6pm- Me and my dad ran in the desert up to Mustang Pass where we (the youngsters) saw eric gould last year.  I pushed it a bit up to the top, then cruised easy back down.  Down by the road the trail was flooded a ton and there was a little pond.  Maybe the water tank on the turkey farm road burst.

7am- Ran 7 miles out to Middleton and back.  Last two miles were tempo which were really hard cause of the hill by fire station and the hill back up to the school.  Really pumped but a bit nervous for the first race of the season.  Dont really know what its gonna be like or what time i'll get.  Excited to find out. 

3pm- For afternoon run today we ran the usual 3 miler from the high schoolout to Arctic Circle and back.  At first I just felt like i was gliding across the road.  Then the last 2 miles i had a horrible stomach cramp so that pretty much ruined it.  After we did weights and got our jerseys.

7am- Today we ran 3 miles on the grass plus striders after.  Not much more to say.

6:50pm- Tonights race was really fun.  I wasn't very nervous and felt good the whole race.  Even though I had sideaches during the warmup.  Very sastisfied with how I did and excited for the next race.  I was about 50 feet behind Red Leader the whole time and my goal was to beat him.  So I went beast mode at the end and did.

7am- This morning was a good workout.  We went down to hells hole to do our hill workout.  I woke up feeling a bit sore and stuff but felt good by the time we got doing the workout.  Coming back up out of hell hole was hard like always.  Then we stopped at a white church and got some water out of the spickit.  it wasnt too cold but i tasted really good.  Then when we got back we had already gone a little bit over our mileage.  Plus my mom had already left cuz she had to go to work and couldn't wait for me any more.  so i got a mile and a quarter extra today.

6pm- Normal 3 miler out to arctic circle.  After we did most of the plyos but no weights cuz we had to go to the runner center.  There we had pizza, got prizes and steve gave us tips on racing stratigy.  Good time.

7am- This morning we met at the trailhead by the dixie center.  I was really suprised when i looked on the pineview blog last night and level 2s only had 3 miles.  But it was fine with me.  We started on the trail then over the bridge but then decided to take a little dirt trail under the freeway.  100 meters later the trail was gone and we ran on the sand for a bit.  Then we had no choice but to turn around.  So we went back and went up the trail a bit then went back.  Nice easy run.

7am- 7 miles today.  We ran down 2450 street to the river trail then ran along that.  My heel wasnt too bad.  It hurt pretty bad on the warmup, but as we started the run it felt better and better.  The way back really was hard.  Plus i dont know why but my legs were completely shot today.  It felt like i hardly move them.  Today was not great.

3pm- 3 miles to arctic circle.  weights and plyos after.

6:15am- Started out on my morning run.  Passed my dad goin the other way about halfway.  Then a bit after my heel started giving me pain, whatever it does.  So i kinda jogged/limped/walked the rest of the way home.

3pm- As soon as we started the warmup my heel started hurting so i just took it a bit easy.  When we got back i told coach and he had me go to mark.  He taped me up and told me what to do and all that.  So at home i rolled it with a waterbottle and a tennis ball.  Then i put it in a bucket of ice water and that flippin hurt.  So tomorow is a rest day and hopefully i can run on friday and in the race cuz this junk sucks.

6am- Great run in the morning.  My heel didn't hurt at all.  I was really hoping it wouldnt hurt in the afternoon.

3pm- But anyways it did.  In PE we had to run a little bit.  I tried to take it a little easy.  But i didnt have the new supportive insoles i got in my shoes so the heel of doom started hurting.  So on our warm up it was fine.  As we did our run to green springs it hurt just a tinge.  I tried to do the 200's but after 2 of them, it hurt to bad so i stopped.  Tomorows our race.  Hopefully it wont hurt so i can race in the varsity race baby!

8:30am- Todays race was good and fun.  A little different since it was in the morning not like cedar.  I would say i did good considering i didn't have racers on and that i kinda have an injury.  It was cool to race on varsity and cool to win as a team.  My heel felt pretty much all fine until after the race.  I wanted to stay with matt and able but i just didn't have it today.  Overall it was a fun time.

6am- This morning run felt really nice.  It was a cool temperature.  But the best was that i felt great with my foot and all.  So that was good. 

3pm- Dude it was super hot.  I sweated a lot.   Believe or not.  Haha that rymes.  Anyways we did harts warm/cool and us level 2s were supposed to do 5x 3 mins but coach made me and paul do just three cuz of our problems.  The first one i stayed right about with hunter cuz coach said for us to stay with somebody.  Then hunter started fading on the second so i stayed with kyler.  On the last one i tried to stay with kyler but i was dying and my legs felt funny and i faded back behind him a bit like 50 feet.  After we lifted weights but i didn't have to do plyos cuz of my foot. (yes!)

6:25pm- I didn't go to morning this run.  i was just feeling exausted and needed the extra sleep.  Plus i didnt to work my foot to hard.  Any was we met at PVHS a 4:15 and did the 2 1/2 DI loop.  My legs were just dead from the work out yesterday.  The DI loop was a struggle and was behind the whole time.  Then we had the 2 mile time trial which was ok.  I ran a 12:01 which i guess was good, i mean i don't have any two milers to based it on.  My heel hurted moderately so i could have done better.  I felt really tired the whole time but i was able to push the last 300 meters and finish strong.  Then we had the harts cool down which was also a struggle.  After the race we had the parent meeting and the room was super hot.  So not the best day so ill go to bed early and hopefully have a good day tommorow.

6am- Today was a really fun day of running.  The morning was pretty fun.  It was raining really hard and we were all soaked when we got back to the high school.

3pm-  From 10 o clock to 3 o clock there was no rain, then right when we started running it started raining.  It was awesome!  Running in the rain is the best.  So we did 6 miles with 3 fartleks.  Our rout was up by sunrise tires, then up on to foremaster.  We ran along foremaster then back down and up past costco to pineview.  We did our fartleks starting at the new greek resturant thing, top of foremaster ridge, and by the dinosaur museum.  I felt good the whole time and no trouble with my heel.  I think the strassburg sock is really helping a ton and i love being able to run and not worry about my heel hurting.

3pm-  We ran 3 miles to the green springs club house and back.   Afterwards we did striders which we fun cuz the grass was pretty short.  Afterwards that I lifted weights.  I love lifting weights espescially cuz your body feels all good and tingley when your done.  Kinda like the holy ghost ya know.

8:45am- This race was good.  I was more nervous for this one then the other races.  Dunno why.  But at the first we had a good start.  It didn't seem to fast but us pine views went straight to the front pretty much.  Halfway through the first lap it was me, kyler, hobbs, and colton in a pack right at the front.  That was the plan, to stay together.  Then on the second lap about by the bathroom those three started pulling away.  I hardly noticed until they were like 30 feet in front.  Then the panguitch kids passed me.  Then Sunshine came onto my side and i had vowed to never let him beat me again, so i stayed right on him.  I stayed behind him till the last lap.  As we started to head south again to the top, I started to kick it into gear.  I passed Sunshine then at the top passed the second panguitch kids.  Going around the corner i looked over and saw the big banner so i just pushed it from there.  Almost at the end I was caught up to hobbs and sprinted harder.  But he saw my shadow so he sprinted harder too and we came in 4 and 5.  It was a hard race but the last lap I just felt great for some reason.  The best part was that my heel had no pain whatsoever so I really hope this foot injury is done forever.

6am- Pretty much the normal morning 3 miler to arctic circle and back.  After we did yoga and stuff in the locker room.

3pm- Today was hot.  Pretty much really really hot.  It was not too hard of a run but the heat from the sun made it a intense run.  For the run we ran 7 miles plus striders in the middle.  and a half mile warmup before.  We were gonna go to the east but i guess there was a bad guy on the loose so we went to the park by the sunbowl.  Then back.  On the way back we stopped by jasons house and drank from the hose and cool off a bit. That was the best part of my day.  Afterwards we all lifted weights.

6am- 3 miles. artic circle

3pm- today was 5x1000 and harts warmup/cooldown.  Total mileage was 6.75 miles.  It was pretty hot again today but not as hot as yesterday.  so my splits were 3:12, 3:12, 3:13, 3:17, 3:03.  After the 4th one everyone kinda faded a bit.  Then coach called the whole team together and had a talk with us.  He said there is no such thing as fear.  Its just something we make up in our head.  He said we've gotta push through the fear and not be afraid of pain.  I was really inspired and the next one (which was my last) i pushed hard and got 3:03.  It was a good workout.

6am- artic circle three miles.

3pm- 4x 2 mins and 5x400's with harts warm/cool.  I felt pretty good this workout.  I tried to remember about what coach said about fear and stuff.  So I just kinda blanked my mind and looked foward to the pain, knowing it was only gonna last a couple minutes.  On the 400's i was staying right up in the front so hopefully i was just pushing and everybody else felt fine also.  Paul is gonna be up with us next race and SUNSHINE IS GOIN DOWN!

6am- Same old thing.

3pm- 3 miles plus striders and .5 mile warmup.  This run felt pretty fast.  We were going a pretty fast pace i think but i was pretty chill and relaxed.  Us level twos just ran to the greens spring clubhouse and back.  After we did striders and after that did weights but no plyos yet.
