Am -  Easy run in the morning.  

Pm -  lightning was in the premises in the afternoon so we did some warm up then had to do our workout inside.  It was some 150 meter repeats.  I didn't go as hard as last Monday as to save my legs a bit.  But I focus on good form and quick turnover.  Cooled down a bit for 5 miles.

Am -  Nice relaxing run this morning, it felt great.  The weather this week has felt a lot like Southern California weather to be honest.  2.5 miles.

Pm -  Did a chill run into Washington up towards Coach Holt's house.  Went through the Sqaurdesac which was epic as always.  Good loop of 6 miles.  I need to ice a few spots, but with two more nights of good sleep I should be feeling awesome.  Rylee reminded me it was my last real practice at PVHS so I really just soaked it in.  Wow its just wild.

AM  -  Last mile of my high school career, it was a fun one.  I got a solid amount of warm up.  Starting the race the weather was perfect.  I had a good first lap, then 2nd lap I fell off the lead.  3rd lap was pretty weak, I fell back to 5th.  With about 450m to go I heard my dad yell, "you can still do it!"  I contemplated that for a second and just though like "wow, senior year, this is it, I gotta go!"  So I started chugging hard, I gained like 30 meters back and passed the leaders with 200m to go.  I was giving it all I had I thought I was gonna win.  Then jaiden passed me with about 50m to go and I had nothing left to fight back with, I'd been kicking for 400m now.  Yolo whatever it's a bummer but I still PR'd in my last mile.  Honestly not a great race overall even though I finished good and pr'd.  

Later did the medley and split 2:02 it was rough I was exausted.

Pm -  Wow I'm feeling so sentimental writing this race entry.  I warmed up a good 3 miles for the ocho.  I didn't feel amazing, but pretty good.  I got a good start in the race, pretty much right into second behind Richfield guy.  I chilled right on him on the first lap then on the home straight where we had some unfortunate headwind.  Took the lead with 400m to go like I like to, I was gunning for the win.  Then with 250 to go Ike the freaking beast passed me and also Richfield guy.  I dug some more and stayed with them.  Stinking Ike just pulled away from us for the win.  I didn't have the zip in my step to close like I wanted, but I'm glad I stuck in and battled Richfield guy to get that second place.  Finished in 1:57, not a PR so overall I was fairly bummed.  

4x 400m later, we kinda sucked, whatever.  At least we didn't get our baton smacked away like Davis. 

I always wanted to win a track state championship and get a 1:54 to beat our school record.  At least I still got my Cross Country Title, and really, theres so much more important things in life than running races.  I loved high school track and XC so much, so many awesome memories.  Don't know for sure yet where I'm going to attend college yet, most likely USU or SUU since I have full rides to both.  I'd love to continue running in college, but we'll see where I'm at after 2 years in El Salvador.  Hopefully I'll still have the desire to run competitively.  I'll run occasionally and blog it till I leave July 12th.  Word out.
