Am -  Ok morning run today.  I felt good, but it was really cold.

Pm -  Such a rad, intense, speed workout today.  Did 10 minutes of warm up, then got into 400's of death.  Started with a rep at goal 800m pace (1:52) as long as I could up to 600m.  Came through at 57 and just dug till I lost the smoothness at like 475m.

Full recovery then three reps at 1600m pace (4:25), two mins jog between.  Times were 66, 65, 66.  Felt pretty relaxed on those, getting a bit tired on the last.  Had a head wind on the back stretch the whole workout.

Four minutes jog then two reps at 800m pace (1:56). Went 58, then I was so tired on the next one I kinda sucked with a 68.

Chilled for five minutes then went for another good rep, got 60.  Took five more minutes rest to get another good push, ran 59.  Had a hardcore headache for about 20 mins after but Alex got me some Ibuprofen and I was able to cool down to 6.8 total.

Overall a nice improvement from the same workout two weeks ago.

Am -  Nice run this morning.  My legs felt much better than I thought they would.  A bit cold though.  4 miles.

Pm -  Easy 4 miler in the afternoon, then five little hill sprints after.  Someone stole my Pine View basketball cutoff while we are running, that is very sad.  

Did a lucious seshun of yoga with Mitch and Andrew after the run.

Am -  Easy 4 miles.  Tired.  Feeling the grind rn man.  Peg 30's may have to be retired this week when my K6's come.  They're feeling dead.

Pm -  Tempo this afternoon.  Did 2 mile warm up.  Then started 15 minutes at 5:20 goal pace.  It really wasn't too bad, I didn't really strain at all.  1st mile felt easy, 2nd mile my legs got a bit tired, 3rd mile was a bit hard but not bad.  Wore some shades today and it really helped to relax and not strain my eyes. 

Two 300's after.  I was pretty tired so only went 41 and 40.  Cooled down to 7 miles, then lifted weights for a few minutes after.

Am -  Easy 4 miles. 

Pm -  Long run this afternoon with Paul and Julien.  Skylar and Jason ran with us for 3 miles then they didn't.  We ran all over a bunch of random places towards the dump, Hell Hole, Coral Canyon, and Highland Park.  It was fairly sucky and windy.  Ended up with a bunch of salt caked on my face.  Hard run and long day but hard things make champions so it's all good.  10.6 miles.

Am -  Quite a beast run this morning.  We saw some deer 1.5 miles in.  I stopped to stretch and was observing one.  It lept over the cement barrier guarding I-15 and it jumped over it and tried to cross.  The freeway is elevated so I didn't see it, but like 10 seconds later I heard a way loud thud and a crunch of metal.  So yeah that deer got wrecked, happy earth day to him.  Finished off running east back to the high school and observed a freakin beautiful sunrise.  3.8 miles overall.

Pm -  Drove to Dixie High after school to watch our milers race and do my run.  It was incredibly windy so they didn't run fast, but they ran alright.  Did 4 miles after that with some 200m strides.  Would have hung around at the meet but the wind just sucked so bad.  I got the 800m and 4x400m tomorrow.  5 miles overall.

Am -  Got to the meet at 8 chilled for a long time and watched our 2 mile crew.  My boy Julien did awesome, 10:11 and he's a freshman.  So proud.  After the 4x100m me, Paul, Skylar, and Alex went warming up.  We just ran around Saint George right in the middle of it.  I got about 4.5 mile then some strides before my race.

Race started out good speed, except we came through at 200 in 28 and it felt way to fast for a 28.  Usually I'm feeling great with 400 to go, ready to beast but man I had nothing today.  I felt pretty flat and just tried to hang on the last lap and qualify, which I did so that's good.  I had a good hard week of training so I ain't worried, it was good to get my first open 800m out of the way.

Jogged around for a while cuz I was anchoring our 4x400m team of me, Paul, Skylar, and Kawika.  It was such a beast race.  Kawika started out good enough we were in like 5th.  Skylar ran and another good leg and bumped us up to 4th.  Paul also came in clutch and got us into 3rd.  Our handoff was clutch and I was in 2nd chasing D-hells with Ike and a cedar dude right behind me.  I was gaining hard and I was thinking, "ooh baby I can win it for us."  Going onto the final straight Ike passed me and we caught d hills and we were all going ham.  Cedar came on me with like 10 meters left.  And bam, they ended up getting 3rd in front of us by .01 so yeah that sucked I wanted a medal.  But we qualified for state and I split a 50, possibly 49 so I'm very happy about that.

8.5 total for the day.
