Half-Marathon - 1:24:30.56 (Handcart Days)

In my freshmen year, I lettered in both track and cross country. I also got the Rookie of the Year Award in cross country, and the Freshmen of the Year Award in track. At regions for XC I was 7th. At state I was 65th. In track at regions I placed 3rd in the mile and 2nd in the 2 mile. At state I was 17th in the mile and 13th in the 2 mile.

Sophomore year I was a cross country captain and I lettered again. I was 3rd at regions and 12th at state. At track regions I was 3rd in the mile and the 2 mile. I also anchored the winning medley relay team.

Junior year I got a stress fracture about a month before the cross country season started, but made a great comeback with a 2nd place finish at regions.  At state I placed 6th, and I broke 19 minutes for the second time in my racing history.  Team captain again. In track I shattered my old PRs and was doing well until I got a stress reaction.  After 3 weeks off I built my strength back up and performed well at state, earning 4th in the 1600 and 5th in the 3200.  After that, I was invited to the Great Southwest Track Meet in Albuquerque, where I took 5th.

My senior year in cross country I was a captain again, this time with Amanda and Natalie.  This season I was injury free so I got to run competitively at invites.  At state I took 3rd.  At Footlocker Western Regionals I outkicked a girl on the track to finish 10th, which qualified me for nationals the next weekend.  I beat both of the girls who had beat me at state in that race.  At nationals I took 22nd and beat 6 of the girls who had beat me at regionals.  Going into the outdoor season the first Invitational I attended was the Davis Super Meet where I qualified for state in the 1600 and the 3200, and I broke the meet record for the 3200 in an 11:01.29, the previous record was an 11:17.  I had a strong finish to my senior season and finally claimed a state title.  I ran the fastest 1600 and 3200 at state for any division, claiming the double crown in those events, and earning the athlete of the year award :)

Now in college, I run for the University of Utah.  I lettered my freshman season of cross country, and made it to regionals in the 5k in track.

Sophomore year I improved in cross country.  In track I raced the 1500, 5k, 800, 10k, and the mile of the DMR before repeating the 5k at conference and then the 10k at regionals.  Placed 28th behind a lot of seniors... so nationals next year!! 

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

 Run a 5k in under 18 minutes

Win state in the 1600 and 3200

Place in the top 5 at state in the 1600

Make it to Footlocker National Championships 

Make it to nationals 

Run sub 16:30 5k

Run sub 9:30 3k 

Break the school record in the 10k

Break the school record in the 5k 

Long-Term Running Goals:

I ran 6 miles on treadmill at Steiner. I finished watching "Finding Nemo". I wish I had thought of watching movies on treadmill a long time ago.  My shin that had a shin splint last XC season was hurting for the first mile.  It warmed up after that, but I think I should get rid of my purple asics and get another pair of the blue ones.  My feet are more comfortable in the blue ones, thy are a newer model of the other ones anyway.

We had our first track practice today.  We didn't do much, but some warmup in the halls and some sprinting stuff.  I think my shin hurts because of pronation, even though I have pronation shoes.  I tried to not pronate and it helped as the pain went away after that.  Afterwards I went to Steiner and did 3 miles on treadmill.

We had track again today.  We warmed up in the halls, stretched, and did a lot of core work.  I think I needed it.  After we did some drills we did stairs a few times and then stretched out again and ran around the halls again.  Then we went into the weight room to work on improving forms.  I did some weighted arm swings, a 6 minute abs circit (the 4 min. but do each set for 30 seconds).  I also did some squats, but those were hard for me.  In the next few weeks I want to get in more form work to hopefully do well at indoor meets and get me some good PRs.

We had track practice today.  We started with a warmup in the halls and some stretching.  Then we did some drills.  They were really hard for me and I went really slow on a lot of them, but I know I will get better at them and improve my form.  We ran around the block twice, also.  But on the first lap I stepped in some mud and splashed it all over.  When I went back inside I did some drills in the weight room.  One of them involved hopping on one foot and when I had to hop on my left foot I hurt my knee.  I could feel it pop when I bent it.  I might have done something to it when I slipped on ice yesterday.  In the weight room I also worked on arm swings and I did squats and the abs circuit.  Afterwards I did 2 sets of 8 strides in the halls with Bre.

For practice today we did some warmup in the halls and some stretching.  The distance runners went for a run.  We went out 15 minutes and back, we ran up Sunnyside and part way to Shriners.  That was about 4 miles.  I finished at about 29 minutes so I kept a pretty even pace.

I ran out 16 minutes and then back.  I went over by Sugarhouse and turned left at the street which was right before the freeway overpass.  Went up there a bit, and then turned and went back the same way.

Track workout today after school.  We did some warmup with the whole group, then distance runners did some conditioning in the weight room.  Then we went for a run, along 1300e to the flagpole at the U, and back.  About 3 miles.

The air was really bad for running outside today, so when the team went to the track to run I went up to Steiner and did 4 miles on treadmill.

This was my first indoor track meet.  I didn't get in a good warmup because I had to go to the bullpen, and then from there we headed over to the line.  The only warmup I got was a few strides.  I started in the third spot.  In the last 50 meters I got outkicked, but by .3 of a second.  Afterwards I did a cooldown of about 10 minutes, and I ran with Mackenzie for her warmup, and I ran with Alice when she did a cooldown.

I had a terrible headache today, and a not as bad one today.  I wasn't sure if I should run, but it only hurt when I put my head down so I tried running.  I went to the dreadmill in our basement.  I listened to the radio, and my head did not hurt while I was running.  It was also cool in the basement so I kept a good temperature.  Afterwards I did some arm swings with weights.

After school I did some conditioning in the weight room. I was planning on running at the oval later, but stuff came up so when I got home I did 2 miles on the dreadmill. (the .25 was from running in the halls as warmup before stretching).

Today we did some warmup in the halls and stretches with the group.  Then the distance runners went to Liberty Park.  There we did 1 lap of firemen and then a lap of 30 seconds on 90 seconds off.  Then we ran back up the hill to the school.  Afterwards I did some conditioning in the weight room with Bre.

For the warmup today at track I ran some laps in the parking lot with Amanda, since she can't run inside.  Then we joined the group for stretching and distance runners went in the weight room.  We did some conditioning there, and then went for a 20 minute run.  We went along 1300e going north for 10 minutes and then came back.
