Am -  3.9 easy.  Had a lot of energy, wasn't as bad as most mornings.

Pm -  Long run down on the river trail.  Decent run, until the last 4 miles or so my stomach hurt like satan and I had to take a few breaks.  Ended up like 15 minutes behind my team so the end was solo.  Pretty lonely.  Saw a few majestic Great Blue Herons grazing on water plants.  Ended up 9.9 miles @ 7:08 pace.  Added on a mile of barefoot striders to get 10.9

Am -  easy run, 3.8 miles.  Legs felt so sore and tired.  I'm 18 today and unfortunately feel no different.  No crazy out of body experiences.

Pm -  Legs still feeling pretty trashed.  Just did another easy 3.8 miles, it wasn't too bad.  We ran a little loop up to Red Cliffs Dr, down to PV Middle, and back.  My awesome Kinvara 2's I got freshman year were on top of my car when I left for home, one fell off, and luckily some guy walking on the side of the road got my attention and pointed out the other shoe.  So i still have 1.  I dunno if I'll be able to find the other tomorrow, we'll see.  Sad stuff.

Am -  3.9 miles easy.  Felt pretty decent.

Pm -  Cool interval workout today.  Did intervals at a few different distances that added up to 5k.  Warmed up 15 mins then got on the track.  Started out with a hard 100m. Then got right into a 1000m and my goal was 3:10.  Cruised in for 3:12.  I was about 10 seconds ahead of my team so it was lonely today.  Did another 1000m and got 3:11.  Then a hard 400m, 1:04.  Then back to 2 more 1000m.  My legs were a bit tired now, but I was able to relatively easily bust out 3:09 and 3:09.  Did another 400 and got 1:03.  30 second rest then all out 100m to finish.  Cool down 10 minutes to 8.2 miles.  Leg muscles feeling sore after this one.

Am -  3.8 miles at a easy pace.  Think I might have strained a tendon on the inside part of my ankle, it hurt pretty bad.

Pm -  Nice 3.9 miles, an out and back into Green Springs to my church.  A lot of us seniors who have Coach Holt's Current Issues class took a test on the computer that shows our political views and which presidential candidate is closest to us.  So we were discussing that stuff the whole time.  Turns out my views are centrist overall and most closely align with Marco Rubio.  Cool beans.

Am -  Easy 4 miles.  Had a failed attempt at trying to scare others on the team.

Pm -  Beast Halloween run to Artic Circle to grab an ice cream cone.  For my costume I dressed up as Hell Raiser.  3 miles.

Later went to Jason's Fun Run.  I truly pushed myself to my limits.  My mind was strained to the max and my body is physically destroyed.  It was the hardest athletic events I've ever undergone and I have emerged a true hero.

Am -  Drove up to Cedar to watch Big Sky Championships.  Went early though and did a workout at bicentennial park.  Warmed up a bit, then did 5 minutes of tempo.  Changed into spikes and we did 10*400m.  Goal pace was 1:12-1:14 at first.  I felt great the first 5, then after a 5 min jogging rest, did the last 5.  They were a bit harder and faster, more like 1:08-1:10.  Ran 1:03 on the last oneand it felt supreme.  My teammates also did really prime, good day to day.  Cooled down a bit back to the race to 8.8 miles.

Shout out to Hayden Hawks, Big Sky Champ!  That race was fun to watch, SUU is beast.
