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.

First run since State. I ran alone, and I did LHS to Nature Park to Cliffside, down a cool little trail that I've never been down before, which led to a suuuuuper steep downhill driveway that hurt like heck running down, that took me onto the Island (sumac drive), then I ran back to the on the Canal trail and then by the temple through downtown. In the last mile and a half I kinda had to book it because I realized it was almost time for me to get picked up. Even half going hard I only dipped under 7 minute pace cuz I felt super flat, but that's expected. My shin was bothering me more than I thought it would, and I felt pretty lopsided (left leg weak). I think that's something that can fade away as long as I'm careful about things, like ice and do leg strength excercises. Tomorrow I'll go a little less distance, then maybe do some strides but definitley weights. Just had the thought that I don't have to worry about running on grass for a very long time, maybe never, and I'm happy about that because that's when my leg feels most uneven and not stable. Everytings on the road, or packed dirt (foot locker has 100m of grass and then its all pavement, dirt, and track). I've got my eyes on two races in the little mini "season" I've got the Turkey Trot 10K then FL. PUmped!

Ran alone again, this time up temple, then onto campus and did a loop, ran down to USU's track, and turned around and ran back to the high school. I like running up to campus dunno why. I felt good, my turnover was good, everything was good. My leg wasn't hurting as much as yesterday. Did two strides on the curve of the track, one of them backwards because that's how Mt. SAC ends. Didn't feel too weird actually. That was about a 7:25 average without the strides. Then I did some lifting (just a little). I'm going to make sure to get in the weight room at least twice a week and do core/hip drills at least twice a week for now on, starting this week and lasting into the start of track season. I know it'll benefit me a lot.  I think if not the last half of this week than next week coach will start doing Foot Locker practices, and I know Jack's running right now anyways, I just haven't talked to him since state. Gotta get a training group together. Tempo tomorrow!

Today I ran up to the River-Prov loop and did a three mile threshold there, I didn't clear my watch for it so I don't have exact splits, but I was around 6:30 pace the whole time. Towards the end I started digging a little bit of a well, but it's my first workout since state, so I can't complain. Felt pretty good for the most part, my shin didn't hurt at all. After that onthe way back I stopped at the bottom of River Heights hill and did a couple strides on it, probably around 200. They felt good I like the grade on it for doing stuff like that I'll probably do some more stuff there. When I got back to track I ran into to Coach Strand and we did a like 2 and a half laps together. Good day overall! I think I'm gonna have some good training this month.

Easy run today. I ran out to the dump road and Strand and I ran easy while Isabella did her threshold (she was running at like 9 min pace felt kinda bad running easy at 7:30 pace) but yeah we sorta helped her out with it and then I just ran back to the school. My lower legs felt weird and tight. I did 4x200 on the track, which was really great actually ran the first one 31 high and the rest were 29 mid to high. Felt like the football team was staring at me the whole time, but what can ya do? So yeah then I went and got some lifting on and jogged like a half mile on the tread to test the treadmill feature on my watch. It's inaccurate says I ran way less than I actually do, but I'll figure out how to calibrate it.

AM: Went to the hospital and did a stress test on the treadmill for my heart. It was a lot different and uncomfortable than I had imagined. I had a ton of monitered strapped to me and I had to hold onto the bar at all times, and none of it was real running because the system starts you out walking at 0 incline, than every three minutes the incline increased by quite a bit and so does the speed. I got through it for 20 minutes and than they had me stop because they had all the data they needed and my shoe cae untied. It was pretty tough and it hurt for a bit. They said that they had never seen anyone get so far on that test, so I feel pretty accomplished. Wasn't counting on only getting like 2 miles in though.

NOON: Drove up to Lundstrom to run on the canal trail up there. I did that then took a path up the Bonneville Shoreline Trail, ran on the Highline Trail a bit (I was feeling really good by now) and then I took the trail that cuts through the country club golf course and this old man got really angry and yelled at me about how I was trespassing and I shouldn't be there, so I sped waaaayy up and ran outta there and gradually got back to normal pace the further away I got, still ran a 6:30 mile. Felt pretty good that was fun, 4 miles 7:39 average (the incline was brutal to the pace)

Ran the Deer Fence with Paul. Felt decent but kept it above 8 minute pace. We turned around halfway down the death hill, that sucked going up. In the last ~3 miles I started putting in 1 minute pushes with equal recovery cuz I didn't get that much of a workout in yesterday. They felt good, but probably because I was on a mostly downhill section, but it was still rolling hills. Then I hit the monster hills and I blew up, plus I was feeling diarrhea starting to come out, that wasn't fun at all. Good thing I had kleenexes in my car, geez! Good run though. I found out the night before that there was a 10K put on by TOU today (for halloween) and I was sad I didn't find out sooner, might've signed up but it's good, training is more important and I'm gonna run the Turkey Trot in few weeks anyways.
