One Mile at a Time

AM- 3 miles. Nice and warm, well, not really warm but running tights weren't needed. 

PM- Couldn't make it to practice because I had a AB Calculus practice test. Just ate dinner and I don't know if I can run right now but planning on putting in 4 ish. 4.2 miles. I felt sick the whole run and I think it's because I had this weird zesty Italian fancy salad dressing. 8:00 pace. Hoping for a 2:14 at Herriman tomorrow in the 800 and around an 11:20 for the 3200.

AM- 3 miles. 

PM- 4.5 miles. Mile warmup then the 800. I thought the 800 was going to be around 4:30 but it started around 5:30. Ran a 2:22 which I'm not that happy about. Didn't have any time for a cooldown or warmup for the 3200. Ran the 3200 with Jared, Benny D and TB. Jared and I were running together for about a mile but I pulled ahead. Finished 5th with a time of 11:25. I know I can go faster but for the first time running the 3200 this season I'm happy. Mile cooldown after. Driving home from the highschool with Jared we saw Zack and Josh so that really made my day complete.

AM- 3 miles. First run in the new Kinvaras.

PM- Jared and I headed to Lone Peak as well as Connor and ran with Zericksen, Jericksen, Jamison, Seth, Craik, Justin, Steven and Galen. We went 8 miles on what I think they called the Alpine loop. Pace was around 7:20 I believe. Ice bath in some stream thing after then played 7 on the line. It was a great time. We got courtesy cones from Arctic Circle on the run which was pretty funny.

AM- 2.5 miles. The weather was pretty warm.

PM- 5.1 miles. It started hailing and was freezing. Matt and I did the speed workout that we missed on Monday because we don't race until Saturday. Saturday I'm racing the 3200 and 800. Today we did a mile warm up then 5 600s hard easy hard easy hard then a five minute break followed by 5 400s hard easy hard easy hard and a mile cool down. On the hard part I was hitting around 5:00 pace.

AM- 2.7 miles. Ran by myself at 5:20 because I had a math review at 6:35.

PM- 6 miles with Connor. He was at PG to watch the UC Invite. We both race Saturday. Watched most the Invite after the run. Glad I wasn't in the mile because it was super windy and freezing cold.

Ran the 3200, 800 and 4x400 today at the Utah County Invite. 1.5 mile warmup before the 3200. I was looking to break 11 in the 3200 with a 10:40. The fastest seed time in my heat was a 10:38 so it wasn't a super fast heat. No body was going fast so I took the lead for laps 4 and 5 and most of 6. My splits were pretty good until 6 and 7. I finished in 8th I think. 10:54 PR so I was happy. Still room to improve though. I did about a .5 mile cooldown/warmup then ran the 800. I was in 17th out of 18 but picked up the pace and finished 10th. Ran a 2:20 PR. I was hoping for 2:17 but I still got a PR. Got pack to where the team was and Riley told me all the 4x400 guys bailed besides him so he got me, Ali and Brian. This was my first 400 and first relay. Our goal was not to take last.  Ali was the first leg and he ran a 65. I got the baton in 8th and took off. The 400 sucks. I almost caught 7th place but didn't. I ran a 61. I handed to Brian who ran a 62 and almost got us to 7th. Riley anchored with a 56 and got us to 7th so we accomplished our goal and each of us got half a point for varsity letters. Good meet. After I got Riley and Ali to run with me and Connor to Molly's. Connor got Asa, Collin, Guppy and Michael. It was a good time. 6.2 miles.
