Am -  walk up to the guys in the morning and what do you know, there's Connor Arnell, what a surprise.  Good to have him with us for the classics Starbucks morning run. Nice 4 miles.

Pm -  Introduced some speed today.  Did 10 minutes of warm up then got going.  Started off with a rep at 800m goal pace (1:52) up to 600m.  I got 400m in 57 so I stopped there.  Unfortunately I felt pretty flat today.  Then 3 400's at mile pace (1:06.25), I got 65, 66.1, 67.2.  3 minutes rest then 2 400's at 800m pace (1:56), I got 62 and 65.  Just really feeling tired and not fast.  Recover another 3 minutes and just did what I could on the last 2 which were supposed to be goal 800m pace.  I went 65, then was able to relax and run a 62 which was good for the moment.  My body's not used to speed it's been 10 months.  Cooled to 6 miles.

Gonna go get me some shades.  The light has been killing me lately, I can barely open my eyes after workouts cuz their so sensitive.

Am -  Easy 4 to Starbucks.  Right soleus tight and bugging me.

Pm -  Sunrise hills, always a solid run!  8x20secs hard, with 10 seconds rest, break going back down between rep 4&5.  Legs felt way tired and flat running over to the hill, but I felt OK doing the reps.  Led everybody after Paul kinda disappeared.  Went back to high school to run the kid track meet.  6 miles total.

Am -  3.8 miles easy.  Kinda mad at Alex cause he never care about going to sleep and we share a room so I'm way tired.  Kinda feel sorry for him though, he's not in our 4x800 on Friday and I think he should be.

Pm -  Started off with yoga which is something.  After that ran 3.9 easy then 4x 200m accels.  Feeling tired and worn out, need some good sleep tonight.  4.9 total.

Am -  Easy 3.7 in the morning.  But no, they are never easy.

Pm -  Had a busy day today.  Therapy sesh at 11, bowling tourney at 1, Sterling Scholar interview at 3.  Got to the meet at DH at like 4.  Was supposed to do the 4x1600m at 4:45 ended being more like 5.  It was our 4x800 team, just did a chill mile each, I ran 5:20.  Ready for a beast 800m tomorrow, first of the season.

Gonna take tomorrow morning off, right calf has been so tight, starting to really bug.  Done everything, it just needs some rest.

No run this morning, my body needed the rest it felt waaaay good.  

Pm -  Headed over to DH around 5, warmed up at 5:30.  Like the 4x1600m yesterday, the only team in the 4x800m was us, and our girls.  The goal was to take down our insane (sarcastic tone) school record of 8:20 from I think 1999.  Some how all the great runners who went through Pine View the last 7 or so years could never beat it.  Warmed up 2 miles, got spikes on, did a few strides, then I ran the last leg.  Felt tired and flat, but I ended up splitting about a high 1:56.  HUGE positive if I can run that and not have it feel fast.  We ended up with a 8:13, a school record.  Honestly I believe our guys in 2 years can beat they, but ya never know.  Cooled down to 7 miles.

Am -  Got up at 9am and ran.  Me, Alex, and padre drove up the road to mill creek trail head.  We ran 5 miles up into Washington Hallow.  It was super sick, going up into that wash, into the sandstone mountains below Pine Valley.  They're so much bigger than they look from my house.
