| 5.5 with Coach Powell and his wife and Lauren again in the morning. A little tight starting up but things loosened up after about a mile. Everything good but I really had to go to the bathroom at the end of my run, lol.

| 5.5 again in the morning, this time with Coach Powell and Carson. Had to go to the bathroom pretty bad at the end like yesterday, I blame it on the pizza I ate last night and the night before. Went over to watch the race at Pine View later in the evening. Good stuff from everyone today.

| 4 miles in the morning solo before work. Got a text from Matt later in the morning inviting me to go run with him and Hayden later. I didn't want to pass up the opportunity so I got about 8 more miles in with them out on the trails behind Tonaquint Intermediate. I struggled on the uphills because my fitness isn't so great right now but overall it was a good run. I talked to Hayden a little bit and got some great advice about the transition into collegiate running and I'm excited to keep training and getting ready.

| Just an easy 4 on trails later in the evening because of the longer run yesterday. It was a good week of training and I'm excited for a much needed recovery day!

| No run this morning. Went to go run with the team in the afternoon. They did the usual 1600m week-before-nike time trial. I guess it's called the Harambe mile now. I didn't understand the reference but I guess it's some gorilla or something like that, haha, that's what happens when you're out of the country for 2 years and don't have social media. Anyway, I just wanted to jump in with them for a little push and to see more or less where I'm at with my fitness and speed right now. I didn't want to take it out too fast and suffer later so I started off pretty relaxed and just went with it. I ended up going 4:48. Not too great but not bad either considering my training right now. Good little push.

| Woke up this morning and was wayyyyyyy too tired so I smacked that snooze button like a red-headed stepchild. In the afternoon I ran 5 miles with the team and 3 more by myself after. I felt tired, but it was a pretty tough day at work yesterday and this morning so that was probably a big reason why I felt kinda drained. Overall it was a good run.

| Pretty tired in the morning so I slept in before work. Just an easy 30 minutes later in the evening. I actually almost didn't make it out for a run. My shoulder angel and devil were having an intense battle. Shoulder angel won, #blessed. I felt good on my run even though it was an exhausting day at work. I've been trying to bring down the pace a little on my easy runs and it's been going well.

| Late night so I slept in a loooooooooooooooooooootttttttttttttt. I got out around noon to run out by the Cove Wash trailhead. I started on Pecipice and worked my way through Sidewinder to Suicidal Tendencies. It was an awesome run. Perfect weather, some good climbing and fun descent, and some spectacular scenery! A little bit of core work later in the evening.

| 5.5 in the morning before work. Some normal Monday aches and pains but I felt good after getting into it. I got off work a little earlier today so I threw in another 6 with the guys on the ridge. Good stuff!

| Slept in so I got out in the afternoon for my run before heading up north for Thanksgiving. It was weird because I was working all morning, then we went to Don Pedro's to eat lunch around noon and I at some good mexican food, so when I started running at about 1:30 I felt like I was going soooooo slow. I had all that food in my stomach and I was tired from work so I was thinking that I would go through the first mile at 8:30 pace or something like that, but I hit the first mile and it said 6:30. Haha, it's crazy because I do the same run pretty much every morning, and I always feel like I'm going super fast, but I've never come through that first mile in the morning faster than like 6:45ish. I think Don Pedro put something in my chimichanga. Good run, I felt pretty good and really didn't have any stomach problems until like the last 100m of my run.

| 6.5 mile loop around my grandma's neighborhood with Alex, my brother-in-law, up here in Sandy. It was a great to spend time with family and eat some good food. I'm thankful for all of the little things that make life so good. Happy thanksgiving everyone!

| Good Saturday long run. Pretty much the same run as last week but we started from the road which added on a couple more miles. I had a great time running with an old thunder-cat-turned-thunder-bird. The blogosphere might know him as Ducote, but I know him as Sagebrush. A didgeri-dang good time with that pal. We’ll meet again on the battlefield one of these days.
I went to Zion later with some other high school pals and now my legs are trashed! Tomorrow will be a solid recovery day.

| 5.5 in the morning with the xc team. I almost didn't go because I felt suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper tired which is weird because I got decent sleep last night. I got back and almost fell asleep while I was stretching, but I had work so I had to get up. Man, honestly I was so tired that I had like 0 motivation to do anything. Kind of a bummer. Right now my throat's a little sore so I think I might have a cold coming on. I'll do my best to fight it! It may just be a lighter week for me this week.
