7 miles by myself in Idaho Falls. There's no sidewalks anywhere in IF, so it's super sketchy running anywhere. It didn't help that these people party like it's the 4th of July for the week before, so there was a lot of drunk drivers. Made it back safley though :)

Probably the worst pre race workup in the history of the world. Got into bed at 9 the night before, but it would seem that I wasn't destined to get to bed on time. My grandparents keep thair house at like 82', so I was sweating bullets (literally) trying to get to sleep. It didn't help that everyone was partying like crazy either, cuz everytime I was about to drift off, a massive mortar would go off above the house and wake me right up. So, I didn't fall asleep until about 1 in the morning. 

All things considered, the race wasn't terrible for what it was. I got a decent time considering that it was longer than a 5K and I only got 4 hours of sleep, but I got to race against some collegiate athletes, so that was fun.

Rough run today. Got back from our vacation at like 5 and decided to go running. Haven't been keeping myself hydrated well, so I felt like I was going to die. For that same reason, I also cut back from going 8 and only did 6, which is ok considering that was my first run in the heat in almost a year.

2.5 mile warmup, 2.5 tempo, and 1.5 mile cooldown. I was supposed to go 20 min. for the tempo, but I was still super wasted and dehydrated from yesterday, so I decided to only do 2.5. Went about 6:00 pace, so that wasn't too bad.

3 miles in the afternoon

Still recovering from vacation. Hopefully I'll be back into full swing soon.

6 miles by myself over by Little Black Mountain. Felt super flat from doing my first doubles back at home, but it was a good run nonetheless. Saw Sage and Bryson out running on Warner Valley on the way back. Great guys.

2 mile warmup, 5*500m hill repeats w/ recovery back to the start, and cooldown to get milage. Pretty rough workout. My legs felt like they were gonna fall off by the end, so that's a good sign. We had Josh Thatcher, Scott, Boston, Sage, and Ben here today representing the alumni. Awesome guys. Josh and John McPhie get home this week too. Pokemon GO is gonna blow their minds :)

3 in the afternoon with Ethan and Matt.

7 miles out at Little Valley. Cut through some construction and found a trail that went to the top of one of the mesas around here. Pretty awesome.

Vo2 max test today. I had a little accident this morning, and my  nerves were shot, so coach just had me stick with Ethan, Tyler and Kacey and push them up. We did pretty good, getting about 10.6 laps in 15 min.

7 miles total. 2 mile warmup, 3*1 mile repeats at 85%, 3:00 recovery between each one, and cooldown to get milage. Was supposed to hit 6:05. Went 6:01, 6:01, and 5:57. Pretty easy workout, but a good way to finish off the workouts for the week.

Overall a really solid workout. I'm getting closer and closer to those top 3 boys, so that's always a good sign. 

Went and visited the Mcphies after practice. Havent grown much :) but they've definitley matured quite a bit. Hope they decide to come out to practice one of these days.

7 miles today out to the boneyard and 8*100 m strides. Kids camp afterwards. Solid run today. 

3 in the afternoon. I'm gonna count kids camp as some milage because we actually ran a bit.

12 miles @Little Black Mountain. First 9 miles were regular pace, next 2 were relaxed but fast, and last mile was cooldown. Averaged 7:30 for the first 9, went 5:30, 5:50 for the fast 2, and cooled down for the last mile. Overall a pretty solid run, and the farthest I've ran at once for awhile.

4 mile warmup, 30 min progression run, and cooldown to base. Started at 6:45, then dropped the pace by 10 sec/mi every 5 min. Around mile 2, Kasey caught up with me, and we hammered the rest of the workout together. Good stuff

 

First run of camp. Ran the Monarch Loop. Killer as always, but I can tell that I'm in much better shape than I used to be.

Delano Peak Summiting this morning. There were a lot of prizes on the line for the fastest 3 boys, so I actually wanted to try. Unfortunatley, the route that I chose to the top took me WAY off course, and I finished 4th close behind spencer.

 

Fun team relay by Puffer Lake in the afternoon. Felt super flat, but I did pretty good nonetheless.
