Getting back in shape!

Haven't been here awhile, but now that AP exams are over, I can finally dedicate more time to the things that really matter like running haha. I got new shoes last week, the Asics Gel Noosa tri 7 and they look like a very comfortable summer shoe with big air holes and nice cooling while still having all the support I need.

I was sore all day and had trouble even getting up stairs. I attribute this to the increase in lifting that I've been doing this past week. Just took a day off for tomorrow.

Today was the bear Lake classic Hill climb. It was just about ready to rain but it never did. It was a Individual time trial from Garden City to the lookout at the top of the hill. It was 3.5 miles. I ended doing everything wrong for this race which started with not being able to clip in the first 15 meters. After I finally clipped in, I charged too hard I cramped afterwards. I had to sit the whole way not being able to stand due to being cramped. Passed a few people up (1 minute starting time intervals) and was stuck on a really low gear. A little more than halfway past, I shifted up a few gears and realized that I could hold it and go a lot faster than I was going. I finished at around 15:50 which ended up being a far better time than I was expecting. Tanner killed everyone with a 13 something but lost by a bit to a pro rider.

I went to my brother's soccer game in Pleasant Groove and went another 10 minutes south to Provo to watch the 3200 of the Utah High State Championships, Good Job Conner! Afterwards, I went on a run around the BYU campus. It was pretty cool and had some neat looking buildings but I felt a little trapped in there. Found may out by finding a tunnel and the run ended up being around 4 miles. Later int eh day I ran up to old main and did some hill and stair repeats to and another four miles.
