Am -  Early morning today, we met at 5:30.  I went to bed at 9 but i can never fall asleep so i laid there for an hour.  So i felt a bit tired.  The run was nice and cool, we ran on the river trail for part.  and so that was all black.  Did striders after.  legs feel way sore.   i dont feel very tired though.

Pm -  Had an early out today.  After a quick pep assembly I went and ran.  Just 3.9 miles.  Jake and Alex came with me but most of the other guys waited like 5 minutes, idk why.  My ankles and calves didn't feel too great, more like destroyed.  Had a beast feast of food at PPC after with my homies.

Am - Easy 4 to Starbucks and back.  Felt alright, bit sore.

Pm -  Had a pretty good, hard workout this afternoon.  We ran down to the middle school to do it.  All the fields at our high school are under construction.  We started with 4*1000m repeats.  My first three were solid, like 3:19, 3:15, 3:14.  They were pretty good on a rough field with lota of hills.  Then my last one got kinda messed up, my stomach was bad and I went over to the seminary building to do stuff.  Came back to do 4 wave hills, and the boys had already done them so I did them alone.  I was hauling on the down and it was sketchy.  Ran back to the high school, ended up 7.1 miles.

Am -  Easy 4 in the morning.  Got some solid sleep, felt pretty good.

Pm -  Easy pre-race run in the afternoon.  Did a 3.2 mile run up into Green Springs, then 4*200m on the track.  I had a PT appointment during 5th period, so my hamstring, which had been getting tight and sore, felt pretty good.  Except for feeling a bit sore in my legs, I feel ready to roll tomorrow at Nebo Invite.

Had our schools homecoming parade later, which was fun.  Our team marched and gave candy to children.  I actually enjoyed it, I never have before.

Am -  An easy 4 in the morning before school.

Pm -  Headed up to Spanish Fork around 10 am, had a nice lunch at Costa Vida at 12:30, got up to the high school around 2:45.  Me, Alex, Paul, and Jake walked the course to see where it went.  It was completely different from 2 years ago at Maple Mountain High School, and seemed to be pretty nice with no sharp turns.  After that, was able to chill for a while, even read some Frankenstein for AP Lit.  Eventually got going on like a 4 mile warm-up.  I felt really good in my energy level and stuff.

Race went down like this.  Had a good start, I got into the front 20 or so.  After about .75 miles, I was in a pack right behind AF's top 2.  Ha, some kind right next to me said to the kid behind him something like, "get off my a**, you've been right on me the whole time!"  I just kinda laughed inside my head cause for reals, we were running a cross country race, I had been pushing and shoving dudes all over the place.  A bit after a mile, AF's 3rd guy broke away a bit and I moved up towards him a bit, and for the next mile I just worked right there, trying to not let him get out of my grasp.  At 2 miles, I was hurting, I had done a pretty good job not letting off the gas.  Olympus' 1st guy passed me here.  With 800m to go, I dug a bit more, and was gaining slowly on 3rd and 4th place.  I was just about 15 meters behind those 2 with 200 meters to go, when Olympus guy throws in a massive kick and battles the AF kid for 3rd.  By now I was spent, so my finish wasn't my best speed.  But I'm pretty happy with my race; there's a few spots I should have made a short surge to stay with AF and stuff.  But you know what they say; it happens. #liveandlearn

Fun race, our team did alright too.  We got 4th, just 16 points off 2nd place.  Our 2 and 3 have really stepped it up this season.  Unfortunately our 3 should be like our 5 or 6 so hopefully some more guys can step it up and we will beast and feast!  Going into the final part of the season; it's about to go down . . . .  Word out.

Am -  Stayed the night at Jason's Aunt's house in Salem.  Headed up to the state course around 9:30.  Legit was like a foot away from dying, Jason's mom saved us all with her mad driving skills.  At sugarhouse did a fartlek workout: 2*(1,2,3min) at a solid 5:15 pace.  The 1 mins were fast more around 4:50 cause we were going down hill.  The rest was good, I pushed hard.  Legs just felt a bit tired from racing hard yesterday.  Also did some downhill work on the downhill turn by the flower beds.  Total miles around 8.5, good day.
