Justin Hartshorn's running blog

good workout today, was a 1200, 800, 600, 400. It was pretty hot but I felt really good today again. My times were 3:34, 2:25, 1:44, 64. Also the sophomore football game was going on while we were doing to. And they were all watching us run and the cheerleaders were cheering for us. It was funny.

Today we did good old mountain run, it was a good time.

today we did black trail, Galen Jamison and Seth did a tempo so me Craik and will  just did a regular run. The last mile on alpine highway. Was fast we were going like 5:20 pace.

Today was a good day of 10x400 on the track at like pritty much mile pace. Me times were 67, 66, 66, 67, 66, 66, 66, 65, 65, 63. I felt decent, not amazing but not terrible. Afterwards just a cool down on golf course.

7 good old miles up on the canal today, it was a good time overall. Not super hot, Crank ran though a puddle for 2 dollars.

Today was a good 6 miles down to AF and back, than we went and did 4x200. Overall it was a good time.

Today we did just a easy run down to art die and back. Galen brought his gopro, so we got some sick pictures.  Also Jones talked to some people down there doing some swat training.

Region today, I put it was 3.05 because all Lehi's team put that it was a 5k. But all our team said that it was a 3 mile. I thought I did well, I started off the race by just trying to stay with Seth. But he felt amazing so after the 1st mile I just stuck with Jamison. Till the last mile where Zack started going faster so I went with him. Than on the last 100 he passed me and we kicked it in and got closer to Galen. We ended up winning 6 points ahead of AF. Overall we had a spread of 9.9 sec so that's awesome.

10 miles today, up on middle spring than down on timberline loop. After will bought me some doughnuts 

solid run up in alpine today. Just did alpine loop, averaged a good pace.

Workout today, was 400, 600, 800, 600, 400, 400. I wasn't feeling good today so everyone else did like 2 more 400s. But we did get some good motivation from the cheerleaders and the commentator.

Today was a radventure run, we went on this trail behind this crazy horse. And Craik and Galen went though it. So we had to go around, Seth found deer antlers tho so I thought that was cooler than going though the horse pen. Than we went into this one backyard that had a slack line across a pond. And it had this awesome huge waterfall in it. After the run we did some barefoot on the football feild.

Good run today. Went up on the trails by suncrest. After that we went down on the road, than back to the park on timberline loop

Workout on the track today, I like practice in the morning its a good time. But we did 10x400s today with 90s in between each. My times were 67, 67, 66, 66, 67, 66, 66, 65, 64, 63, 62. The team looked  good today, after we just did golf course.

Came down to St. George yesterday. So I'm running here, I went on the road around the golf course I'm staying on. Than I went on this trail by the Santa Clara river, the trail was kinda cool. But it kinda got boring after a while. I went a little to fast one mile 5:57. But the rest of the run I was going like 6:40.

Today is my last day in st George, I ran up to this awesome lookout it wasn't very high up but it still looked cool. Than I went back and did some laps on the golf course. Than after the laps I did some strides on the golf course. It was pritty awesome.

Short run today because state is tomorrow, didn't feel amazing today so I'm hopeing that I feel good tomorrow.

Today was state, we started out by going and looking at the changes they made. I like the new course. But we just sat around for a little while. Than watched the girls race, than we watched the 3a race. After that we went and Did a warmup while watching the 4a race. I wasnt feeling amazing on the warmup. But I usually don't, Than we went to the starting line and got ready. I was feeling good once we were on the starting line. The race started and I got out to a pritty good start. I kinda just wanted to not get to far behind Seth and Galen. But they went out really fast. Seth was in 4th place up the 2nd hill. Which was pritty cool because he Jamison and Galen were on the front page of the newspaper. After the first mile my stomach started to hurt, and going around the lake I felt myself slow down but I kinda speed back up again after that. Throught the whole race I was just trying to stay with thomas heaps. Which I thought was a good person to stay with because I was right next to him at region. The last mile my stomach was hurting really bad. But I pushed through it. And I passed Galen and Dallin Leatham, and got right behind seth. So I got 17th overall and 2nd Sophmore behind Ryan. 

6 miles down to AF and back. Craik did a 400 with Jones witch was kinda interesting.

Today we did the wall. I didnt really feel like trying but I ended up trying but not my hardest. I got like 4:56 or something so not amazing but than me and craik and josh explored a tube. and slid down it, it was pritty awesome.

Today Craik, Josh, Alex my brother, me and my brothers friend. Went and hiked this mountain right behind craiks house. It was a pritty cool hike, we started hiking up a river. Than we ran into like 5 Waterfalls that were really cool. Than we just went bushwacking the rest of the way up. And I came like 1 ft away from a raccoon witch was pritty scary. We also brought with us a flag with a smily face on it. and we wrote our names on it and named the mountain Palmer Ridge mountain. Its like at 9124 ft elevation so we gained like 4100 ft elevation. It was sick.

Good run on bonniville on the way back we were going 5:45 pace for a bit. But a. Good run overall.

Good hill workout today. Did 6x600m reapeats my times were 1:57, 1:57, 1:58, 1:59, 1:57, 1:54. Felt decent, not amazing but not terrible. I thought that I did pritty good tho.

Good game of tag today, I didnt feel very good on the last game so I sat out and just skipped rocks. But I ended up doing the cooldown still and I made it through it.

Good old tempo on the canal today. We havent done tempos in a while so it felt interesting. But overall it was really a good time we did 5min fast 5min slow, 4min fast than 4slow, than 3,2,1 same way. Went pritty fast on the 1 but we always do that.
