Today I ran with some of the track class kids for the begining of my run.  We ran over to Mountain Ridge Jr. high to see Galen's 5K record.  I hope I will beat it but I doubt I will.  I than ran down to the Ice bath spot in the river where the rest of the team stopped and took an ice bath.  I kept running and went down to AF where I talk to Mason Wright who tried to convince me and Zack my bro to go to AF.  I told him I would consider it.  I considered it for about 1 second that decided that I wasn't a traitor and like LP way more than I think I could like AF.  Felt pretty good today.  58 minutes.  7:10 average mile pace.

Today we did a hill work out.  Ryan wanted us to slow the hills down a little bit but I did not end up slowing down.  I got 2:13, 2:23, 2:24, 2:22.  I went out to fast on the first one so I got a little tired on the others.  After we did the hill work out we went up the rest of the hill that we do the hill workout on.  I had never been up the rest of the hill but once we got up there I regonized that it was by my friends old house.  We then ran back to the school.  55 minutes.  7:57 average mile pace.

Today was a B day so I ran by myself.  I decided to do bonneville.  I ran up to the trail head at a 6:56 pace.  On my next mile there were lots of hills and I was not going very fast so I got 8:15.  My next few miles were about 7:00 to 7:10.  I felt good today and so on my 2nd last mile I was back at 6:56 pace.  On my last mile I was on the road mostly so I was going pretty fast and ran the last mile at 6:17.  I felt pretty good and was happy that I could do bonneville today.  60 minutes.  7:15 average mile pace.

Today we did a tempo run.  It was 3x5.  We were supposed to go a little bit slower than our 5k pace.  On the first and third repeats I did not feel very good but on the second one I felt really good and stayed about 30 feet behind Justin instead of the usual 150 feet.  We went down on art dye and went on the Trash Run (I think, I was not there when they made up the name) then we crossed the road and started the second repeat.  We than went some way around AF and went up this hill.  We bearly made it up the hill in time for the third repeat.  We ran by AF rec and went down these cool stairs.  I was going at least 3 steps at a time.  Then we crossed a little river and we went into the Batcave.  We then found this tunnel and were going to climb up it but it was fenced off.   61 minutes.  7:31 average mile pace.

Today I ran by myself.  I ran over on the REAL golf course (the cedar hills one) and then turned left.  There were lots of signs that said Trail Closed but I just kept running past them.  I ran till about when we turn down or go on the golf course but there was this big pile of dirt in my way.  I did not look over the pile of dirt.  I just turned around and went up to canyon road.  I then went down a hill and across the road.  I ran up to where the wall starts and kept on going.  I then did the Mountain run and some more.  I than found this Chrismas tree that Lill warner and I once found.  I ran down to the road and tried to find my way back but i kinda got lost.  I ran around trying to find the road that goes back to the school but I could'nt find it.  I trailblazed until I found the mountain run trail again.  While I was trail blazing my foot hit a stick and a bunny jumped and started hopping away.  The bunny started making leafs crack so it made me jump.  Slow run today but longer.  71 minutes.8:21 average mile pace.

Today I ran with Josh C Justin and Lill warner.  We ran Hogs backwards.  This was the first time I have ever done hogs.  We did it backwards.  I felt pretty good today.  On the way up, Justin and Lill warner were up in front of me and josh.  On the down hill Josh and Lill warner were in front of me and Justin.  On the up hill there was lots of snow and mud.  I thought that that made it lots harder because ever step you slid back like 1/2 the step you just took.  We were running really fast on the down hill, like lill warner guessed 5:40 pace.  I like running down hill because I feel like I can go really fast.  Nice run today.  78 minutes.  8:32 average mile pace.

Today we ran on the golf course.  We turned left and the construction people were working, so Jamison Craik Justin me and Lill warner ran up this steep trail and tried to cut off the sophomores who had left the cool people.  We didn't so we ran and did the mountain run.  We than left the mountain run and went down onto the road and ran to Cole Greys house.  I don't really know cole Grey very well but he seemed really cool and really nice.  We than ran back to the school.  55 minutes.  I don't know the average mile pace because my watch ran out of battery.

Today we had a Tempo run.  I ran down on the murdock canal trail going west (towards the free way).  I did not know that the workout had changed so i did the 6 4 2 6 4 2 instead of the 6442.  I did the math wrong on when to turn around and went a little long.  I felt pretty good today.  I went out to the Blue and White building about and Smiths than I turned around.  70 minutes.  7:35 average mile pace.

Today we did a good'ol modest run.  I wish we just did a normal run because I wnated to get some good recovery miles in today.  I am starting to agree with galen about garbage miles.  I don't ever think 5 miles really counts.  But congrats to my bro zack for getting a Fast Running Blog.  WOOOOOOO.  47 minutes.  9:42 average mile pace.

Today I did a tempo run.  I ran down on art dye and ran on that one trail.  Mty tempo run was a 3fast 3 slow 3fast 3 slow 3fast then a cool down.  I did a 15 minute warmup before i started my tempo run.  I felt pretty good today.  Right below my knee was hurting after my run.  There was a little bump where it hurt so hopefully that is NOT bad.  I talked with the team before I left.  Every time they have the track class they get chocolate milk after.  I can't have chocolate milk because I am off sugar but it looks realllllly good.  47 minutes.  7:18 average mile pace.

Today was a good day.  I had a race.  It was really good.  I PR by 17 seconds.  We than went on this cool down with these westlake dudes.  I met jacob Robbins older Bro.  We were Jr high Friends in 7th grade.

Today we did hogs.  It was lots of fun.  We did it backwards.  For some reason Justins tooth always starts bleeding.  I don't know why?  75 minutes.8:06 average mile pace.

Today we met at legacy at 8.  We did the mountain run extended.  I did not feel very good today so I stayed in the back with Jacob and steven.  We were not running very fast.  In the first 2 miles, my left knee hurt really bad.  I did not enjoy running like I usally do.  The good thing was that we went to lill warners after and had waffles.  Durning the run galen steped on some twig and it stuck up in his shoe and hit his foot.  We stopped to get it out of his shoe.  56 minutes.  8:34 average mile pace.

Today it was a hilll workout.  We did 6x600.  It was very tiering.  It was the first 6x600 I have done this season.  I also had do to it by myself so it was lots harder.  I did part of the strength training with the track class kids and was quite tired by the end of that but I still had to do the hill workout.  It was with no break.  My fast time was part of the strength training.  Coach Meldrum was working our butts off.  I was very tired.  Tomorrow hopefully will be a good day of running.  55 minutes.  7:46 average mile pace.

Today we did a good ol modest run.  It felt pretty good.  I am still a little sore from strength training than a hill workout yesterday but it will start feeling better.  Today teh modest run was alot better thatn teh last one.  We actually went longer than 5 miles unlike the last one.  Shoutout to justin who we missed.  Shoutout to Galen who we also missed.  Get better soon.  After our modest run we ran down by art dye.  58 minutes.  8:15 average mile pace.

Today was supposed to be a workout but it got changed to a distance run.  We will have a workout tomorrow on the track.  I did not feel very good today so I went pretty slow.  I did bonneville today.  When I got home from school today, I noticed that I didn't have this packet that took me 4 or 5 hours.  I have been searching all day for this packet but have been unlucky and have not found it yet.  Hopefully it will be in my locker at school but who knows.  I don't want to do it again.  60 minutes.  8:05 average mile pace.

Today we had a workout.  It was pretty bad.  I hurt super bad today.  We did 4x1000 meters on teh track.  It was supposed to be at our mile pace but I was way to tired to do that.  I went a little bit slower than my mile pace.  Cole Grey was there today and helped call out our times.  On his instagram he says he probably doesn't like you but I think he is really nice and cool.  Justin did one of teh 1000's but didn't feel good so he dropped out.  Galen didn't feel good either so he didn't do the workout.  51 minutes.  7:14 average mile pace.

Today we were going to do hogs but no one felt good so we decided to to mountain run extended.  I felt tons better than I did on monday so we were going almost 40 seconds faster per mile.  I am still kind of sore from the workout yesterday.  I also can kindof still feel the strength training from tuesday and the hill workout.  Hopefullly not running on sunday will make me feel better.   57 minutes.  8:03 average mile pace.

today I ran down to art dye.  After I ran down to art dye, I ran on the trail to the south west of art dye.  I ran on that than turned on mountain ridges road but i was still quite far away from mountain ridge.  I ran down there than I went on the turn to the pond but did not have much time on my garmin so i did the golf course.  I still didn't get much today but it was a monday.  I always have a harder time on mondays becasue of teh day off.  50 minutes.  7:16 average mile pace.

Today we did 6x600 hills.  I am super tired today.  I did pretty good on the hills thou.  I got 2:13,2:12,2:15, 2:18,2:20.  We did it without a break before or after so I got worse each time.  On the warmup today I felt really good, but the workout was hard.  I ended up only doing 5 because Ryan told me to stop.  Today on teh cooldown Justin Craik (Craig) Russel and I went to galens house and made and XC out of rocks on his driveway.  It was fun.  57 minutes.  About 7:50 average mile pace (my watch didn't stop when i was in the bathroom).

Today was a B day so I was going to have to run by myself but lil warner had a choir rehersal so he ran with me.  We decided that we would run by AF and art dye.  We also went out farther than i went out on monday going west.  We were running faster than I usally run but slower than lill warner usally runs.  I like going fast thou.  At the beginning we were going at like 6:37 pace but we slowed down as we went.  We ended with about 7:00 pace.  We were talking the whole time which was nice but it does make it harder to run.  I like running with lil warner because he never runs out of something to talk about.  When we were running by art dye we were on the dirt trail by it and we were running down by the field and there was this rose bush that I moved and was careful to not poke myself but than when I let go, it scraped me... so much for taking forever.  58 minutes.  7:15 average mile pace.

Today was a rough run.  I ran with lill warner today.  We decided to go where the rest of the team went during the track class.  Today I had to get checked out of school for a doctors appointment and I didn't want to go back so I just went home.  I decided I would go to strength training and than run.  we ran to this rock out cropping in the mountain.  there was also a water basin.  I did not like this run.  We kept taking wrong turns than haveing to turn around and go down hill.  I don't like down hill at all.  I kind of like up hill but sometimes it gets old.  I did not run yesterday because I had a piano recital.  I hate piano.  It gets in the way of everything.  I did not get my varsity letter because I had a piano recital in the varsity race time but I had to run the JV race.  62 minutes.  8:46 average mile pace.  (because lots of hills.)

Today none of us really wanted to do hogs but Galen did so we decided to do it.  We decdied to do it back wards.  On about the 2nd mile I got a bloody nose but I kept running until I caught up to the front group becuase they had stopped.  They noticed that I had a bloody nose and stopped to wait.  Galen was prepared like a scout should be and had toliet paper in his tights pocket.  He gave me this toliet paper and I stuffed up my nose.  I did not feel very good because I think lots of blood went down into my stomach from my nose.  I felt sick for most of it.  I did fine on the up hill but on the down hill I did not feel good.  Usally i get around 6:36 pace for going down hill but today I got 7:45-8:00 pace.  Today was not the best.  87 minutes.  8:39 average mile pace.

Shout out to Galen because he is awesome and gives me toliet paper and is prepared like a scout.
