Pm -  after stake conference, me and my dad and Sally headed up towards the red rock rock foothills of pine valley and hike up one.  We didn't get as high as I wanted but they're huge.  We hiked 8 miles, great time

Am -  Drove over to Hurricane Rim Trail and ran it with my team.  I was a bit dissapointed cause we were gonna do Jem Trail, but Hurricane rim is also way dope.  Weather was a bit windy but mostly it was a really nice run.  A few guys were flying up the hills wow, I was beat by the end.  It was such a fine way to start Alex Day.

Pm -  30/30 workout today.  Weather was cloudy and felt really cold.  Did 10 minutes of warm up then began the deed.  Last week, I was getting around 160-165 meters per rep, this time more around 165-170.  My fitness seems to be getting better, it wasn't too hard of a run.  I really felt smooth and fast and I focused on my knee drive which helped it go by quick.  Finished with 30 reps and cooled down 10 minutes, total of 7.3 miles.  

Also got in the weight room and lifted.  Did light weight on the squats, slowly building up more strength in my piriformis.

Pm -  Did some warm up yoga then 4 miles into Green Springs.  Really good run, played the take off your shirt game.  We haven't won in a while cuz Corbin will never take his shirt off.  When we got back, there was a 2016 Corvette Stingray in the parking lot and me alex and Jake checked it out and admired it for a bit.   It was rad as it gets.

Pm -  Dope shorts day!  I wore my jubilee shorts.  

Warmed up 15 minutes then tempo on the track.  Our workouts still aren't much right now so it was 15 minutes, 6:04 down to 5:40 pace.  It was nice and relaxing, pretty fun running.  Except for my whole left leg, especially my hamstring was on fire.  Cooled down 15 minutes. And on our cool down loop near Harts, this idiot nearly runs our freshmen in the front over.  We all began yelling at him then coach holt led a chase right to his car.  After an exchange of words and fingers, all was good.

Lifted weights it was alright

Am -  Awesome run up Mill Creek Wash with Alex this morning!  It goes right past my house, but we drove up as far as we could and dropped in there.  It's got a lot of big rocks like from 1 foot to 5 feet so it's really technical and its just super rad running.  We got up pretty far up; into the start of the canyon in the red rocks.  Super cool up there the sandstone looks amazing in some places.  Coming back was a bit quicker and legit.  Got a little over 8 miles up and back.
