Long-Term Running Goals:

After my mission (tentatively June 2017-June 2019), which will be two years of virtually no running, I want to build my fitness back up stronger than it ever was before. Then when I think I am ready I may attempt for a spot on the USU roster again. We'll see how long I have to do that based on age and eligibility and stuff. If I don't ever do it that's fine, I'll still have a lot of fun with running. Some times I want to beat someday:

15:30 5K 

1:10 HM

2:40 Marathon

I have a fantasy in my mind of really breaking through in the marathon and making the olympic trials but we'll see about that haha. That would honestly be a dream come true. I definitely want to run the Boston Marathon at least once. Also maybe when I'm old but not too old I might try a 100 miler to qualify for Western States. 

 

 

Personal:

Freshman at Utah State University. I still have not chosen a major. Just graduated from Logan High School in May 2016. One thing I enjoy aside from running is music, weather it's playing or listening. I am member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and plan on serving a two-year mission after two semesters of school.

So this week I'm not going to do any real workouts in order to recharge mentally and somewhat physically for outdoor season. That doesn't mean I can't push it a little bit on some of my runs but yeah, It'll basically be like a given week in early summer xc training. Moderate aerobic.

Today Paul was feeling sick and Kalin had a job interview and I don't know where Jack was so I ran on my own, did a loop out to Providence on Spring Creek Road and kept going south a bit, then came back through some neighborhoods. I wasn't feeling too shabby so I went 6:56 average for the run. My left leg was having one of it's weak days tho and the left shoe felt weird. I tried not to let it bother me, cuz stuff like that usually comes and goes. That was 6.3 miles. I got back and did 4x100 on the track with accelerations and decelerations so it wasn't too intense. Then I lifted.

6 miles on a loop out north today at what turned out to be 7:00 ap with the last four miles sub-7. It didn't even feel that fast, more like 7:10 pace. It was a bit warmer today than yesterday, and the sun was out. Track starts this Monday, Leap Day! My legs were still feeling off balance, but they felt good as in not tired. When I got back I did a couple 200s in just under 30 on the track, I felt tired for those. Then I did a bunch of core workouts while I waited for my ride. Tomorrow I'll have somebody to run with, and somebody better come and run with me or I'm gonna loose my mind.

Easy 5 miles down Park Avenue and back through the River Trail with Paul. 7:12 pace. We got back to the track and Miranda O'Very was doing a workout there lol. We did 4x100. Didn't feel too bad today. It's been getting warmer all week too.

So today I decided to do a pseudo workout, which was just a fast run. Turns out I wasn't feeling too hot today. I ran with Paul up to Old Main, then kept going east and down the hill the First Dam, and came back on Sumac and Center St. I decided to where I Cliftons for some reason, haha, those shoes are definitely trashed. So yeah, I just didn't feel too great and neither did Paul but we kept it going, and the only time we stopped without a light was when I had to tie my shoe. It was really tough going up Old Main, and then it was a bit easier to open up once we started going downhill. Finished up with two laps on the track. Non grade adjusted splits were: 6:53, 7:21, 6:51, 6:15, 6:55, 6:36, 6:34 and 6:10 for the last .3 No strength work today, I was too tired.  6:45 average.

Well, my plans for running changed today when I left my running stuff in seminary and the building was oddly locked after school. So I went home and did homework and procrastinated my run until about 8 oclock so it was dark. To get 40 this week all I had to do was run 4 today and 10 tomorrow so I went on a nice little run out to Willow Park, and then I took a detour on the way back in some neighborhoods by Woodruff. Felt relaxed, it was 7:40 pace. Since I didn't have my normal trainers I decided to whipped out some shoes I havn't worn since Junior XC season, the Brooks Pure Drift. They are zero drop shoes with almost no cushioning. I think they got me injured when I wore them lol. But I thought it wouldn't hurt to wear them for one run, it's not like I'm running in flats everyday (S/O to Joe Howell). I like night runs sometimes. Track starts on Monday!

I was planning on running in the morning, but typically, I slept in and had other obligations during the day. So I was not able to do my long run until it was getting dark but I decided to still do it, BUT I got dropped off all the way out in east Hyde Park, about 10 miles from my house. I saw Ethan out running like right where I got dropped off, lol just missed him tho. Mile one was nice because it was way downhill, then I ran up to the Shoreline trail but it was too snowy so I dropped down to Lundstrom, ran through the neighborhoods a bit to get enough mileage, went sort of around the Logan Cemetery and by the Spectrum, down past Old Maine, and I stopped off at the LHS track before I headed home. Almost all the snow is gone for practice on Monday! Did some strides there and went home. A nice surprise. I started with two shirts but it was too warm so I had to hold one the whole time. 7:23 average. Would have been faster but the trail part was really slow. It was dark basically the entire time, good thing I had a head lamp. Felt pretty realaxed and ran at sub-7 the last few miles.
