awesomeness

randomly ran into my friend while I was running so it was nice to have someone to run with. The last mile of the run was a pretty steady uphill, so I gave the hill a pretty good push. I need to wake up earlier in order to get more miles in.

Today was the smoothest I have felt, I was running fast, without working insanely hard. Seems like things are slowly coming together. Awhile ago I signed up for the Snow canyon half which is about a month out, I did it mainly to give myself a goal to work towards, Come race day I will have only been running for about two months, so could be scary, but it has given me motivation to run everyday, I just need to start getting longer runs in.

Low mileage so far this week, probably just from me being lazy. The run was good though, I had lots on my mind and it was good to clear my head.

I tweaked my hip today at work, tried to run a bit, but it hurt pretty bad and don't want to get injured. I iced it, and I am hoping that i can run tomorrow.

It was a nice day outside, ran after work. Decided to run two of the miles a little quicker, those miles were 6:30 and 6:21, it felt super easy so thats a good sign! My legs felt great today, my hip didn't bother me at all.

Good run after class again. Took a new route, and found myself on some creepy path, but I lived to tell the tale. I also found a treadmill in my complex, so that way I don't have to run outside on those reallly cold winter days.

Ran on the treadmill tonight while listening to once a runner. It was some nice motivation to listen as I ran, but wow it felt like I was running forever. At the beginning I felt like I was going to trip on the treadmill or something, but figured it out in the end. After that I biked a mile or two to cool down, then lifted weights.

Nice run tonight, legs felt pretty good. I plan on going on a longer run this weekend.

Quick run after work.

Ran a 6 mile tempo today, 2 of the miles down the canyon. It was a nice confidence booster for the half marathon in a couple weeks. I did the six miles 6 miles with a 6:58 average. My legs felt so smooth today. It didn't feel too labored, I just felt like I was in a groove. Then just a warm up and cool down. What a great day, Also BYU today at pre nationals did amazing, wow! 

after a long day of flying to Baltimore i ran to give my legs a nice shakeout after sitting for so long. Hopefully I can get a run in tomorrow, I might be in meetings all day.

No run today, as i was stuck at the airport all day. I guess i could have ran up and down those flat escalator things, but probably would have got some weird looks. I finished born to run on the plane though, I really enjoyed it the second time through. My plane landed at 1 in the morning so my body is pretty tired.

This week has been really stressful, running is the only time I have to clear my head. my right felt super tight most of the run tonight, Stretched it out a lot after the run. Congrats to the PVXC teams on doing so well at state, y'all are amazing!

Had kind of a frustrating night due to midterms, so I went on a run to help clear my head. Did about 6 fartleks throughout the run. My right knee still feels a little funny, it dosen't hurt, just feels funny. Also I will be in St. george this weekend, if anyone wants to go on a run!

Long day of work and then driving down to st george. I got out for a run pretty late, but it felt nice after sitting in the car.

AM-4 Ran with matt today, it was a good chill run. Really nice to have someone to run with, it makes it feel a lot easier. The last mile was all uphill and matt decided he wanted to finish hard, because our last mile was about a 6:40 uphill.

PM-3 miles around the mountain.

I need to wake up earlier so I can get longer runs in. At least it was nice outside.

A nice exploring run, I ended up going a bit farther than I had planned. Had a good uphill push for about a mile. My legs felt really tired during the first three and a half miles but then loosened up.

Ran later at night. I felt pretty weak, probably from a lack of food, but my legs felt alright. I stretched a lot after the run.

Went and did a small workout on the track at BYU. Wow i am not in speed shape that is for sure. It has been a long time since i have tried to run a decently fast 400. I ran a 200, 400, 800, 400, 200. My times were 36, 1:15, 2:40 1:13, 30. Good workout, I want to do more speedwork and get used to going faster.

Ran late at night after an exhausting day. Average pace for the run was a 7:02, but after the long day, I felt like I was dying. I hope I don't feel like this on saturday.

Wanted to get more in, but the day was crazy. The run and the fact that the dodgers forced game 7 made it a good day though!
