The King of Controversy

AM - 2.75 miles. 20 min easy. Cut down the length of our morning runs this week as we start our taper. Championship Season!

PM - 6 miles. 800m Kosmin Test and 300, 200, 100 finishes (all with spikes). Distance - 808. Predicted 800 time - 2:01. This was really tough. I got around about 420 meters the first 60 seconds. I was really tired the 2nd 60 seconds like I always have but I some how pulled something okay out of my butt and hit over 800 meters for the first time. I felt really smooth and strong on all the finish practice. 

AM - 2.75 miles. 20 min easy. Good run.

PM - 5 miles. 40 min with 4x60 sec fartleks. Coach had us go up to Canyon View to the JV meet and get our workout in up here to get some higher elevation training. Good workout. The fartleks were pretty strong but I was more focusing on keeping good form. Coach also had me do a 200 in the JV meet but I was pretty exhausted and ran like a 26 or 27. 

AM - 2.5 miles. 20 min easy. I showed up a little later than I normally do but the team left 1 minute early so I ran by myself for a little bit.

PM - 5.5 miles. 30 min easy with striders and a little extra running with the little kids at the little kid meet. Felt pretty good. Not much else to say. 

Controversy - BYU or Herriman? Well this controversy has already floated around the blog for the past week or so as some people are mad at their Coaches for not taking them to BYU. So if you have any more input on the subject, comment. I personally am only bummed about not going to BYU because it means our trip up north is only 1 night instead of 2.

AM  - 2.75 miles. 20 min easy. Felt really fresh this morning. 

PM - 6.5 miles. 45 min with 4x30 sec fartleks. Another swag pre-race run.

Controversy - Which definition of a vampire is actually right? Twilight? Vampire Diaries? Other? 

AM - 2.75 miles. 20 min easy. Felt good.

PM - 6 miles. Herriman Invite 1600 and 800. 4:58 and 2:19. Absolutely terrible meet for me today. 1600 started out good and pretty much right where I needed to be to State Qualify for the first two laps - 2:15. Everything fell apart again like last week. I just gave up. That's the simplest way to put it. 800 was super sad too and was slower than the first 2 laps of my 1600. I'm in a slump mentally right now. My workouts have been solid but these last two weeks of racing have been the worst of my life. I'll probably just be running JV next week at Region so next week will pretty much be my last week of my high school running career.

AM - 6.5 miles. 50 min easy. Fun run in Sandy this morning before we headed home. I felt really good. No soreness or nothing. I guess that's cause I didn't run very hard yesterday.
