6am -  3 miles.

5pm -  Really rough, exausting afternoon.  I went over to Snow Canyon to race the 1600m and qualify for state.  that race was not great, just a race.  I did good the first lap but the second was slow and by then I was alone and just didn't have enough drive left.  Ended up with some crap 4:39.  I then decided to do the 800 and I was beat and ran more crap, 2:06.  

After that us boys on the team did our workout of 2400m and 1600m.  I did good on the 2400m and got 7:43, but cam and paul were ahead of me.  On the 1600m I was fed up with the crap I pulled in my race so I pushed this one good mentally and kept with Paul the whole time and pulled away at the end a bit.  I had it at 1.1 miles and 5:35 so that left me with a more positive look on this evening.  Also did 1 300m at 41 seconds.  Got 8 miles total with warmup and cool downs and stuff.

4pm -  There was a JV meet at Canyon View today so us going to BYU did our workout in Cedar.  Our workout was 4 400's all out with full recover.   Warm up 1.5 miles.  We just did it along a road with a slight downhill at the first.  Also we had a strong tail/cross wind so times were very fast.  I got 52, 57(we moved it back on this one), 53, 53.  Good fast workout.  I felt pretty good during the workout but I was so sore after.

3pm -  Today our team did our final Kosmin test.  I was pretty tired and my legs were dead but it was still a good push.  I got 1519 meters.  The wind was raging also.  I really hope the wind lets up at BYU.  1.5 warm and 1.5 cool.

6:30am -  2 miles.

6pm -  traveled up to northern utah today for BYU on Saturday.  Ran from Payson High School into Payson.  Just did 3 miles with Andrew and Skylar.  Everyone else left us and found a b-ball court and played dunk ball.  those guys were reals dudes.  ppt hurting on my left tibia so I didn't do striders.

7:30pm -  Chilled at the track meet all day just watching the sprint prelims.   and 3200 with a battle between conner and connor.   We went out and ran when we got back to our hotel.  We ran back to the b-ball court and played some hardcore dunkball.  On the way back I was feeling so good.  I'm ready to go hardcore in the 800m.  I'm really feeling like a 1:58.

12:30pm -  Pretty fun day and a good race.  I was very confident heading into this and I was really hoping to go under 2 minutes.  at about 11 all us 800 guys and coach went on a 2 mile run.  Then as i waited for my section to be called to the bullpen I ran on the grass about a mile.  

On the track I was 1st seed.  they fired the gun and then again cuz flippin Abel false started.  I felt bad for the guy.  He was DQ'd then the race started for reals.  I got out in a good position with a group of about 5.  1 kid from Alta was up front a bit.  I stuck behind these guys for the first lap which was 60 seconds.  I made my move here and passed the whole group.  The Alta kid was about 5-10 meters up with 300m to go.  I worked some more on catching him and was right behind with 200 to go.  I surged 1 more time at 100 to go and I went for the pass but he heard me and kicked it in.  right at the end another kid from alta passed me and I got 3rd in my heat.  I finished in 2:00.14.  At first I was pretty dissapointed cause I really wanted to run sub 2, but later I realized that I actually ran a decent race and qualified for state so I was happy.  

I was going to run the 800 on our medly team also but Abel did since he got DQ'd from the open 800m.  Me, Matt and Jason ran over to the Smith field house and ran a mile in there.  So that was 2 miles.  5.5 miles for the day.
