Fine run.  Best distance run of the week by far.  black trail plus timberline loop.

easy mileage and gonna be the high until region.  Also shout out to craik who won our singing contest while we were running by his beautiful rendition of Baby by Justin Bieber lol.

Rough workout.  In the morning which I don't like plus it was 33 degrees when I left for running.   10x400, pretty slow.  went 70, 67, 66, 65, 66, 66, 67, 66, 67, 69.  Then had to ice after which was cold.

My tummy was rumbling and did not feel good.  I'm hoping that I'm not getting sick.  Also shout out to Ali because of the great post on Ellie's insta and also cuz she said she was getting a FRB. 

Achilles was killing for the first couple miles, but then I guess it warmed up or something cuz then it was just a dull throb and the best part is that I could do strides without any additional pain!  Pumped for region and hopefully I feel good.

Shout out to mi hermana because she got called to Arequipa Peru on her mission!

Don't even know.  Got to the race, chilled, warmed up, and then put spikes on and they hurt my achilles really bad.  Decided to wear the spikes despite the pain.  Hurt the entire race.  Went out, Patch, Casey, and Mckay all put some distance on immediately, so then it was a pack of 3 LP, Ryan Raff, and a couple other guys I think.  Went to Seth, Ryan, Ethan Matz and I. Seth and Ryan pulled away so Ethan and I were just racing the whole time.  So shout out to him.  Don't know the first mile but came through mile 2 at 10:21 so that means I hit 3 miles at 4:54. Cooled down.

1 easy up at park city while waiting for the half people to come by.

4 easy with Collin after Park City.  Also saw the U of U team out running.  and shout out to Skyridge for being awesome at carving pumpkins.  Plan is more later but idk if it will happen.

Good times on Bonneville.  Pretty fast besides the first 2 miles.  

4x600 hills plus 6x400's.  Hills were raging fast.  We normally do them right around 1:58 but today it was 1:52, 1:53, 1:48, 1:53.  Then we ran to the track and did the 400's.  hit 66, 66, 64, 65, 64,then 67.  Pretty good workout today.  Achilles was a little tight but nothing too bad. Iced after.

Long run on the MCT.  Pretty boring and morning runs are not the best.  

Nice easy 6 miles.  To AF and back with a lap on the field.  Had some great "Crali" conversations.  They were hilarious and Craik had some funny sayings. And we basically roasted craik the whole time and just joked about Crali.   "Craik you're alergic to bee's so are you going to need steroids after sadie's with Ali byBEE."  "At least you weren't alergic when you got stung on your mouth so you can still kiss"  and many more. 

Also ranked 17th in the nation... We need to step it up.  Pass Davis, Ogden, and Timpanogos.

6x400, then 2x200, then 2x400, then a 200, then a 400, and then finished up with a 200.  Didn't feel that great cuz it was morning and I'm sick of 400's but coach said that it was the last 400 workout for a while so that's nice.  

Black trail plus dumpster.  Super pumped for Sadie's with Elsie today. My number may be going up tonight. jk not really but Crali's number might go up!!! 

Sadie's was dope!  Day date was sick, dance was awesome, and the after dance was splendid.  Shout out to Elsie for the most excellent time!

Good run with some strides at the end.  Had a good talk with Trevor and Steven about their love life then constantly roasted Craik for his beautiful doorstep scene.  A good ol' "cya later" and no hug.  Always good stuff.  Only thing that could have made it better was a salute... he needs some training done.

Easy pre-meet.  Super pumped!  Also shout out to Tyler and Jared for making a late night stop at my house last night.

Today was the day... I broke the tradition of doing bad at state for me!!!!  Lol, 23rd my sophomore year which wasn't actually too bad but I was wanting higher.  Then last year the good old 31st wasn't exactly my strongest race.  But today, I focused on that middle mile and was able to get through it fine!  Upset that I couldn't kick harder and get seth but it's alright, I'm happy!  Also shout out to our girls for raging and getting 3rd, just 16 points off of 2nd and 26 off of 1st.  and they got 3rd in the overall merge.  We got 2nd in 5a but in the overall merge we got 5th... so we got to work on that.  Got 1st team all-state and a medal so that was nice! Shout out  to everyone who have helped me get here and have made it such a good time!  Next stop: Southwest

Easy 6 miles.  About 4 with the girls then we looped around a different way.  

Only had 6 today but decided to finish up with travis feeney since we are both up at USU. Then the guys were doing their cooldown and so we went with them. Had fun with the team. I'm up with travis, amanda and a girl from oregon named allie. Pretty good time!

Wasn't supposed to run today but I decided to do any easy run with the USU team. Just 4.25 but for some reason my breathing was really bad. Good loop though.

Was up at Idaho State and ran with the team.  8 miles.  At first I'll admit I thought they were a bunch of chumps cuz they went their first mile at 7:30 and it looked like they were going to just keep that pace but next two miles were 6:45's and then the rest were 6 flat to 6:15.   Faster then usual but didn't feel too hard.  ISU XC team really knows how to party.

Bad run.  My breathing was awful, like worse then it was my junior entire junior year.  I only did 4 full hills plus I tried to do the fifth but I almost passed out which was quite the experience.  Got to figure it out cuz even when I'm not running I can't even breath well.  Cooled down a bit.  

Knee was hurting a bit and I wasn't breathing right.  Not too great.  Bonneville shoreline trail.

Went back to my launches because my kinvara's had no padding but they hurt my achilles still so I'm gonna get new shoes.  Tempo run, 5 4 3 2 1.  went .98, .81, .62, .44, .24.  Good stuff.  Felt much better from yesterday but still not too great.

Easy recovery run today. Alpine loop plus of course courtesy cones from artic circle on the way back. Also did weights which felt great! Plus the usual core and pushups.

Not too difficult but legs were a bit tired.  Lehi dip, first part was pretty slow but we were knocking off low 6 minute pace at the end.  Had pancakes after with some of the people who showed up.

9 on the canal.  

1 at work trying on a bunch of different shoes
