AM: Sandy Classic 5K

PM: 7 miles

Today I ran in the 4th of July Sandy Classic, a long time tradition in our family. Started off the race with my brother (Daniel), Blake, and Zach. Started with a 5:40 pace for the first half mile and then brought it down. Blake took the lead early and kept the pace quick. As we hit the turnaround point, a kid behind us surged, trying to gain and lead and create a gap, but we covered the move well. In the last half mile, Daniel and I passed Blake taking the lead. Daniel started his kick which caught me off guard and cost me 1st place. Overall, I'm really happy about how the race went. What I would do differently is that I would have kicked with Daniel, and try to out sprint him in the final stretch. After the race I ran 7 miles alone around the usual loop.

Today I had a great run. We ran up at the Alta Ski Resort so we had some nice altitude training. We started off with a .5 mile warm up and then started up the road to the camp grounds. I ran 6 loops with Ian and then headed back down which gave me 90 min or 10.5 miles. In the evening I ran 4 miles while my little brother (Austin) rode his bike next to me.

I want to do that routine every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and then on Tuesdays and Thursdays do pushups and other core.

Today was a great run because for one it was hard and also I got to run with Kramer. We started with a .5 mile warm up and then ran 80 min (10.5 miles) with 8 X 1 min hard. It was great to be able to run with Kramer and talk to him about his mission and running.

Today we started with a .5 mile warm up and then started the tempo run. I ran 4 miles easy, 2 miles hard, and then 2 more easy. My time for the 2 miles hard was 11:25 whcih was not what I wanted at all. I'm kinda disapointed, but I know I can fix it by the start of the season. I ran home (2.5 miles) which gave me my 11 miles.

Started out today with a .5 mile warm up. Then I ran 3.5 miles easy with Jake which was kinda slow, but it wasn't too bad. We then ran 6  X 100 yd striders and started the core workout. I ran home which was 3.5 miles and I took that at a hard pace. I ran 4 miles around the cemetery loop with Austin. My shin started hurting again so I'm going to ice it tonight and watch it carefully the next couple of weeks.

Todays run up at Alta was probably one of my favorite. We started off with a .5 mile warm up and then started a 90 min run up Summer Road and around the camp grounds. I decided to take it hard up Summer Road and ran that portion in  25:00. Next I ran 10 fast campground loops, focusing on attacking the uphill and recovering on the hard downhill. Then I ran the Summer Road back down in about 18-19:00. My ending pace was a 5:33 mile pace. Felt good to get a nice hard run in, maybe I'll do more tonight.

AM: 8.5 miles + planks

Today was an awesome run. Started with a .5 warm up and then ran 30 min out and 30 min back with 3 min rest and 2 min hard. So basically it was a 12 X 2 min hard with a 3 min jogging recovery. Anyway I got to run with Blake and Tayte and I got to talk to Tayte about his mountain running and such. Afterwards we did 6 fast striders and 3 X 1 min planks. Oh and I don't know how many miles we did on the 2 min hard so I just split the total mileage and put half in the threshold.

Ran up at Youth Conference. 7 in the morning on the road and back and then 5 at night. The road has massive steep hills which made it a good challenging run.
