I got some good distance in today, and I was privileged enough to have adequate miles to run with Thom, Sean, and Chicken Nugget for a portion of the run. Shoutout to my boys Connor, Sean, Thom, and Brady for killing it at Arcadia!

I got in a quality speed workout today, 6 x 1:00 sprints up airport hill. I was only able to do five of them though, due to my lower mileage. I was able to stay pretty consistently in the top third of the group, right around Strrt and Matt. Of course it hurt pretty bad, but I am super glad that I am able to start doing these quality workouts again!

Nice distance run in the freaking snow today, what's with this?! We got more snow in one day in the middle of April than we did in the entire winter. That's kinda jacked up. Anyway, my run felt good, and my average pace was 7:09. I got some multivitamins and started taking those because to put it lightly I have been wrecked to the extreme the past couple weeks, so I thought I'd try something to fix it. I must have been low in something, because holy crap my life has changed! I had to force myself to keep slowing down today, when a couple days ago I could barely keep a 7:30. I'm looking forward to the Utah County invite this weekend! Shout out to sophomore Shaquille Walker from BYU for running a 1:45.78 800m, the fastest time in the nation and a new school record for BYU!

Premeet for the 800 today, I hit my paces for the 200's, 31 and 31. I'm super pumped for the race tomorrow! Shoutout to Garrison for switching back to distance, good choice man!

Sick race today, I felt so freaking good it was unreal. Note to self; always give your body what it needs to recover. 2:02 in the 800 today. Also somehow I managed to negative split, 62 then a 60. The first lap was nice, I got a little boxed in at the start, but who doesn't? On the back stretch I picked it up a little bit and passed most of the guys, and stuck with the leaders. The first 200m was 29 or right around 30, so that's cool, but I got stuck in lane 2 coming around the bend. On the home stretch, I passed more guys and got into 3rd place. On the back stretch of the second lap I passed another guy and was gaining on the leader at the 200m mark, but he really turned it on and kinda flew away. I picked it up as well and stayed in second through the finish. I felt great with a 5 second pr! Shout out to Kobe for letting me borrow his shades during my race, Connor for officially qualifying for state in the 3200 by 2 seconds, and Brady for finally getting a sick 3200 in the books!
