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.

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.

Ran Mt. Seegmiller with Sage, Boston, Scott, and Joe. It was a great run with plenty of hills on the way there. When we got to the turn around we contemplated whether to extend a little to get to the top or whether to just keep it at nine miles. After we turned around we quickly realized that it was uphill on the way back as well. Stopped for a couple of Kodak moments on the way back. Overall, it was a good run!

8 miles easy on Rainbow Road. On a part of the trail it was a little soft so I fell off the side and my I-T band tighten up. Ran for a while and it loosened up. 8x100m strides. Kids Camp afterwards.

In the afternoon, I did some hard core rolling out and Aqua jogging to help with my leg.
