12am- Ran my first shift of the night and started out trying to break 5. But I was super tired, had been eating mostly swedish fish, and it was late (fair excuses) and got 5:13. Then went two more times till 1:50 and we were done for a while. 5am- I was pretty tired by this time around and basically tried to get the miles done without walking. During this one we had breakfast which was hard to eat cuz i was so tired. At 7 we did the dash for cash. My group was big and i only had to go twice.

| 7am- We ran down the road. Then along a trail. Then we went up a huge hill. Then we cut through a little neighbor hood. Then we stopped at a pond behind walmart and all got a big drink from it. Then we ran through the desert. Then Hunter tripped on a rock and fell on his face. Then we got back to the school and did 4x200's. Then the rest of the guys did plyos and I went home. We ran 6 miles total. |

| 6am- Woke up at 5:48 but somehow still made it on time. Ran 3 miles. 7:30pm- This race was alright. I was really set on beating Sunshine. But not today. Next time. We did our warmup and all. Then they started the race and we started to run around. I was doing good with Sunshine at first then I don't know what happened. I don't really remember much of the race. Then at the end dallin's dad said they need me and that i was 5th. So I sprinted and passed 5 guys. I was just ok with my race. On to wasatch. And coach, i have a question for you. Is 3 bean and cheese burritos a good pre-race meal. |

Then he yelled something like, "watch it you idiots. next time im gonna run you the f*** over!" he he he he he he he he he he. it was flippin halarious.

6am- 3 miles to arctic circle and back. 3pm- Sandburgs run. This run is fun. When we got to the pond all the girls started flipping out and ran away. But then we jumped in and got a drink. The water in that pond is so delicious. And cool and refreshing. It was pretty much the easyest run of the year. Really slow plus lotsa breaks. Simply 5 easy miles, nothin else.

| 6am- 3 miler to arctic circle. 3pm- 5.5 miles total. The workout was 4x2mins 1 min recover, and 5x400s 30 sec recover plus harts warm/cool. This was a good workout. I did pretty good considering i fell a sleep 8th period. At first when we did our warmup it was pouring and by the time we did 400's it was back to way hot. On the first 2 two minuters i stayed like 20 feet ahead i felt way good. Then fatige got to me and i just stayed right with colton on the last two. Hunter stayed pretty much up with me and colton, he did good. On the 400's I rolled my ankle 5 billion times cuz we had to do them on the field by the tennis courts. cuz the gate was locked. But i stayed right with josh and colton on those. Hopefully the guys did good up at murry. and girls i guess. |

| 6am- Got to start running again with the morning after me and my dad went on a bike ride last night. It was pretty slow but i really would rather recover than stay injured. 3pm- three super easy miles. Me and jake had to run with the girls cuz of injury. I wish i could go with the girls everytime. They go so easy and slow and I LOVE it! My stupid plantar was fine and so i will just ice it i guess. Im not sure though. |

6am- morning run to arctic circle. I felt like we went way fast and that i could barely keep up. It was probly the 4 liters of soda saturday night. but me and able were a bit behind and we had a good run. 3pm- 4 miles easy, 1 mile indian run, 4x100s, and 4 hill sprints. I felt okay today but after my foot was feeling pretty sore. so that why i have my foot in a bucket of ice water right now. but i was a good day of running, not super hard but a good workout. and it felt way hotter than normal today. oh and we had a great time with some pv haters/possible hellians in the parking lot of albertsons. hopefully they didnt report us for something, i dont know.

| 6am- arctic circle for 3 miles. it was good and good and me and andrew pretty much ran together. We were with the guys until a bit after we turned around at arctic circle, then they suddenly accelerated a lot. So me and red follower just had a good run. 3pm- 7.25 miles. michigans and 1m warm/cool. So i was ready for this workout. But when coach explained a michigan to us, Able wasn't sure exactly what to do so coach told him again. In there somewhere coach said that we did two sets of it. But i guess i didn't stay around long enough to hear that is was a joke. So during the michigan i stayed with josh and it was way hard but i could have made it harder if i didn't think that we had another one right after it. I could have pushed harder but i guess it was coaches fault. he's not perfect so its ok. |

| 6am- a good arctic circle morning run. 3pm- 4 miles plus 2x400's. then we did weights. so it was a good run up to green springs. then we did the 400's and those were fun cuz they were fast but not killer. i think we might have done them too fast, it felt more like a 800 pace instead of 1000 pace but they were nice. and i almost lost my life when i got stuck on top of the pull up bar when we did weights. |

9:30am- Pretty fun race at cottonwood park. We won as a team and i think i had a good race; it's hard to compare races in cross. This course was a pretty hard course but fun too. The hills were good to make it fun cause flat courses just seem more boring. The race turned out way good. It was almost like a miracle that i felt so good. The day before my throat was still burning like crazy, and me and ryan and able and colton and jason didn't fall asleep until 12:30. Any ways, once the race started the first part felt stressful cause i couldn't run where i wanted too, i just had too go around people and stuff. Coach and everyone had told us the place to pass people was up the hills. But the place I passed everybody was going down the hills. I just let my legs go free and everyone else kinda went fast but tried to control there speed going down. Halfway through the second loop, paul came up with me and got like 10 feet ahead and i told myself i was just gonna stay right here behind paul. But before i knew it he was like 50 feet ahead of me and getting farther. paul had a way good race, i could tell he really dared hardcore. Half a mile later i was catching paul and feeling strong. When coach said there was 400 left i kept going a little harder and going around the last turn i was right up with hobbs and paul. and thats how we finished pretty much. I had a good race but i wish i could have pushed it harder like paul.

| 6am- this morning we did a little extra than usual. we did the normal 3 miler then 4 hill sprints and 4 100's after. 3pm- This workout ended up great. It was the first time I have really pushed beyond my limits and dared to go harder this season. We had 4 30 seconders, 3 800's, and 2 1000's indian run plus 1 miler warm/cool. It started good and i felt ready for a good day. The 800's were harder than the 30 seconders. Then the 1000's really tested me. I was already tired from the 800's but felt pretty good starting out. When we started the second 1000 my legs were absolutly dead. When were about 600 meters in, i just couldn't handle it and i started fading, first next to matt, then back tell i was next to casey. I was ready to give up. but then matt and casey kept encouraging me and pushed me a bit, literally. Then casey said, "come on nick, dare to do this." That reminded me of coaches pep talk on friday and I sprinted back to my spot and was abel to finish strong. It was good for me and casey both to break through mentally like that. I hope i can be abel to find that inner push inside for the next few races, and really do good at cedar. |

| 6am- This morning we cut the arctic circle run a mile short and just ran around the parking lot when we got back. 3pm- 5 miles, 2x400. For the 5 miler we went up past the fire station up into the desert, then back down in washington were all the trees and old houses are. Then we headed back to the high school and did the 400's. After we did weights but still no plyometrics. |

| 6am- normal 3 ya know. 4:30pm- race at cedar high school. This race was fun and i did way good. I was able to beat my season goal which was to break 16. and our JV boys are still undefeated! I was a bit nervous for this race but i was able to stay strong the whole race. The starter people used the same gun and it didnt work the first time. But the second time it did and we were off. I tried to stayed right with our guys at first and did good, but when he said the first mile was 5:30 i was worried I started out too fast. So i decided to try and go faster. When we had like 800 left i was behind a desert hells guy and a page guy and kyler. So i passed kyler by the softball fields then passed the two other guys coming on to the track. Then like always I was coming right up on Hobbs. But this time it was my breathing he recognized me by and kicked it up to finish right ahead of me. It seems like mostly everybody did good. Especially paul, man what a race. Now i just need to try and stay with him next race. |
