Went to the Provo River Trail with Collin, Guppy, and Sami. They were only doing 5-6 miles today so I only ran 2.5 easy miles with them and did the rest by myself. Another progressive run starting at 7:45 and ending at 6:25 with a 5:40 tenth mile, including 4 strides, 6:55 average for the whole run. Felt really controlled, one of those runs where I didn't want to turn around. Beautiful trail even though it is paved, I love the trees on both sides and the mountains. Wanted to branch of onto Bonneville shoreline but We have speed tomorrow and the others were waiting. Felt a little pain in my left foot/ankle on the way back but nothing to be worried about. Got back and ice bathed. Hung out with Sami for a little, since Collin and Guppy are dating and they're awkward. Sami is super cool tho so that was fun. Went to my house after and made grilled cheese and ate cereal. Best Sami in ping pong so apparently shes making me a bracelet. Great day

2.5 mile warmup, drills and strides. Workout was 2 sets of 200, 800, 400, 200, 200, 200 with 90 sec rest and 4 min in between sets. 200s were at 800 pace, 400s at mile, 800s at 2 mile. Felt really good, form felt great and breathing was good, mentally strong. Legs felt tired during the warmup but fine during the workout. Splits were 29, 2:15, 65, 30, 30, 29 and then 30, 2:15, 65, 31, 30, 29. Satisfied with those, especially the 800s. Just stayed with Connor and he paces amazing. Cooled down to the cemetery and did a mile on the grass there and then back to the high school. Found a ladybug on me while I was in the cemetery bathroom, that's a first, I don't know what happened to it tho, it could still be on me. After I got back I biked for 25 min with 1 set of 1 min, 4 min, 2 min, 1 min with 90 sec rest. Lifted lower body with Austin

Good run, about half on the rail trail and the rest on the roads around it. Started out slow and tight but got warmed up and cruised, 7:03 average including 3 buildups towards the end. Biked for 20 with 6 min uphill, 6 min downhill. Did some upper body and stretched, hips and glutes are sore from yesterday's lifting. More upper body tonight and maybe a jump rope workout.

Drove to Art Dye Park with Collin and ran around there. First mile I led Collin on a wild goose chase on these trails and through these weeds, I had no idea what I was doing but it was fun. Except for when I slid down the hill, but no worries the tree stopped me before I died. And then I got whacked by a stick in the ground somehow on my Achilles. Yeah that mile was like 9 minutes. Did some on the golf course, there was a lot of people but we didn't get yelled at so it was a success. After that my Achilles started bugging me so I rolled it out a little when we got back to the car. Finished up the last 2 miles and did strides, rolled out. Achilles felt better, hoping it was just from the twig because I haven't had any problems this whole season. It was just really tight and burning but my calf felt loose, kinda weird but not worried

Went to BYU to watch. There was a bunch of lighting delays so we left. Got back and did a mile then pre meet. 2 strides, 400 in 64, 200 in 31, 2 starts. Finished to 6.5 then did 15 min on the bike. Legs felt great, chipotle in my stomach did not

Warmed up 1.5ish then strides. Felt really good before. Gun went off and I got out and led the first 200 cuz I didn't want to come through in a 70 and no one else was taking it. Came through first 400 in 63 which was good ended up in about 8th and stayed there until the last lap when I moved to 4th. Finished in 4:21 and I was so hyped. I felt so strong and controlled during the race, I think mostly because I was focusing a little more on form and I stayed mentally tough. Goal was to go 4:22 and qualify for state so I'm happy I got that. Finally had a break through race and feel like the hard work is paying off. Confident I can go under 4:20 and 9:25 at state. Cooled down to 9 miles with Thom. Probably won't race at region since there's a pretty small chance I'll qualify in the 800.
