| | Goals for the week:
Monday: Hit my times on the 1600s (really focusing on the 3rd). Going for times of 5:31, :29, :27, <:27 for a successful workout.
Tuesday: For the time trial, I am really pushing towards a 4:45, but will not limit myself to that. If I hit 4:45, it will be a successful race for me. Going to focus on pushing the pace (no matter what it is) at the 1000 and keep speeding up until the very end.
Wednesday: Going 24 minutes again for the AT. Goal Pace: 5:45. Focusing on the beginning of the 3rd lap because that's where I usually start to slow down.
Thursday: I think we're doing hills (right?) for 800, I'm going sub-2:40 on all. 400, going sub-1:15. 200s will all be sub-32. Feeling like these are going to end well this week, but we'll see.
Friday: Show up and have a nice run.
Saturday: 15 minute LT. Goal: 5:25. This time I'm going to hit my time regardless of who I'm with. Never going to settle; giving it a hard push from beginning to the end. Treating this one this week as a race.
Looking for nice week of workouts.

| | AM- 3 miles easy AC route. Showed up 30 minutes early for Byron so I just tried to catch up on sleep but it didn't happen. Felt really nice temperaturewise. My knee's been giving me problems the last couple of workouts and hurt this morning.
PM- 1.5 warm/cool, 4x1600s @89% (400 recovery). Felt really warm today. Goal time: 5:25. Hit: 5:27, :25, :32, :31. Props to Cam for catching up to me on the last one. I am really loving running with Paul, Nick, Andrew, Matt, and Colten for a little bit on these. Didn't quite hit it, but this is just my first time with a goal pace this fast. Last week's was a 5:33 so it was quite a jump. Plus the heat got to me today. Nice workout.

PV Time Trial (1 Miles) 00:04:55, Place overall: 8, Place in age division: 4 | | AM- 3 miles easy AC. Kind of quick and quiet today. Yoga afterwards.
PM- 2 miles warm/cool, Time Trial, 8xstriders. Ran a PR of 4:55 and let me tell you. Getting a time on the kosmin and actually running that time are totally different! Anyways, started out with Matt, Paul, Nick, Andrew and all those guys. Stayed there until end of second lap and the third lap is where I started to fall behind... I've got to say, I expected a lot more of myself so I'm a little disappointed, but I actually didn't feel like I raced very hard. Next time I'm getting 4:45 at least!

| | AM- 3 miles easy AC route. Legs are super heavy from yesterday.
PM- 10 miles w/24 minute AT. Super dead from yesterday. Goal pace was 5:50 but I went out too fast the first mile and kind of died the rest and ended up with a 6:07 average. Still a really nice push, but not where I want to be.

| | AM- 3 miles easy AC. We showed up a little late so it was just me and Byron for the first half. book discussion afterwards.
PM- 2 miles warm/cool, 10x200 @ racepace. Goal pace: 36.5. Times: 37.53, 36.66, 35.93, 35.80, 36.30, 35.85, 35.18, 36.32, 36.48, 35.22. Really nice and easy workout. Love fast track workouts like this one. Hit my times very nicely even though I'm so dead from this week.

| | AM- 3 miles easy AC route. Woke up this morning feeling a little sick and thought it would just go away as the day went on. Showed up a little late again, but easily caught up with the other guys.
Rootbeer Mile- Every 400 meters we drank a can of rootbeer. Let me tell you: this was the most painful thing I have done in a while! It sucked so bad. Went out the first 2 laps feeling great and running fast. After that, I just could not drink the rootbeer so I just sipped a little at a time... Still beat Byron and Abel though ;) I did it for Carter!
PM- 5 miles Trail Run... Friday? We went to Dino tracks which is by prospector and church rocks. I was trying way too hard today and was dying throughout the whole run. Rootbeer really got to me because I had the worst side cramps ever!
Turns out I really am sick. I have a fever of 101 and have been coughing and sniveling all day... After practice when I got home, I was even coughing up a little blood. Probably not a good idea to have done the rootbeer mile, but it was fun. Debating whether I should go run the 5k tomorrow... We'll see.

| | Woke up this morning feeling really sick (102.8 fever) and it was a bummer cause I had to miss the 5k! Already feeling better and my fever is going down so I may go running later. Good job to everyone who ran the 5k. I can't wait to run it next year! But hey: I still got a shirt for signing up haha!
