Shorter day today.  7 plus strides which felt great.  Excited to race tomorrow!

Got to the race and felt fine.  Warmed up and then did some strides.  Went out and our coach said for us to try going for it so I went with the top pack again.  Held first mile and went 4:57.  Then my back tightened up pretty bad that I had to back off from there.  By the end I did not care and didn't even kick it in til I heard that carson clinger was right behind me and decided that I didn't want him to beat me so I kick the last 40 meters.  Pretty bad.  Gonna go see some byu athletic trainer soon so that hopefully he can fix up my back. 

Just a usual distance run.  Did 5 by myself cuz I had work, then I ran 2 with the team and then 2 back alone.  Didn't feel too good, hopefully I'll be able to bounce back.  

6x800 today. Felt fine on the first 3, 4th one my back tightened up but with the two minutes rest it calmed down. 5th felt great and then 6th my back tightened a bit but went fine. Hit 2:29, 2:23 2:24 2:26 2:22 and 2:15 for the last. Coach said we could speed up a little after 400 and then kick it in with 200 to go.

3.08 more at night,  Also got my back checked out, and the guy found that I had a rib that was messed up, as in it wouldn't expand when I breathed he worked on that and also my back.  So I should be ready for BYU

Almost 7 plus 4 100 meter strides.  My breathing felt really good so I'm excited to see what I can do tomorrow.  My back was a little sore but not the pain sore that it has been. 

Quite happy with my race today! Went out making not to go out too hard but stuck within 10 meters of the leaders.  Just followed them til about 1.8 miles they put a gap on me but not too big.  Ran the last mile with Josh Peters of Davis breathing down my shoulder.  I was gaining on Grant but just didn't quite have it.  But a super good thing is my back wasn't pained, it was just sore!  

Shout out to everyone who killed their race. Special shout out to the one and only Ryan Raff who won the meet as well as Jaiden Melendrez who took second!
