Progression run today. We did 8 miles on the track and progressivly went faster. Splits were 7:30, 7:00, 6:30, 6:00, 5:40, 5:30, 5:20, 5:23. The last few miles were pretty tough. After we did a few laps barefoot, than I went 1.5 miles with my brother alex.

Just a good distance run today, we went 3 miles at lunch and I cut my hand on a fence. Than it got a little bloody. After I washed it off we went up to lambert and did 5 more on some of the trails up there. And we explored this washed out canyon thing with cliffs on both ends. 

Today was the time trial 400, we went on a warmup and met at the track than waited for a little for the sprinters to finish their 100s. After that we went and did a warm up 400m which we crossed at like a 68, after that we got split up into heats. pretty much the fast heat was varsity. And I got put in the 6th lane which kinda sucks because I didnt have anyone to chase after. But I got out pretty fast than heavy floated till 150m to go and kicked it in. Craik was coming up on the left of me and he almost tripped but he cought himself and we sprinted it in. I got 55 which is a new pr so im happy. After we did a 800 time was 2:17

Good 9 miles on the canal today at 6 in the morning. It felt pretty good, later I went up to sliding rock for a little, and ran down the road up to it.

Ran the couch run today, this time the girls came. It was still really cool and fun.

Today we went and did timberline loop than over up to the church at the top of alpine, than this cop asked us if we were suppost to be out of school. than up in lambert and down 5mile loop

Good workout today which was 800, 600, 400, 800, 600, 400. I was feeling pretty tired today but I still hit good times.

alpine today, overall it was a good run. And I felt pretty good, except my bum hurt.

Workout today, 6x800s I kept it anywhere from 2:20-2:24. Overall it was a good time.

alpine run today, just me Craik and Josh today. Alpine is one of my favorite runs. Going decently fast on the way back.

we did hogs hollow today for the first time this year, I forgot how much fun hogs was. We kept a decent pace the whole time up and than when we were going down there was lots of snow that was hard ice on the top and you would break through it. Than on the way back, the 2nd to last mile we were going 5:35 pace than the last one me Craik and Jamison did a good sub 5 mile we were around 4:55

Workout today, it was 1200, 800, 800, 400, 400, 400. I felt good for pretty much most of it, my last 4 my legs just couldnt move any faster. But it was still a good time. My splits were 3:37, 2:21, 2:22, 66, 65, 65.

Good run up on bonneville and after we did some strides, I felt good pretty much the whole time.

Lone Peak vs Lehi dual meet today, coach wanted us to do 2 events. One of them not as hard and than the other one race it. So I choose to do the mile not as hard and than the 800 full out. We talked to the lehi guys for a little bit and than I went and had a nap. After my nap we did a warm up for the mile, which we just went to the pole and back. I wasnt feeling very good but I still felt fine. Than we got on the line and did a good 4:40 mile. And in the middle I did a swim move in bettween two lehi guys. Than I just stuck behind jamison and finished in second. After we did two miles to keep our legs warm, and we did the 800. I was a little nervous but not to bad just because it was a dual meet. We got on the line, and started. I got of to a pretty bad start, but than I followed collin from lehi up to the front. And the rest of the race I was kinda just trying to stay right behind him. And I finished in 3rd behind jamison and collin. Both my laps were 60s, so I finished at 2:00 flat. So super close to breaking 2 but im still happy about it because its a 5 sec pr.

good mileage up in alpine, we went on mountain run than down to the middle of alpine. After that just back to hidden oaks to ice bath.

Did a tempo on the canal today, we did 4, 2 min at a pretty fast pace. I dont really like running on the canal

Today was the lone peak pi mile, me and craik went so we could get some extra credit in our math class. Also it counted for attendence school credit. And the first three finishers for both boys and girls got pie. Overall it was a good time, we pretty much held a steady pace for the whole time. And at like mile 2 me and craik started getting a little gap on caleb and will. And like 400m to go we started going a little faster. We also decided that we would tie for the win, just for a good time. So me and craik tied and caleb got 3rd. After the race we did 5 miles down to AF and back. My legs were pretty sore from yesterday.

Good workout today, we did 11x400m reapeats I felt pretty decent and hit 65-68 the whole time which I am happy about.

Today we did mountain run than down into alpine, it was a good time.

Didn't race today, my stomach was hurting really bad throught the whole day. I hope it will be feeling better by friday.

Got new shoes yesterday also, those are pretty dope. Today we just went down to AF and back. Once we got down there, there was a track meet going on. So we just had a good time watching the mile. The kid that won looked like Joe Simmons. They also painted the poles more yellow on the trail. My stomach hurt a little today but it felt lots better than yesterday.

 Today was the mountain valley invite. I didn't really feel good when we got there  but I still raced.I did the mile first, didn't feel good at all. It took it out too fast because Hayden Penrod lead the first lap out at 62, and I hit 65.  Then it just went downhill from there, and I finished in 4:38.  I'm guessing it's probably just because I've been sick and  The bad weather didn't help either.  Then we sat around on for a little,  and Seth let me sleep in his hammock.  After I took a nap in the hammock I felt lots better  and me and Josh went on a warm-up so we could do the sprint medley.  In the sprint medley we got out to a really bad start and went straight to last on the first two legs then it was my turn for the 400, which I passed three people, and split 54. After that it was Josh's turn in for the passed two people and we ended up getting 3rd  which was pretty sick. Than we watched Zack qualify for state in the two mile so shoutout to him.

Hi, today I did 10 miles up to the top of rodeo and down middle spring. Alex started the run with me than turned back at 1.5. The beginning of the run I was going pretty slow and it was kinda hard. But than I warmed up and I ended up going decently fast for most the run. On mountain run I was going 6:20 pace than my last mile I did a 5:40. Today im feeling better than yesterday. 

Good run today, we went up to bonniville and did that on the way there, than on the way back we did backwoods bonniville it was a good time and we havent done that run so it was nice to do that again.

Really good workout today, we did 12x400s with 90 sec rest. Also we were suppost to do 5 at a good 67 than the next 7 just do faster I hit 67, 67, 66, 67, 67, 64, 65, 65, 65, 64, 66, 62. It was just the varsity guys today, exept for Josh. All the rest of the team had to go to the Lehi, Lone Peak, AF, tri meet. The whole  team looked really good and im getting exited for the weeks to come.

Today was a good game of modesty. In the middle trevor broke his ankle, which I felt really bad about. After we did like 3 miles to finish up mileage.

Good easy workout today, we just did 600, 400, 200, 600, 400, 200. I split 1:40, 65, 29, 1:41, 62, 28. I felt good, and galen felt better also which is good.
