AM- 3

 

Pm-9 Well got to the race and statred warming up. felt alright but after three miles of warmup all the guys went and put their shoes on i kept warming up i ran about 5 miles ish and i felt really loose.  I just wasn't feeling ready yet and needed time to think which i think helped. The race started and i went out with the lead pack of our guys it felt easy but then i got cut off and never saw them again i slowed a little on the last half of the first lap and lots of people passes me the last two laps i really focused on not anyone passing me but me passing others. At the end tried to catch reed came so close but my sprint was still good. Some positivies of today are that this is about two minutes faster than last year, and i had a good kick. Some things to work on are staying up front cuz i know ii can do it i do it in practice i just need to do it in races, and passing more.

Well I didn't want to run alone today, so i called up matt and he ran with me thankfully. We ran parkway loop. It felt really hot outside so we didn't take it that fast. It was nice we had a nice conversation the whole time just about diffrent things in life. Felt fine the whole run didn't feel bad just getting the miles in.

Pm-workout today! We did 8x200 and 2x5 minute tempo plus Di warm and cool. The 200's were all strong but not sprinting around a 34 each time. I was happy when we were gonna do tempo because i love tempo runs. We started the tempo and i wanted to get about a 6:30 pace. I was leading the entire tempo so i was hoping i was going the right speed. We ended at an average of about 6:20ish maybe a little lower. Then we had our two minute rest. The second tempo i was out in front the whole time again, I was just trying to keep the same pace but i was getting cramps all over. I pushed through and we ended at the exact same spot as the first one so i would say pretty consistent. It was a really good workout!

Pm-9.5 We ran the river trail run. We did 6 easy miles and then did 2 miles of indian runs i just felt nice and relaxed the whole time, even when we picked it up a tiny on the indian runs. We stopped and got a drink at 2450 i was soooo thirsty. Once we got  back to the high school we did 4xstadium hill sprints i did really good at pushing these i pushed really hard over the top of the hill. After that we had 4x100 sprints i felt really good on all of them could have had a little quicker turnover and shorter stride though. After had weights and then went to paint the town.

Also I have decided that we have the coolest freshman on the planet, they are so legit today had to be the funniest day ever. Yes our freshman are cooler than your freshman.

PM-7.75 Today we had a michigan i was somewhat excited actually. After the warm up to pizza hut we waited for the start. I really wanted to be one of the first jv boys done and get b standard today because i hadn't yet. The first 800 i was just trying to not get sucked in to going to fast but i finished a little slow in 3:07 i kept a stronger pace then i was supposed to on the mile and a half and came in to the second 800 about a minute ahead. The second 800 is always the hardest to me doing the speed change i think i did it well i forgot to look at my split. Then i went off back for the mile and a half, i am really glad i had kyler for this part or else i dont know if could have kept the pace. kyler gaped me by about 10 feet on the last lap before the 400 sprint. Coming onto the track it was really nice to look up and see i had 3 minutes to run a 400 if i wanted to get b standard. I really tried to change speeds into a sprint, i tried to but it wasnt really a sprint. I GOT B STANDARD HAPPY DAY 26:50. Today was a really good workout for me i also finished 2nd among the jv boys! I love tempo related workouts i always feel good on them.

AM-4 3 and then hill sprints and 4x100

Pm-7 Ran 4x30 seconds 3x800 and 2x1000 indian runs. I just felt like junk the whole time. I felt like i had no energy on the very first sprint, but i stayed up most of the time, it took so much more effort than usual.

Am-3 For some reason all the guys broke up into 3 groups weird

Pm-8 Had michigans with a mile warm and cool and striders. I was tired going in but felt alright the first 800 was really fast about a 2:45 the rest of the time i just tried to stay the same pace and not slow down. I got 3 seconds off my last time 26:53 wasnt all that happy but got the same as last time so cant be that bad, my hip hurt a little today though. Also 17 laps of tempo around a track if you ever think you might want to try it, i shall tell you it is boring.

AM-11.5 Well i wasn't going to run this far, but then my sister persuaded me because she is training to run a half marathon. We ran down this road without turning for like 5 miles it took forever. We passed part of the BYU cross country team on our run though....they were going pretty fast. This was the farthest i have ever ran! We didn't go that fast went about an 8 minute mile for kaylee. The weather up here is amazing to run in, i wish it was like this in St. George
