Progression Daily

Out by the airport running the Dawson trails. Snuck some slow but fun miles before running with the David, Bake, Sariah, Ave, and Emmalee. 9.36 miles 

A little late to the party on warm up. Jumped around for a couple of reps then I think I hit 5x 5 (fast and steady) with Gubs. Sariah was in the mix with us for a minute and David twards the end. Ran pretty consistent. 6.88 miles 

Down to the river with the girls. Hit some strides on the uphills back to the school. 6.55 miles 

Washington with the girls then coach laps. Even ran a 300 with the freshman boys and regretted it. 7.1 miles 

Ran a couple of miles before climbing up to the TQ. As per most trails I wish it was longer. Pie Run. Ran across the tech ridge and down the Newd road and close to my car. 8.43 miles

Did my best to keep up with the boys even while having stomach issues. Luckily my house came up at mile 5. After a short break I went back out looking for the boys. Found the girls then branched off with Emmalee Williams for 4.5 miles. I’m so glad I found this crew otherwise I’m sure I would’ve slowed down. Em smoked me on the strides but I tried to stay close the rest of the time. Feeling good about my running after a solid week. 10.90 / 7:07 mile pace 

Mustang Pass. Slow jog before Dirty Jake and the boys caught me. Made the loop today. Stayed in the back. 7.16 miles

Warm up with boys. Did shorter segments of the workout so I could keep up. Ran a little with the freshman boys, Avery and Elin's group, and last 2 minutes of Emmalee's final 2 reps. Cool with a bunch of people. 7.77 miles

Wanted more mileage but settled for coach laps. 5.51 miles 

Not much to write home about, just laps with coaches. It's all part of my strategy to preserve energy for the big race. Remember to absorb your burbs tomorrow! 5.02 miles 

AM- Jake Carry Me? Woke up feeling like trash. No sleep and Trey being sick got me. Down to the river with da boys. Quite enjoyed a non Saturday morning run. Ran up trail to nowhere and Jake wouldn’t carry me. Coulda used him on the strides. 7.12 miles 

PM- I hoped feeling like garbage all morning would be chill when I purposefully made myself sick during the race…….Was staying competitive until I drank my 3rd can. I threw up 50 meters into the 3rd lap. I didn’t know I was capable of throwing up. Still jogged the last 2 laps. .99 

The Dave Holt Canal Trail. Fun morning run with the dedicated crew. They ran slow enough for me to hang around for a while. Enjoyed some new sights but not the skunk smells. Got dropped around 8.25 once the strides hit. I still maintained a decent pace (for my standards). Another good Saturday even feeling like death. 11.21 miles / 7:15 mile pace 

Virgin River Half Marathon (Ross's Version). Ross wanted to run a 1:43 so I helped him with pacing. Enjoyed the course and spending some time together. I think he takes satifsaction in knowing he would've won his age group had he actually run the race.

13.11 miles / 1:43:07 / 7:52 pace

.28 warm and cool 

Not much running for me. Spent more time watching some kids run the 800. Track season is here! 

Windy run with the boys. Flipped with sophomore crew. Added a little on my own. 5.01 miles 

Ran Texas Roadhouse with the girls then a couple laps with Elinda, half laps with Ave and Em, something with Bungus. Boys "barked twice" so I jumped in with them for a new loop (to me). 5.14 miles 

Glad I ran a little extra this morning because I didn't run with the team in the afternoon. Too much sickness going around. 

PM1- Nice little cupcake (or something) loop with Rake, Tall T and TS. 3.27 miles 

PM2- Started at the Dixie Center and went up past the skate park. Then just kind of went with the wind to get 5 miles. 5.1 miles 

Started the week with Ross so might as well end it. Went suicidal and ran into some snow. It’s always an amazing trail but today was particularly nice. Ran into Reese at the top. Ross took a tumble and popped his shirt off to stop the bleeding. He wouldn’t even take one of my 2 shirts I was wearing. 11.21 miles 

FAMILY SICK, NO RUNNING 

Snuck a mile while kids were warming up. Warm up with boys. Then coach laps. Kids ran some good 16s today. 5.02 miles

PM1- Snuck some miles around the school. 3.89 miles 

PM2- Started with Rush then “got stuck” with the girls at a Stop Light. Had a good time getting caught up on stuff and things. 4.32 miles 

Peach Pie and 300s. Did my own little warm up then met up with the girls. Ran some 2's and 3's with different groups. My track season allergies are already here. 6.91 miles 

Down to the river with boys. Turned back right before Sullivan. Surprised I was able to keep up with some stomach problems. Extended track minutes with Holt and Tall T, then with Jake. 7.86 miles 

Showed up late to the party so I jumped in with the boys about a mile in. Quickly realized I wasn’t going to be able to keep up. Saw the girls heading towards Rainbow and tagged along for a sandy/slippery adventure. Threw down some faster miles for the 2nd half. 11.01 miles
