6am -  3 miles.  I felt decent and the pace wasn't too bad either.  Did some plyos after.

3pm -  9 miles total.  2 mile warmup and then 4 mile repeats.  My goal was 5:17.  I was feeling a bit nervous about this since my last mile repeats workout was garbage.  But it was in the afternoon this time so I didn't have a problem.  First was 5:20.  Then 5:26.  Then 5:16.  Pretty hard and I didn't hold back.  Then a 5:12.  I kept my pace the first three then went hard as I could the last lap.  Hung around at the discus ring for a while and did that.  I got 77'3".  The discus coach said I was using like 1/3 of the power I could get so maybe I could be okay at discus.  It's fun, I want to do it at track meets.  After that me, Paul and Jake got our cooldown in, 2 miles.

6:30am -  1.5 miles.  PTT hurt so I cut it short and went back and did some quick exercises before yoga.

3pm -  5 mile trail run and striders.  We went up to green springs park and did Ice House trail.  Man, the hill was so exotically hard.  It was difficulter than I remember.  The view at the top was extremely infactuating.  When we did striders at the park, the grass felt so exquisit on my feet.  I went and got a drink and it was so soothing to my parched pallet.

6:30am -  3 miles.

3pm -  10 400m repeats.  1 to 2 minutes rest between each one.  My goal pace was 1:08.  I got 1:10 on the first, 7 1:08's, 1:07 and 1:06.  It was pretty hard, but I got in a pretty good groove around #7 and the rest just felt easier.  We, the team, took our heart rates every three repeats.  I guess it was supposed to be under 120 but mine was in the 150's every time.  zack got the record of 168.  impressive.   2 miles warm up and 2 miles cool down.  7.6 miles total.  Lifted weights after.

8am -  10 mile run into washington fields.  During it our team did a 20 minute tempo.  I did good, I kept up with coach for about half then he pulled away a bit.  It was hard.

4pm -  It was super windy so I went to run in the rec.  No super feet so my leg hurt really bad.  So I did 1.5 miles.  Bad idea.

8am -   6 400's.  They were extremely hard.  they were supposed to be at 800m race pace.  They were all a bit slower than that but I wont say its a failed workout.  I was left dead tired when we were. done.  2 miles warm up and cool down.

3pm -  I did 3 miles over by red hills parkway.  I went up gravevine, then turned and went under the freeway and just kind of explored.  It was pretty good.

8am -  Good hill workout today.  I ran with the team and we did 3 sets of 800m, 400m, and 200m.  First a 2 mile warmup then the workout.  I was just feeling medium good today but i pushed hard up with Abel.  My last set was especially good.  2 miles cool down.  My body was beat after. 9.25 total

4pm -  3 mile loop what I'm gonna call the golf course loop.  because I did a full loop around the front nine of green springs.  It was good.  I did yoga after.

6:30am -  3 miles.

3pm -  1.5 mile warmup first off.  Then 1600m repeat workout.  The wind was a bugger.  My times were 5:18, 5:21, 5:21, 5:13.  The middle 2 were slowed a bit by the wind.  Coach had us work on running really close to each other to block the wind.  I ran hard on the last, and Andrew pushed up with me and Paul good.  Lifted weights after to get strong and cut.

6:30am -  3 miles.

3pm -  4 miles easy and 4 200's.  During the run my left tibia hurt worse that usual.  It's been pretty sore this week.  During the 200's me and Cam practiced our 200's handoff for the medly tomorrow.  we couldn't get the timing down until the last one.  but I was so close and I tried to lean to get it to him and I was too far foward and I went down.  Sliding into home plate style.  I got hardcore scraped up.  Ruined my white tanktop, its all bloody.

6:30am-   left tibia bugging me.

3pm-  Did the 1600 in the Hurricane invite today.

Got to the meet and chilled for like an hour.  Then me and the mile crew went and did a warmup of 1.5.  I felt pretty good.  The weather was perfect, 70's and NO WIND like last time that was horrible.  

Race started and I got behind Byron and Abel.  I did my first lap as a 1:08.  Second lap I was trying to stay on the inside and just keep my pace.  Cedar kid kept trying to cut me off.  Second lap was a 1:09.  The third lap I just tried to keep going I don't really remember the second half of the race.  With 300m to go I made a move and moved up to a Lone Peak kid with long blond hair.  Ben Powell passed me with 100m to go and I just couldn't kick like usual, I worked really hard the 3rd lap.  But it ended up as a good pr with 4:37.  4 seconds to go for state qual.  Im so close, I'll get it.  

Cooled down 1.5 miles.   Later did the 200m in the medly relay.  It was pretty good; 25 seconds.  We almost got dq'd cuz paul lifted up his arm in celebration after he came from 30m behind in the 800m and passed a guy at the very end for 1st in the heat.  That was bogus.

12pm -  Did the 800m in the Hurricane meet.  

Warmed up 1.5 miles with Abel, Cam, Jason, Josh and Dallin.  Then did about .5 mile of strides and whatnot on the field.  Ready to roll

I got out pretty well at first.  I had talked myself up a lot before so I was ready to hurt.  I just went with the flow for the first lap.  Not sure what the split was.  At the start of the second lap I made a move that 100m and passed jon (dhells)  and gained on Abel.  200m to go I went to try to make a move on Abel, but he heard me or something and kicked it in and I finished right behind him.  Pretty good PR for me in this event.  I'm pretty close to qualifying for state.

Cooled down a mile with cam and jason and krenny.  My left tibia was really sore so this is all for today.

6:30am -  3 miles.  throat kinda hurt

3pm -  4*1600m and 2*300m.  Started off by 1.5 mile warm up.  I developed a cold over the weekend and my throat and lungs were burning.  We started the repeats and it felt a little better.  My goal was 5:16 about.  The first was 5:17, pretty relaxed not too bad.  The second was 5:22, a little mental lapse there.  Third was a 5:17, hard but not killer.  Final was a 5:14, it was a hard push, but I am feeling good mentally lately so it was good.  I have made sure I bring my heart to practice everyday.  The heat was getting up there, it felt like it was probably in the 80's today.        After the 16's  was 300's all out with full recovery.  I got 42 and 42.  I went to cooldown but I felt pretty crappy and only did a mile.  I will take morning runs off till this cold goes away.  8 miles total.
