Be the team that goes hard on the last two

The 2 week break is finally over! Ran by myself today. I drove out to little black mountain and instead of turning right when I park to run towards the mountain, I went straight and then took my first left, and there's a whole different system of trails out there it's pretty sweet. Didn't feel any aches or pains, and my breathing was good. Experimenting with the new quicker easy days thing, I like it cuz we will get done faster. Great run this morning.

another great run. picked up boston to go run the strip. we drove out on the main road and took our first right like we were going to the gypsum mine, then we ran adjacent to it and took a right turn on this trail that took us realy close to the gorge, it was dope. good talks and a good run, sick day.

Ran 6 by myself this morning. I drove out on the strip and found a different road on the left side of the main road, took that trail and found out the hard way that it ended at 1.3 miles so I bushwhacked out til 3, got a lil lost but I managed to find my car and hit 6 miles lol fun time though 

Good run today. I was a little busy with stuff so I couldn't run during my free period so I ran after school. I did the ridge. I love rainbow road with all my heart. Saw spencer up on the ridge too which was fun. I wish he would do track. In other news, I got the presidential scholarship (full tuition) to SUU and I won STERLING SCHOLAR in world languages!!!!! That's a 200 dollar cash prize and a year of tuition to UVU!! So stoked 

Crazy rain and cold today. I had my mom check me out of third so I could run a little earlier, we had a sub so we were just watching a video so I didn't miss anything. I decided to try a new trail then decided not to, so I just went to Navajo drive.  But there's this trail by Navajo drive called bear claw poppy so I ran on it and it was absolutely the dopest trail ever, it was so great. Lots of hills tho, but that's good. Good run even though my hands almost fell off from the cold 

Good run today. Picked up Bryson to go do the secret canyon. I love that run. Always fun. Good talks with Bryson today, and this has just been a really good week. Shoutout to myself for getting a 90 on the AP Calc test, probably creamed Scott lol

Drove Bryson and lily out to Utah hill to run so we could run in the snow. We ran in the snow for 4 miles And I would have gone 6 but I was worried about my car getting stuck so I turned around at 2. Ran another 2 miles when I got home so I could get6. Good stuff and snow is the best

Ran in the morning this morning. Ran by myself. I drove out to Warner valley and took the road all the way down and then instead of turning right by that house to go to little black mountain, I went straight and ran on the fire road until it turned into some super sweet trails, I ran through a river bed full of ice and it was so sick. I like not meeting as a team right now, it gives me time to just explore and have fun. 6 miles

ran with bryson today. we did the rainbow road loop and started the workout once we hit the road to hidden valley. had to run a lil later due to designing our state rings, not a bad problem to have lol. we had 6 miles with 8x30 sec with 30 sec recovery. first workout of track season! felt comfortably hard. bryson pushed it today, that was good. hes a stud for his age. felt good and its good to get rollin.

Played basketball with tanner and tommy, maybe it's a little fartlek lol. Then ran 4 miles in the dark out to sunriver. Fun day 

Ran by myself today. Parked at the start of Warner valley and ran up the hill going east then at the top turned left on the trails out there, people were shooting and it was scary but it was a fun run dodging bullets lol #guncontrol

Remind me not to do the ridge after an all nighter lol 

Ran 7 miles today while Scott did 6. Might have killed him a little lol. We did the trail I did last week where we run through a riverbed, but since I went another half mile out, I got to see some sick stuff, which included some old ruins that turned out to be fort Pearce.  Really fun run 

Ran by myself. I just did the reverse little black mountain and went left again. I always feel like crap on the way out but on the way back I feel like a million pesos, weird huh. Maybe it's just cuz no warm up going into the run. I'm really excited to meet as a team again

Workout with Bryson today. It was 7 miles with 10x30 sec w equal recovery. We ran out at Warner valley but we took the cool trails instead of the fire road. Started the workout at like 5.5 and it felt good, comfortably hard, I was breathing good. Then we cooled down to 7. Second workout of track, man. I just can't wait to race again 

Ran 5 easy by myself to sunriver. Achilles hurts really really bad, maybe I'll just bike in the hotel while I'm up north. I'll try running but I don't wanna jack anything up ya feel

No run or anything today. Too busy to try and bike in the hotel and I also wanted to takes day off for my Achilles thing to feel better. Better to miss one day now than weeks later in the season ya feel 

Ran 8 miles total with 10x1:00 hard w equal recovery thrown in there when I got back from slc. Achilles started acting up about halfway through so that sucked. We'll see how it goes.

Ran 7 easy by myself to the boneyard. Achilles felt good until about 1.5 miles left. Idk man. Shoutout to Ryan raff for literally staying like a half mile from my house, just @ me if u wanna run some time or something lol

Coach said keep it flat and easy so I went and did the regular little black mountain trail. Achilles bugged the whole time but really hurt the last mile. Massage today, it better help.

Update: Adam is a wizard. The Achilles is still sore but that's probably because he went super hard on it, we'll see how it goes tomorrow. In other news, me and Scott balled hard today one on one and he beat me the first game but the second game I came back haaard, he still beat me but only by one basket, I had some good drives, he can just drain every dang three. Afterwards he gave my Christmas present which turned out to be a dope machete, check my snapchat story to see what it looks like, thanks Scott my sweet desert blossom 

Just ran 5 by myself to the boneyard. Kept it slow and easy. Finished the run not limping, but there were a few twinges every now and then. It was like a dull sore but that was probably from the massage, hopefully that run loosened up the area and it can start healing. If the feeling I felt today wasn't pain from the massage then I might have to take some days off which I really don't want to do, so let's hope it was just tight from the massage. Also I looked to the right of the boneyard and there was snow in the superdome so that was sick 

As I'm laying in bed right now, there's no Achilles pain however I move it. Today's run will kind of be the check point as to whether or not I have to take time off so wish me luck.

PAIN FREE

Really good run today. Went and did the boneyard again by myself, saw Bailee out running so that was nice. There were occasional dull twinges whenever I landed on a rock or something on the trail, but other than that I was pain free in the Achilles for this run. I don't want to jinx myself but I think I'll be fine.
