am -  We went for a nice easy trail run, Mustang Pass.  It was very good, my ankle felt mostly good.  6.9 miles.

pm -  Met with some guys at Sand Hollow and did 40 mins.  Me and jake got 4.8 miles.  Nice day at the lake, it was fun but the waters super low so the cliff jumping was kinda sketchy.

am -  Good cheese morning run.  It was noticeably darker than last time.  30 minutes, 3.8 miles.

pm -  I ran 4 x mile repeats on the region course.  I got 6 flat on the first two then 5:52, 5:54.  It was super hot and that made it pretty hard.  The rest of the team did pretty good in their races! 60 minutes, 8 miles

Race: Las Vegas Invitational (3.2 Miles) 00:17:13, Place overall: 6

am -  Race, Las vegas Invite.

Kind of an off race for me.  When the race started I felt like the pace was super fast, my legs were already so tired.  My physical part was feeling like crap.  I kept weaving around people to get into the front pack and stayed there for about a mile.  I didn't feel good, like at SUU I felt great, like I could squat 400lbs.  At 1.5 miles, Cam came up to me and we ran together for a while.  He made a move at 2 miles that I went with for a bit, I just didn't have it to stay with him.  I was able to pull it together the last half mile and pass a good amount of guy, that was a mental battle I won was to go with a half mile left.  I was also to have a good sprint and I passed two guys in the last 5 feet.   

Thinking back I don't think I was as prepared today as I was for SUU.  Then, I ate 2 PB&H sandwiches before the race and a pear, and today it was a few peaches and some graham crackers.  I also didn't hydrate enough on thursday and friday.  Next time, I need to feed the machine good.  Not to mention, today the heat and humidity felt insanely hardcore.

Our team won the varsity race, jv race, and frosh/soph race.  And we won the overall champions cup so thats supa swag.
