3 easy in the morning to Hidden Valley.

In the afternoon we did our .5 mile warm up and were doing calisthenics when we had to go inside due to lightning in the area. We ran about 4 miles in there waiting for the storm to pass before Coach called it a day. Ran 3 more later when it cleared up, it was nice.

Lightning forced us inside again this morning. 30 minutes easy around the track upstairs so I'm assuming at least 3 miles.

Things cleared up in the afternoon so we were able to do our hill repeats. 6x500m water tower hill repeats w/ equal recovery. Great workout from the guys today, good competition between everyone that will make us stronger. My cumulative time for the 6 repeats was 22 seconds faster than last time, more than 3.5 seconds faster on average for each rep. Cool to see the improvement in just a couple weeks work. Some 200m finishes on the track afterwards and a short cool down.

3 easy in the morning to the Spectrum.

5.5 in the afternoon out towards Sunriver. Pretty hot but then it started raining after we finished so that was good. Grateful for this rare supply of moisture that has sustained our arid biosphere.

3 easy in the morning to Hidden Valley. 

In the afternoon we went out to Little Valley to do some dirt mile repeats. There was a pretty nice headwind for the first .5 mile, but it didn't slow us down too much because it was a slight downhill. It was a good loop, and it actually didn't even really feel as long as a mile, but it was. Cooled down a little bit afterwards. I felt good, and I feel ready to rock it out on Saturday. It will be a fun race.

Pre-meet stuff in the afternoon. 4.5 miles easy out past the Spectrum with 6x100m strides afterwards, then team night.

Race today. We headed up early to Cedar for the SUU Invite. I got in a 2 mile warm up with the guys before the race and headed over to the start line. The race went pretty good. I felt kind of flat, which was weird with the lighter week and all. I stayed pretty relaxed for the first mile, but I think that I just tightened up a little bit on the second, so I need to focus on running more relaxed throughout the entire race until I make that final move, then still run smooth to the finish. The team ran very well again, all 7 guys in the top 11, flippin' sweet! There weren't very many teams here outside of region 9, so our first real test against 4A and 5A competition will come next week at American Fork, where I think we can do very well again. I'm not sure on the time yet because the results haven't been posted, I think it was around 16:00, but I will change the entry to a race report when I figure it out.
