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.

3 miles this morning.

8 total. .5 mile warmup, calisthenics, 2 mile warmup, strides, 3x3:00m with surges (each about 1000m) and inbetween each 3:00m we had a pretty much all out 400m. After that we finished with 2x200m finishes. Cool down for mileage. Felt petty ok today, but I just need to hydrate more.

3 miles in the morning.

10 miles towards the Quartz Mine and an adventure it was. Felt really good, slightly flat from yesterday. Talked with Sage and Boston for the part of the run. After the turn around I started to talk to Jaiden and I could hear a rattle but ignored it. As it got louder I saw it was a rattlesnake and pretty much hurdled it. Jaiden did the same but turned around to look at it. However, I wasn't going to be that stupid. I got out of there and stopped about 50m away from where everyone else was. Needless to say I was a little paranoid for the rest of the run.

6 miles total. .5 warmup with calisthenics, and a 2 mile warmup, strides, and the workout. Which was, 3 sets of 1x600m and then 1x400m. On the first set I felt pretty ok hit my time for the 600m barely and then missed my time for the 400m by 4 seconds. Next set I hit my 600m time and then hit my 400m time. The last set I hit my 600m time and then got a little bit of a headache, and then was 2 seconds off of my 400 time. Finished it off with 2x150m and then cool down for mileage. Felt ok today, I hit my times so it wasn't a bad day. Figi McAlpine afterwards.

Drove over to the meet after school to cheer on some of the guys and some of the girls. After that I ran 5 miles with Josh and Matt.

I was supposed to run the 800m today, but because of a little rain the meet was cancelled and so I ran 6 miles with sage and had a good talk and an adventure as well. After that we went over to the thatchers to share a special moment with Josh who opened his mission call.
