good run to start off the week, it was a tiny bit rainy but it was really fun, we just went on this riviera over by alpine highway, than we went back to the park and did some more.

two mile tempo today, we went on the Murdock canal trail for a little down by lone peak, I did good I think, got hit like 5:15 for them which is pretty sick, I hope our speed workouts will be good this year

first day of cross country camp today, we did a run up to Stewart falls today, than we stood on top of it and after we went to aspen grove, than back down to sundance on the roads.

In the morning we did the ridge trail up by timpanookie which is where we are staying, I really like that trail because it has a decent amount of hills and still is really smooth downhill. On the way back we were flying on the trails going like 5:35 pace at one point

In the afternoon we went to these falls that we went up and down that had a pretty good rock outcropping which Craik rated his highest which is a B+

good run today up on timpanookie road, we just followed it till we hit like 4.1 than we turned back, there were some pritty cool outlooks at where we turned around. Ryan ran with us today, he did good and he was pushing the pace on the downhill till we were hitting like 5:30. Overall it was a great run

Today was a pretty good race, we got there at like 6:30 and met up with the team and started with our warm up, a pritty good warm up a few times around the park. Than we did some strides and saw  Patrick Parker. Than we started. I just wanted to stay with the front group which was Galen, Patrick, Jamison, Zack, so i did for like the first mile and a half. Than we started going downhill and I kinda backed off till we hit mile two, than I speed it up because I knew that there wasn't any more uphill. The last mile we were going pretty fast like sub 5 pace which was fun, I finished with a good kick almost catching zack and finishing with 17 min flat.
