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.

Easy Halloween 10 at 6:15 am. It was actally really fun! I headed up to USU and ran through campus then down to First Dam, then up to Cliffside, and back through River Heights then by LHS. Great temps at 50 degrees, all I needed were some arm sleeves. Made sure to keep it easy in the first half, which made it very enjoyable. I think I'll have to come to accept that when running just after waking up it's harder to run as fast. 7:14 ap.

Tried to do a fartlek up Logan Canyon which involved picking it up every quarter mile on and off. It was cold and rainy. I did fine and felt good up until I hit the single track then it all went to crap because it was muddy and the surface just wasn't consistent enough, so by the time I got to the turn around just past Spring Hollow I took it easy. It was freaking snowing up there! I did pick it up the last two miles and those were about 5:50 to 6:00 pace and they didn't actually feel too bad. By the end I was soaked and very cold. 7:04 ap.

8 easy at 5:45 am :'0 I met Strand a mile in and ran with him for two miles by his house, then I went on my own and ran the River Trail and back home through Willow Park. It was very foggy, kinda cool to be honest. 7:16 ap.

Track workout today, 10x800. 400 jog in 3 minutes rest on all of them, except for #6 (my watch fell off which startled me and messed up my heart rate so I took an extra minute after that one). Times:

2:42, 2:41, 2:38, 2:45, 2:38, 2:36, 2:41, 2:40, 2:36, 2:34 / 2:39 Avg.

I'm glad I hit those times because I was worried when I did it on the treadmill that I wouldn't be able to do the same thing on a track. Stayed in the Zantes the whole time even though I brought my flats haha, I think I'll keep using them as sort of more cushioned flats because they are really light. After #3 I chilled out on purpose but ended up going harder again right after, and it didn't feel too bad. The average probably would have been a second or two faster if I didn't have the watch problem, or it's good to think that. Talked to Strand and Maddie during the beginning so that was cool. I'm running the Turkey Trot 5k on the 19th so I'm gonna do 5k specific training until then, which will be fun. Beautiful beautiful day to be out running!

Easy run with Ben up Logan Canyon in the morning. I was pretty sore and tired from all the 800s yesterday so it's a good thing he bared with me, and we took it slow, even though it didn't feel craz slow. 7:13 ap.

Well, I wanted to run with somebody today but noone could make it, but I still went to Avon Pass like I planned. Got started kinda late, around noon, but it was still just under 60 degrees and sunny. I got about a quarter mile in when I came to this black, medium sized cow on the side of the road, and it got sooo scared. There were fences on either side and it ran back and forth across the road looking for an escape about 3 times, until it finally took a desperate hurdle across the fence on the right and cleared it luckily. Must have been fairly young cuz the old ones jsut stare at you haha. Just a fun story. So I kept going and didn't feel that good but went up 6 miles at about a 7:22 average. (First mile was 99ft and gradually increased till the last mile gained 200ft, but for some reason it it appeared to level off, hmm) Had some very annoying dirt bikers zoom past me but luckily heard no gun shots (wore a bright orange shirt just in case). Turned around and I immediately felt better and faster (duh). During miles 8-11 I did the same kind of fartlek I attempted on Tuesday, pushing it every quarter mile. Got a side stitch the last half mile. I think I didn't feel too good today because of dehydration, and I had work yesterday but I don't think that affected me too much. Really great effort! 6:46 ap.
