Line em' up and knock em' down!

3 in the morning.

Micro workout in the afternoon. We did a 2 mile warmup, 4*400 @ race pace, and a mile cooldown. Just a little turnover before state.

4 in the afternoon around Liberty Park in Salt Lake. Getting pretty nervous for tomorrow. No excuces.

Amazing day.

We woke up, and took all of the clothes we had gathered, and took them down to the park, and handed them out to the homeless people. Awesome experience. 

Went up to coach's room, had our final pep talk, and went over to the state course. 

The race went pretty good. Got out well, settled in after the first hill, and just coasted for the first mile. Was feeling pretty gassed after the big hill at the end of the mile, but I started going anyway. Pineview's varsity had all gone out together as a big pack, and I knew that I'd have to catch most of them if we even wanted a shot at winning. Cought their 7th guy at about 1.3 in. Cought up to Logan Hall at around 1.8, and stuck with him for about a quarter mile. Then I started going. Passed Nick Hill at about 1000m to go, and just kept on going. Caught another 4 or 5 guys and almost passed Julian as I finished. Overall, it wasn't too bad.I didn't feel flat before the race started, and I had plenty of energy to do what I needed to do.  Everyone else onour team did really swell too, and we were able to win state for the fourth year in a row! I'm super glad that I was finally able to be a part of our team't legacy. 

Coach told us to take the morning off because we got back to St George at like 11:30

We went fo our celebratory frosty run down to Wendy's. Fun stuff. 

3 in the morning

2 mile workout @ race pace. Went 10:44. Quite a bit slower than where I'd like to be, but it's okay considering that state was just a couple of days ago. Had our talk about NXSW and NXN. Coach says that we still have a shot if we can all go sub 15:45 for the 4K. Time to get to work. 

Went and took the ACT today. Dallen Gillespie from Pineview and Spenc were there, so we decided to go run the ridge together. Fun run. Talked about fun moments and stuff. Good times.
