One Mile at a Time

Hard to believe summer is over. It was fun with some good running and I enjoyed getting to run with some of you fellow FRB people. I put down 545 miles this summer and am excited to see how I do this season. Good luck to all of you in your seasons!

Today I ran 5 miles alone then 1 mile with the team for their warmup but half of that was barefoot. I had to get a run in before physical therapy at 3:30. I need to drink more during the day because I could tell I hadn't been drinking on my run.

AM- First morning run of the school year. Had to start off with 1100.

Another rough run. 6:52 average for 7 miles with some barefoot strides after. Didn't drink enough again.

AM- 2.4 miles. We did the short version of Apple Grove even though we had extra time.

PM- 1.05 warm up then .75 of speed drills followed by 16 minutes of 30 30. I was hitting around 5:10 on the hard and hit 2.6. Barefoot mile cool down then stretched and did abs. We got our relay team and in leg order it's Jared, me, Brian, Ali, Riley. Shoutout to my Kinvara Seniors for hitting 400 miles today.

AM- 2.9 miles. Canal South.

PM- Jared and I decided to run with the Lone Peak guys today. It was fun running with them even though I was feeling a little sick. Stopped in American Heritage to get a drink and they told us we had to have shirts to come in but a guy there was nice and let us in anyways. Varying distances from all the watched but I got 8.7 miles.

AM- Ran to Lindon Park like usual before a race.

PM- 4 easy with the relay team and Matt. We went to Lindon Park again. 200 easy, medium, hard once we got back to the track. Stretched and got some tape on. While we were stretching we got hyped by listening to Into You by Ariana Grande and also listening to Chum Drum Bedrum Weird Russian singer. Look it up it's a great song and the music video is incredible! Having some of the guys over for dinner tonight so it should be a good time.

Woke up early to get to the high school for Grass Relays. We got to Westlake and then ran the course. Jared, Brian, Riley, Ali and I had a lot of time to kill so we just hung out under the canopy and talked to some people. Jared and I warmed up a mile then he drained his legs then I did. It was weird warming up because we were all racing at different times. Hung out with AF mainly waiting for the race to start. Jared handed off to me in a good position. I started out way too fast because Davis wasn't that far ahead of me but I went to catch him which wasn't a good idea because after about 1.5 he passed me back. Ran a 10:49. I need to start slower. Fun race though and still not sure where we finished, my coach thinks around 12th. Cooled down a mile after the relay was over. It was good seeing everybody today. Update- Official time was 10:46 and we took 12th.
