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.

Track Workout: 

10 min E-pace + 3x (1600m I-pace w/ 4 min rests) + 10 min E-pace

I'm surprised I did this seeing that we are out of school this week and the last thing I wanted to do was be there again. I ran there for a warmup, and it didn't feel so good. When I saw some other track people, so that was nice. I stretched and did my first set, in which I felt like I was racing, when really it was around a 6 minute mile. Then I ran the next two miles even slower. I geuss I just don't have alot of energy today. The cooldown to my house felt way good, though.

That wasn't necessarily my best run ever. I should have gone a little bit slower, but that probably wouldn't have helped much. I just didn't have that good feeling that everyone wants on a run. I'm on spring break, and it was on a highway plus some dirt roads near my grandparent's house. The only fun part was when I surged in about the last 400m. I think tomorrow I might try something less monotonus with some hills and such. At least the weather was nice today, I wasn't expecting that from Idaho in early spring.

That was a terrible run, I was getting hot, I kept getting tired, and it was snowing. My jacket felt heavy, too. I think this increased altitude is really affecting me. I think it will benefit me though. I have a tough track workout tomorrow, it involves 3200s, just like last friday.

That was tough, but it would have been tougher if I had done the whole thing. I only did one set. I ran 2 miles at what was prabably alot faster than T-pace.Then I did 8 200s at R-pace. The worst part about was that it was on the road because the local track was still covered in snow.  I was dieing during the 3200. Either the altitude is getting to me, or I'm having a bad week.

Crap that run felt just as bad as saturday at one point. I ran with Vickie and Keith all the way up to first dam and about half a mile up the canyon, then I turned around before they did and after that I 3.75 slow, sluggish miles all the way back to the school. I think I was really underhydrated. I'll work on drinking more water during the day for now on.

That was an awesome run! It wasn't the best run, but it was good. It had some good scenery, that was probably what made it enjoyable. Maybe it would have been better if I hadn't drank five cream sodas yesterday.  I think I'm just barely getting acclimated to the elevation. I can't wait to take the route I took next time I'm here!
