Justin Hartshorn's running blog

Today was a good run down to discovery park, we were going fast the whole time. A average of like sub 6 min pace. Than on the way up we were going a little easyer, we kinda sprinted up this hill. Which kinda made my legs feel a little weird for the rest of the run. But still fun overall, average 6:10.

Ran in the morning today, we went around alpine. I thought it was a pretty good time, I kinda like running in the mornings. Even tho its cold its still good, because you dont have to go to practice after school. 

Today was our first workout of the year, which was 4 two minute tempos on the canal. I felt good for them, and am pretty exited for workouts this season. After we went to the pole, and put a tree in it.

Today we ran down to american fork, than did a few laps on their track. After that we went back and saw them running and ran with them for like a mile. Than went back to the school and did some strides. My calves were really sore.

Today was the distance challenge, we met at the school at 3:30 and went up to the race. We got there and sat around for a little, than warmed up. Than we got put into our heats, I went into heat 2 because I thought it would be good for me. I kinda got stuck in the back around the first corner. Than passed a lot of people and got set up. And stayed about 3-5th place the whole race but the last 300 meters I got passed by Joe  Simmons and grant gardner. And my legs were dead, I usually have a pretty good kick. But my calfs were burning and I couldnt get up to my normal speed. And Joe put like 2 seconds on me. But overall im still really happy with my race, because I PRed by 4 seconds. And it was a really fun time.

Today we went up to by the start of Hogs but than it got to snowy so we went over to lambert and just did 4 mile loop. Overall it was a good time.
