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.

Today I went to the Footlocker course and had to wait forever in line to get a shirt, racing bib, and shoe chip. The break played some volleyball while we waited. Then we ran the three mile course. Which looks like a lot of fun.

Today I ran the footlocker west race. As I warmed up I felt really good. As I got to the line I was still feeling some of those pre-race jitters. I did some strides to get ready. And got back to the line to wait for the gun. And the gun goes off and I ran out to get a good spot. As the front pack got together, I could tell that I was racing in the top ten for the first mile and I worked up the switchbacks, but as I got to the top my legs kind of gave out for a second. But I got a down hill to regain some strength. As I got down the hill I noticed that I was just behind the top ten and poopout hill was coming up. I knew that this hill was killer, and I still underestimated the power of that hill. I kept in that same spot till the beginning of reservoir hill and I went up that hill as best as I could, and passed another guy. As I reached the top of the hill I knew that I needed to kick it now or it would be to late. So I kicked at the top. I caught up to the people ahead of me and stuck on them as much as I could. When we hit the track I passed one of them and stuck with the other. When there was only about fifty meters left the person I passed entering the track had passed me back and then the race ended. I want to happy with my time our placement. But what happened happened and I must learn from it to get better.
