2 miles, I'm so glad to be back running again... my next race will be region on Oct. 7th. Just trying to keep my head level for that. After the run I did a workout on the elliptical, hill climbs. Up for 10 minutes and back down for 10 minutes x2. 10 min cooldown.

First day at SUU! Michael, Chris, and I got to the school at around 11:00, took a tour of the campus, had lunch at a delicious pizza place, drove up to a lookout with coach Limf to see all of Cedar City. It's so beautiful here... And the opportunities for trail runs are awesome. Dinner was at an amazing barbecue place which had free ice cream cones so that was a plus. However, after I went back for 3 cones and was heading for my 4th, the cashier got all mad at me and said it's only one per person... Lol idk how he didn't see me get 3 others... So unshoutout to him I guess. Shoutout to Sage for hosting Michael and I and being a stud.

3 miles at SUU practice, it was a good time! I got to see the training room and everything and that was cool because it was under the seating in the stadium! We had breakfast at All American Diner and that was fantastic. Shoutout to SUU for being cool.

1.5 mile tempo today to test out my legs, and it went well! I warmed up a mile, and then got started. Jamie told me to go between 5:20 and 5:30 for the first mile and drop it from there. I started on a street that went slightly downhill, and turned around at .75. First mile was 5:20, and the last half was at 5:12 pace. I was happy that I was able to drop the pace a little because it was slightly uphill, but I do wish I could've dropped it more, like sub-5 would've been nice. But I'm not complaining because I did it alone, it was my first real fast thing back, and I didn't feel too bad at all afterwards. Good times. Shoutout to everyone who raced at the Springville invite today, I was there to watch and cheer on my beast of a team for making through a hard week of training.

3 miles, faster than expected... Splits were 6:56, 6:11, and 5:36. I'm in better shape than I thought, that was very controlled. Runs like this make me excited for races. Definitely pumped, but trying to not psych myself out.
