*Leave*A*Legacy*

Good 8 miles to discovery park and looped around.  Real great when we found a whongketball.  Like Connor I may be retiring these running shoes so shout out to his running shoes for retiring the same day as my running shoes.

Didn't feel too good today.  I've been having breathing problems so running is quite tough when you don't get enough oxygen in your system.  In addition my shins didn't feel all too good.  Did a 400 at 75 pace then did 1600 at 5:00 pace, 1200 in 3:40, 800 in 2:18, and 400 in 67.  First 400 ryan told us to go that pace. 

Went on the run and felt ok but after 2 miles my shins were killing.  It's been a while since they hurt really bad but today they were dying.  Turned around and made it back.  Iced them.

Biked down to Timpanogas High School.  Did it at a fast pace.  Took me 28 minutes to get there and it's 9.43 miles from my house.  Then on the way back I went slower but did 3, 2 minute sprints on the bike.  

Easy biking overall.  Biked with the team so not fast at all.  At one point we split cuz we had to cross a river so I went the road way and they went the dirt way up the hill.  It was a bit tiring doing that part but not that hard.  At the end we went around and ended up coming back to the school and doing strides on the soccer field.  I biked it except a I ran a tiny bit. Total of 10.3 miles.

Good run after a half a mile in.  Felt tired for the first half mile but warmed up and felt much better then I have in a while.  Just to AF and back with a little loop around the pond for a little more. 

Cold workout. Good until last interval.  Then I was hurting.

8 distance run

12x400.  bien tiempo

It was snowing and windy so it was long sleeve shirt, shorts, and gloves weather but I forgot my gloves so I brought a jacket so my hands would be ok.  I had to take it off after a while cuz I was hot but everyone else thought it was freezing.

8x400.  Coaches said I've finally started looking closer to what I used to be so that was nice.  Still not feeling all the way there. hit 65 for numbers 1,3,4,5. hit 64 on 2 and then hit 66-67 on the rest.

Down to AF and back.  Pumped for Nike.  

Good little tempo run with 3 min hard 3 off 2 on 2 off 1 on 1 off.

Good 3.1 mile shakeout plus strides.  Ran the course.  Did it at around 6:40 pace cuz we felt good and needed to get our legs moving.  Some team we passed muttered "haha we'll beat them in the race tomorrow cuz their run will kill them."  It was funny.  T-shirt exchange and pasta at olive Garden.

Good race. Wasn't feeling amazing but was prepared for the pain that was coming. Body wasn't where it could have been but mind couldn't have been more ready. got to starting line and after the gun went off I went out hard. First mile 4:48 right in the frontish of the pack next to camren todd. Got ready for the pain that always comes after the first mile and it was more intense than I was expecting. I slowed down and hit 10:00 for 2 mile. Then saw that we were in the race and could qualify for nationals and picked it up a little at a time and got up a little closer. Kicked hard but one guy passed me which could have lead us to the win but we got 3rd with 109. Good race overall. Feeling hopeful cuz of the tie with timpanogas. Exciting race though.

Mountain run without any seniors there so that was weird.  On the way back I needed to get my legs moving so I went a bit fast on parts.  Last quarter of a mile was around 5:30 pace I think. Ice bath after to help get the race out of our legs.

Felt sick.  Seth and Will also did so we think that Craik might have given us his bug that he had on the trip except worse.  Didn't run.

Easy run today. Still felt sick.

2 warm up. should have been 12x400 but didn't feel good.  Thought I was gonna puke so I sat out the 7th one and the last one.  Still did 10 of them.  2 cool down.

In St. George.Went to my sister's 1st soccer game.  Then went back to our hotel.  Then after we came to her second soccer game and Josh, Jake bybee, and I went running.  We asked Ali, Ellie, and Kenzie where they went and they said they found a sweet trail so we went that way.  We missed the hill to go up and went up a different one and got out a dead end so we bouldered down a cliffish thing to a trail that kind of existed.  Good time though. 

Went to my sisters first game of the day, Josh ran during this one.  Then we went up to the cliff area and I decided to run there.  Found a sweet path that was really nice.  I was going a bit fast but I felt good.  Probably around 6:15 average.  It was really cool and perfect running weather.

Good run.yesterday my home teaching conpanion gave me his old garmin. It is pretty fancy. It's the same one craik has. So I used it while we did bonneville. Felt pretty good overall.
