14th Male Freshmen Runner at Footlocker West (2014).

7th in the 3A 3200m (2015 Track Season/Freshman Year)

 

Freshman

This year was just a begining for me. First time being in the real workouts, first time racing in the real races, no more of the short middle school boys and girls races. I really started here, I was able to run with the first people to really make this team become nationally noticed. That was awesome for me to see and it really inspired me to be that much more of a better runner. Also during this year I broke the Freshman Records at my school in the 800m, 1600m, and the 3200m.

Cross Country 

3 Mile PR : 16:22 (Cedar Invite)

1600m PR :  4:36 (Desert Hills Invitational)

3200m PR :  9:52 (Pine View Invitational)

Sophmore

This year I was really apart of the Varsity team. For cross country I was mainly 6th guy, but sometimes 5th. I really was able to learn a lot from all of the seniors and really connect with them. We took Region and State and I metaled in some of the races which was kind of a new thing for me. Then, in track I was one of the top 4 distance guys on the team and was scoring points every race. I really improved on my times, but not enough to get any class or school records. But, I did individually win a race and that was awesome. I qualified for the 3200m and 1600m at state and took 3rd and 5th. And it was really a good improvement from last year.

5.5 mile warmup and then 6 x :30 seconds hill repeats with a 1.5 mile cool down with core and stretch afterwards. I would like to say that I felt great but I didn't. Nobody said that it would be easy, they just said that it would be worth it.
