurt, fat knee, just running. : )

3 Miles 24:50 Total 8:15mi ave (817 825 801)

PM - Today we had a speed work out. I did 2x1200 at goal pace. They were supposed to be at 3:45 for a 5 minute mile but that didn't happen today. It was really hard! I need to run faster.

2 mile warm up.

 1- 3:58

2- 4:08

2 mile cool down.

5.5 miles

1600 - 5:09 PR!! By 8 seconds. All of yesterday and today I told myself that this was the race, today is the day. I was ready to run hard and I did it today.

1- 1:12 I didn't have a great start but by the first 100 I was in the open and the fast guys were right in front of me.

2- 1:17 Slowed down but I was right on pace (2:30).

3- 1:22 I will work on this lap. got to cut some time off here. (3:52)

4- 1:17 I passed Willy and he was cheering me on. Just tried to finish strong. 

5:09

I thought about practice and doing 400s and 1200s and it really helped. I knew I could run fast 1/4 at my goal pace, just had to put them together. Push pass the limits. 

It was a great race! Very happy, close to my goal of breaking 5.

800 - 2:26. Even splits from what I heard: 1:13, 1:13. Tried to run fast. Legs were tired, but still tried to run. Still have to run faster in the 800.

IN-N-OUT! Ate there tonight, first day open. Not amazing, but pretty good.

AM - AC with Haley. Besides being a little sore and wanting to be asleep I felt really good. We ran a 8:14 first mile and after the 8:05 second mile I told Haley about negative splits and we got going fast and ran a 7:05 last mile. Pretty good morning run.

3 miles 23:32 Total 7:49mi ave

PM - Very slow 4 miles today. Went on a crazy run around the desert (sandbergs) with the team. We went everywhere and just messed around. We ran around the round-about by the school and the one at the school. Took forever but it was an easy day.

AM - AC with Haley. Really wanted to sleep again but we made it, a little late. Nothing special, just another morning run. 

24:40 Total 8:12mi ave 834 816 743

PM - 6 miles with the team. We went into the desert behind the Firestation and back to the school through Sandbergs. Got pretty tired but an ok run.

53:06 Total 8:33mi ave 6.20 miles

 Missionary hair cut after practice.

Went to the Doctor today for my mission check up. Had to get blood drawn and a TB test (with another needle). I really hate needles so that wasn't too fun, But I am 6.1 3/4 tall and weigh 148 pounds. So besides that I'm healthy, JK! Can't wait to get my mission papers done and turned in. 

3200 - Had to wait all day for the 2 mile. Whenever we have to wait a long time to run I get nervous and it messes with my head, so I like when my event is first. Ran a 1 mile warm up and checked in. By the time I got to the starting line they were ready to go so I didn't have time to put my race shoes on, ran in my regular 2120s.

During the race I thought I was doing ok and I was passing people but ended up being slow. Couldn't breath great. I ended up being 4th or 5th in the heat.

1- 1:17 2- 1:22 3- 1:27 4-1:30 5- 1:32 6- 1:32 7- 1:34 8- 1:26  11:43

I was mad after the race because I sucked so bad. I don't even know why I was so slow. Ran a .30 cool down.

Steeplechase was cool to watch.

1600 - Didn't have to wait long this morning for the 1 mile, ran a .60 warm up (.5 cool down after). I was so ready for this race, even had my spikes on! I was ready for a great race and even more ready to have a great race after the horrible one yesterday.

1- 1:09 After the first 100 I was right behind Danny and Willy. Ran a way fast first lap and I was excited to be on pace, actually under pace.

2- 2:27 (1:18) I am in the lead! I was feeling good and was pushing it to keep on pace.

3- 3:54 (1:27) They call "Bryan Lunt in the lead" over the speaker, instead of "Jeff Frodsham". I wanted to hear my name so bad! I didn't know I slowed down so much on this lap untel I hear 3:54. dang.

4- 5:19 (1:25) Danny passes me with like 300 to go and Willy gets me with like 50 to go.

WELL CRAP!!!

Pretty ticked off because I felt like I killed myself but I ended up with another freakin 5:20 mile when I was going for under 5. I don't know, maybe I started too fast but I knew I had to go hard to get what I wanted. That's how fast I'll have to go if I want to break 5.

I guess I have one more chance to do this. REGION.
