Easy 6 with Ryan, Guppy, and Sami on the Provo river trail up Provo canyon. Then we ice bathed in the river and made grilled cheese and played a little ping pong at Ryan's house. Twas a good time.

Incredibly rough day today... We had a speed workout, 2x(200,800,400,200,200,200) 200's at 800 pace, 800 at 2-mile pace, and 400 at mile pace. I started out great the first set, but the second 800 my windpipe closed up real bad and I straight up couldn't breathe. I died hard. Kinda scary stuff. Finished up on the bikes and used my brothers inhaler tonight.

Easy 6 @7:47 ap. Two miles on the grass at the cemetery and 2 150m buildups to shake out the legs. They're still pretty heavy, so I rolled out and ice bathed. I'm hoping I feel good for byu...

Did a couple miles at a time at the byu meet, and then premeet back at the school. 2x200m, 29 and 28. My legs actually feel good and responsive today, so that was freaking fantastic! I think I know why, and bare with me here.

I've been going to a psychologist for the past couple months to kinda get in a better mindset for racing and just life in general, and I went again yesterday, and the lady asked how my legs felt and I was like, pretty tired, but it's fine. Then she was like well take the next minute or so and pay attention to your legs and see what they have to tell you. And I was like what the heck? Listen to my legs? Lol so I concentrated real hard and the more I "listened" to my legs the less tired they felt. Then she was like what did you notice? Then I said that I should probably wear compression tomorrow and they actually feel better, but my quads still feel pretty spent. Then she told me to concentrate and think about them. So I did, and I kid you not. They started feeling fresh. Like what on earth is happening. So.... Listen up kids, your mind can do incredible things. Freaking listen to your body.

800m at BYU today, the goal was to qualify for state. I got way too nervous before the race, probably because I didn't have my earphones so I couldn't listen to the usual relaxing music... Race started, I got boxed in the whole first lap and I would had to go to lane 3 to pass. That lap was a 60. I tried my best to make it up in the second lap but because the first lap was that slow I couldn't really make it up. I had too much energy after I finished. It was all that first lap. Freaking mad about the time, but it is what it is and looks like I'm going to have to make state in both the mile and 800 at region. Crunch time.
