Shout out to all my boys for helping me become the ping pong player I currently am. #baller

| We did the Dream Mile and a Half today, and it was pretty good. From the start I could tell my legs were pretty tired, both from camp last week and not eating very much yesterday. We started out at a solid pace, I just tried to settle in next to Thom. So Ryan was in the front, then me and Thom, then I think Michael and Austin. We came through the mile at 5:35, and I tossed in a surge because the pace was getting a little slow. Thom surged with me so that was good. At the base of airport Thom settled in behind me and I felt strong to just power up the hill and it wasn't too bad. I ended up 2nd behind Ryan (or I guess technically 3rd behind Connor, but he did it after us because he woke up late) with an 8:40. I matched my PR, so I'll take it considering everything last week. Then Ryan, Kobe and I went to the Heaps for a drink and Ryan looked like he was about to faint and I think his blood sugar was low so we made him drink some chocolate milk and he was able to finish out the miles. Shout out to Mama Heaps for letting us get water and blackberries and such. |

| Medium Mileage recovery run today, 7 miles at 7:36 avg. It was a good run! Afterwards we had a lower body weight workout.
Some dummy working for the city turned off the SOLW so we weren't able to ice bath there today.
Shout out to Thom for letting us come over to make protein shakes and eat blackberries!

| We went down to segolilly for some pickups on the grass today, Ryan, a couple other guys, and I just did 3 of them because we are doing the team race tomorrow. They felt good, but my legs were pretty wrecked from doing weights yesterday.
Shout out to Ryan for letting us come over for ping pong after practice today

Lehi XC Team Race (2.89 Miles) 00:16:08 | Easy Miles | Marathon Pace Miles | Threshold Miles | VO2 Max Miles | Trainer 1 Miles | Trainer 2 Miles | Racer Miles | Total Distance | 8.32 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 8.32 |
| AM: Ryan, Chris, Strrt, Sam, Garret, Big T, and I all raced the team race today because we won't be there next Wednesday when the rest of the team does it.
The first mile was 5:15, a little fast, but solid. The second mile was 5:32, and because I was being dumb at the time I let Ryan gap me a little bit, so I was going alone, which made it harder. The last .89 was really weird, and the time for that was 5:20. In the last .89 I almost totally went the wrong way but luckily Jamie was walking right there so she told me where to go, then I missed an extra little loop because I didn't see the arrows on the ground, thus it being .89, not a mile. Ryan also took a wrong turn, but a different one than I did, so his distance was a little weird as well.
I ended up finishing with way too much energy for it being a race. It felt more like I was finishing a tempo rather than a race. I'm sure when I'm running in the pack and there are actually people around me I will be able to pace it better and push myself a little more, but from a workout standpoint, today was good.
PM: 4.32 mile night run with the guys and Justus and Hank. Shout out to them for running with us!

| 8 mi at 7:32 avg with Sean, Strrt, Ryan, Big T, and Nathan joined us halfway through. My legs were definitely super tired, but it was a good run.
Shout out to Strrt and Sean because today was the last time I will see either one of them for probably close to 4 years. Hopefully Sean visits every once and a while.

| We got back from lake Powell today and while I was there I found a sick river bed to run in during the week. Shout out to the coyotes for not eating me, you guys are the real mvp's. Also I'm now a freaking pro when it comes to wakeboarding, so feel free to take me boating. I also need to give a well deserved shout out to my aunt and uncle (plus they're kids for being freaking awesome cousins) for making this trip possible by providing all watercraft involved, and for feeding us awesome food. Another shout out to Strrt because he went to the MTC this week and he was an amazing person to have known, I'll miss him but he's going to convert his entire area, so it's kind of almost ok. Anyway, today after we got back I went to airport hill to do the workout, 3 sets of 3x90 sec pickups up the hill. I got to the top of the hill every time, but my paces were super slow, like around 6:30-7:00, so idk what's up with that. It was just an off day. After I got the rest of my miles in I went to the SOLW, and just for future reference, 12 minutes in that thing go by waaaayyyy slower without your buds to talk to. Shout out to Papa Heaps and Sami because I saw both of them during my run today! |

| 8 miles at 7:32 mile pace, and it was a good run! We are having practice at 2:00 until school starts on Wednesday, so the heat was definitely present. It didn't really bother me though because I've been making sure to stay hydrated so that was cool, and it was awesome to see my team again, I missed them! All except Connor, so shout out to him. Then we went to the SOLW. |

| We had the highland invite today, and I have very mixed feelings about how I did. We warmed up 1 mile, then started the race. The first mile was 5:27, but a guy off to the side said it was a 5:05... He was very wrong. When I heard 5:05, I was a little scared because I thought I had gone out way too fast, and I didn't find it till after the race that it was actually 5:27. The second mile was 5:44, and the last .9 was at that same pace. After I crossed the finish line I was in a very odd state. I dry heaved multiple time, could barely keep my balance, and was in a pretty high amount of overall pain/discomfort. Obviously this is to be expected after a race, I just need to get used to it again. Our team (varsity) finished 3rd which was kinda dumb because it was timp, and we should've crushed them. All in all, it was a decent first race, but I have a ton to improve on as the season progresses. When we got back we went to the SOLW and scared the heck out of Sami, Bridge, Jaden, and Mickinley because it was dark and they were already in there. They pretty much thought they were going to die. Shout out to my boys who raced varsity with me today, you guys killed it. |

| Super chill 8 miles today, Austin had to stop to stretch when we were going over the overpass, so Kobe and I waited and then the 3 of us went to the cemetery to do a barefoot mile, and then the other guys showed up, so we went to the spring because it felt like we were running on the freaking sun. After we hopped in the spring we just finished our miles and sat around talking to Jamie for a while.
Shout out to David from Utah Run for not listening to my voicemail I left him because I forgot my phone number and botched the whole darn message. Also shout out to him for having me in for an interview today!

| After School: 4 mi with Connor, Michael, and Austin. We did one outside then 3 on the treadmills because it was so hot. However, kudos to the PV kids for running in that heat, you guys are freaking insane. 95 degrees makes me want to die.
PM: Westlake duel meet, we took it as a great opportunity for a tempo run and we just had a blast. It's a 2 mile course (roughly), and I finished in 10:46. We came through the mile at 5:43, super chill, then we picked it up a bit because that's what Jamie wanted us to do. My watch said the last .94 was in 5:03 but at 5:23 pace which makes sense and was right where we wanted to be. That run was so freaking fun. I need to approach my races with a better atitude because how I did today, not actually racing, is a great sign for this weekend at the grass relays.
SOLW after we got back because we have 800's tomorrow, and shout out to Sami for getting dunked by Thom 3 times... just for the record I only cheered for one time... but way to take initiative Thom!

| AF Grass relays was today, and tbh I kinda sucked. Just to put things into perspective, I ran a 10:46 two mile tempo workout on Tuesday, and held a 5:10 pace for 8 800's on Wednesday, then got an 11:05 today. My first mile was 5:14, then my second mile was 5:48. I didn't think I was going slower the second mile, but apparently I was. I'm definitely not happy with today, but everyone has off days and my legs were just roasted. The best thing I can do with this race is to learn from it and do better at BYU. I've noticed that my workouts have been going really well lately with regards to how I'm feeling and pacing and such, but it isn't translating to my races. I'll talk to Jamie about it on Monday to see what I can change, but until then I just need to not beat myself up over it. Shout out to Utah Run for hiring me and being the sickest place ever to work. Another shout out to Brady Taylor for coming and supporting the team today and to my boys who raced with me today! |
