PM - 4 miles with 4x200's. We ran the Dog Pound run today with a hard pace all the way from the top of telegraph down to the Dog Pound. I was feeling really good and actually led the boys pretty much the whole time and even at the end which is where I usually fall off. I wasn't hardly ever out of breath either which is great for me even though our hard push was down hill. My200's weren't bad either but I still got burned by all those people who can sprint like crazy.

PM - 4 mile run to Starbucks and back. It was a great easy run with my shirt off where me and Jason pushed the pace to ditch the rest of the guys who were doing some dumb synchronized running and kept saying, "Left, left, left..." and so on. I was really happy that we got done so early because it was nice to get the weekend started early.

PM - Today was an 8 mile distance run. I don't know what was wrong today but I had this horrible side ache and the bottom of my foot hurt. I was running with all the guys clear to Hells Hole but dropped off after that.

PM - Workout today. I did 2x(1200, 1000, 800, 600) and Harts warm and cool. About 7.5 miles total. My foot was still bothering me and I don't know why I still have a side ache in the same spot. My first set was great and was able to stick with the rest of the lower level 2 boys but soon dropped. I ran most of my remaining set with the Varsity boys because I had made a pit stop at the bathroom and was able to stick right behind Kyler most of the way.

PM - 4 mile easy run. My foot still was bothering me and I still had the side ache but couldn't feel it all that much because of the slow pace. I led the boys out but I was the only lower level 2 boy to turn around at Starbucks. I met Jake along the way back and since he wasn't feeling good ran with me but he soon dropped off as well.

AM - Same old 3 mile Arctic Circle run. My foot didn't hurt so bad this morning and I had a good run. It wasn't too cold either.

PM - 7.5 miles. Today we had our 3rd Time Trial. We started with our normal warm up (Harts). I was super happy with my race today. I got a time of 12:32 which is a 23 seconds better than my last time. I started out as usual, toward the back right with Andrew and Dallin. After getting up by the tennis courts, I finally decided to try to catch up with Josh and Hunter. I was able to catch up with them by the baseball field and was able to stick with them until the 800 when I pushed it and left them in the dust. I tried to catch Danny on that last lap but sadly he went faster too. Still a great race though. We didn't have a normal cool down though. Instead, we had a short run (3 miles) and then 4x200's. It wasn't too hard but I wasn't feeling the greatest so towards the end of the 3 miles and throughout the 200's and didn't run as good as should have.

PM - 5 miles with striders. Today we ran down 2450 and were going to go to the river trail but the street was really busy so we went up the industrial road. We ran past the high school and went partway on the Arctic Circle run and came back. I wasn't feeling the greatest once we started coming up industrial and I fell behind. I caught back up just past the high school and finished off my run strong. I really liked striders and realized they were my favorite cool down.

8 miles. My first Saturday run in about a month. It was a little cold and my foot was bothering me a lot today probably because I was lazy yesterday and didn't stretch very well. I ran down to the river trail today to make up for not doing it yesterday and because we haven't run it since the beginning of the season. It was a pretty uneventful run until about halfway through when I saw Megan, Aubrey, and Erin out on their run. Then it was another boring and cold 4 miles. A long run but not too difficult.

PM - 7 miles. We did 5x1000 today with Harts warm and cool. I was feeling good but ran poorly. Not the greatest workout for me.

AM - 3 miles. Same old.

PM - 5 mile run and then striders. I felt great and led the pack for a lot of the run. Striders, my favorite cool down, were a blast. My foot is feeling way better but still hurt towards the end of the run.

AM - 3 miles. Arctic Circle. Super Cold. Not much fun.

PM - 5 miles easy and then 4x200. Coach was really happy with how I almost always lead out the pack and I did just that for the first half of the run but started feeling like crap on the second half. I fell off extremely at the end and was kind of embarrassed after getting congratulated for sticking with the big pack.

PM - 6 mile killer Sunrise Hill workout. I led the pack again with Jason (again) over to the hill. We had a pretty small group even with the Varsity being gone. I guess some people thought they could ditch without Coach knowing but they thought wrong (Josh, Jake T, other Jason). Okay, I'm sure they had a good excuse. Anyways, the workout was actually really good today. Yes it was hard but I had a lot of fun with it (sounds weird, I know). I did 5 hills and on the first one my lungs were on fire and my legs were burning and I thought "Oh great, another crappy workout". But it only got better from there, I didn't get much faster but felt better as it went on and I felt like I was running pretty consistently. On the run back, I led the pack again and surprisingly didn't feel very tired. Way better than last time we did this workout.

PM - 5 miles. Nice easy run to Target and back. We left really early but overall still had lame attendance (that's including those we left behind). I'm sure they have a good reason but still. Anyways I got left behind too but once I caught up, I led the group again. It was actually a really fun run even with our really small numbers.

5 miles. I ran to Target again (yes the same way 3 days in a row). I went about 5 pm and even though the weather was really nice, I wore a jacket. Nice slow pace. Nice short run.

PM - 7 miles. Roller coasters. I led the pack over there and was feeling really good. I started running the roller coasters and my legs started burning and I wanted to quit. But I just kept taking it step by step and telling myself to push myself up and down each hill and that it was almost over. I was able to stay up front throughout the whole thing and I am so happy. It is a huge improvement from the last time I ran roller coasters where I started walking on some of those hills. I felt great on the way back too so overall great run.

PM - 4x1000 with Harts warm and cool. It was around 6.5 miles I think. Coach had the lower level 2 boys hang back today with the girls so Rachel and Mia (well just all of those top girls) would have somebody to kinda pace them. My first one was really strong and me Andrew led the pack along with Rachel and we came in about 3:15. My next times were about the same with my last one being 3:17. So it was a pretty consistent workout for me. I really loved leading the pack too because  it really gave me a reason to keep pushing and learn how to set the pace a little bit.

5 miles and then striders at the end. I ran at about noon with my brother and we took my sister out a little ways with us. My mom was taking my younger siblings to the park so we decided to run from there. It was at Cox park in Dixie boundaries kinda by the post office. At first it was a really slow pace because we had to stay with our sister but it was really fun to give my sister some tips on her form and kinda helped me think about my form too. Pretty much an uneventful run otherwise though. The grass that we did striders on was crappy and mostly dead but whatever. At least I got my run in and got my brother to run with me.

5 miles. I ran over foremaster today before going to a turkey bowl. I started out with my mom but since her pace was a little slow and I didn't have a lot of time before the turkey bowl, I left her. It wasn't a difficult run and I was feeling good until the last part of my run. I don't know what it was. My legs were feeling good but I just had no desire to run which hasn't happened to me for a long time. It was a nice quiet run which was nice but I still wish I could have gotten my brother to come.

PM - 5 miles. Today we did a timed mile with the DI warm and cool. I got 5:33 but I just felt really choppy today. I never have run this fast on mile (even though I haven't really been timed that much) and I was happy with the time. I was just really mad about how sloppy my form was and mad at my self for not running on Friday and Saturday because I was felt really rusty today on the run. Evidence that not only missing Saturday runs but any runs can really affect your running even if it is only one run.

PM - 4 miles with striders. I led the pack for the first little bit but still was feeling rusty so decided to drop back a bit. I didn't fall off completely like I've done so many times when I'm hurting but I still fell off a little (like barely any, though). Striders were awesome as always since it is my favorite cool down. I almost beat Paul on that last strider but got cut off. (Ha, Ha. Just kidding, I probably never would be able to beat Paul)

PM - ICE CREAM RUN!!! 4 miles and 4x200. I was feeling rusty again at first but after eating my cone, I felt so great. My stomach didn't hurt and my legs were just feeling awesome. We almost killed Andrew on the run too! The 200's felt great even though I wasn't killer fast but I just felt great.

3 miles.We drove down to California for the Foot Locker Race. We got there after dark and went for little run from the hotel. There were a lot of poles, signs, and fire hydrants in the way. It was pretty fun and we just relaxed in our rooms until bed.

3 miles...I think. Maybe 4 but I'm not sure. We picked up our race packets and stuff. The people sort of lost my registration and tried to rip me off and make me pay the money again. They found my registration got me my bib but I found out later I got signed up for the wrong race. We then ran part of the course and did like 4 striders with our shoes on. It had been raining all day and I think night so the course was muddy and our shoes got caked with mud and eventually grass when we did striders. Kinda bumbed about it raining because we didn't go to the beach. Observatory was okay though.
