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.

Today I didn't run at all because last night I had a seriously bad bloody nose that I had to go to the ER. Once I got there I had my nose cauterized. So, I can't really train for the next week. I talked to coach and we got somethings worked out.

3 miles today. Wanted to take it really easy the doctor said that I shouldn't elevate my heart rate too much. And coach thatcher said that a ten minute mile wouldn't elevate it so that's what I'm doing. Started with a .5 mile warmup, then jogged around the turf while the others ran the time trial. And ran a two mile cool down with those who ran the time trial.

4 miles easy today. .5 mile warmup, 3 miles at 10:10 pace, and a couple laps around the track just to get to four miles.

3 miles today. I ran the warmup with the team and after that they did the Chocolate Milk Mile Challenge and that was pretty entertaining to watch, but I wish I could have participated.

5 miles in the morning, we hit some trails and it was hard before the sun rose. It was good to get out and run further than just three miles.

Race: Dirty Hurty Half Marathon (13.5 Miles) 01:52:19

Today I ran the Dirty Hurty and it was a lot of fun. I ran most of the race with Spencer Klomp, Bailey and Lily. I felt really good and didn't want to go too fast and risk getting a bloody nose. So the first 2 mils were around 9:30, then the next two around 9:00, and the next three were around 8:00. After that we hit the aid station and stopped to refill. I was feeling really good and started the last half. I finished at a time of 1:52.19 and that's a lot better than what I thought I was going to get and it is reassuring to know that even after I finished I felt like I could have pushed it a lot harder. But averaged 8:34 miles. Congrats to Sage for winning the race.
