Justin Hartshorn's running blog

Today was a wonderous day, we went up on bonniville in the snow. It was pretty slippery and some spots were muddy. It was tough because we were going decently fast for the slippery snow, I went like 6:38 pace for some of it. Than we just went back to the school but we decided that we were going to do a 400m speedwalking time trial so we did. I won with a 1:37 which we had Will start us and check if we were cheating or not, it was pretty tough because there was some snow still on the track still. After some strides

8 miles this morning at 5:45, it kinda sucked because it was so cold. But I did get some iceicles on my eyelashis. We met at legicy today and just ran up by slideing rock.

Today was a good 2 games of tag than after we just did golf course, and we did a good workout of streangth training. overall a good day.

Today we went up in Alpine and we did a loop, than we came down and went on the road oppisite from alpine highway.

Today we ran at 5:45 at the shchool. Coach wanted us to just go on the canal so we did. It was pretty fun we were going a decent pace the whole time. The trail was nice because it was just like a inch of fresh powder.

Today was a good time, I got picked up by galen at like 7:30 than we went down to BYU and we saw craik and his family when we were on the way down there. We went and put our stuff up in the bleechers than went and got ready for the mile. We didnt have really a big warm up, but it was fine. Me and craik got put into the 8th heat it was the 3rd fastest heat of the day. And I was seeded second in the heat, which I thought was reasonable. I watched heat 7 and I saw that Brennan Benson got 4:43 so I wanted to beat that because my goal was to be the first sophemore. I got on the line and the gun went off I kinda just hung around the front for the first 4 laps, Than on the last lap I knew that I would just have to kick hard and be fine. So I had a good kick and passed Austin Hinkley and Ethan feild. And finished in first, it was fun, than we watched Galen and Zach run their mile. They did good, and Patrick had a really good kick. It turned out that Craik got disqualified, like how I did last year. After we cooled down for a little and had a race around the pato pond.
