normal warmup and 4 easy to the spectrum pre meet. spencer joined us so that was awesome

Idk how many miles we ran, we ran around the BYU campus and then did 4x200m finishes on Provos track. I'm feelin ready for state 

MY LAST 1600M RACE OF HIGH SCHOOL

Did all my rituals. Warmed up and the stomach felt heavy but I was ready to push through that. Gun went off and I didn't get out well which was kinda part of my plan, I wanted to do the exact opposite of what I did at region. Mid pack at the first lap. Then I started picking it up. I moved into about 7th at 800m. Then with 600m to go I made a huge move and moved from about 7th or 8th to third. I was running in third until 200m to go, when mckade and Bryson went around me. I sprinted with them for the last 200, they just had stronger kicks and got me. At the line, a Logan guy got me and it was so close that they had to make us wait for like 15 min to get the official results to the thousandths of a second. I blame it on his Adam's apple. Finished in 4:29.5. It's a PR, but I didn't quite get my place goal. I'd be pissed if I wussed out on myself, but those guys just had stronger kicks. Really good races from everyone today. I'm sad that that was my last mile race but I've got the 3200 tomorrow and I'm gonna kill it; it's my last high school race. Good stuff from everyone today. 

LAST RACE OF HIGH SCHOOL

This was it. Felt better than usual on the warmup. We had to wait in the bullpen for a looong while because a kid passed out on the track during one of the previous races. Gun went off. I got out mid pack again, didn't wanna die towards the end. I never once looked at the clock so that was an accomplishment for me. Mile 1, I was mid pack and then started moving up. I remembered how bad I wanted us Dhills giys to go  1 2 3 4. I moved into 6th behind Eric Jaiden josh Bryson and mckade. Every time Jaiden surged I would stick with it; I'm proud of myself for that. I then moved into 5th with 400m to go, me and josh duked it out the entire last 400 meters. 200 meters to go and josh surged and I tried to match but he kicked harder than I could.  Finished 5th in 9:43.18, which is .01 off my PR lol. Altitude conversion from here to Chandler tho and I'm happy. 

This was really emotional afterwards. Coach came over and was crying and I was holding back tears; this was my last race as a high schooler. These last 4 years with my brothers and coaches have been so perfect. I've made so many friends and had so many great opportunities to perform and have fun and be successful and I'm so grateful for coach fielding for these last 4 years of my life. I wouldn't have it any other way. The things I've done these last 4 years, I'll remember for the rest of my life.

Then me and Boston decided to go run squaw peak for fun haha. Scott (who had not run in 5 months) came with us and he actually ended up beating us up the mountain lol. We decided we really wanted pizza pie care but we didn't have a ride, so we ran there lol it was awesome. I love those guys. 

Really great and memorable end to my high school career. We ended up winning out 4th straight state title. I'm so grateful to be a part of such a stellar team, I've had so much fun and I love each and every one of you. Even those who aren't on my team. I've had so much fun meeting people and racing other people, and huge shoutout to my fellow seniors on the blog, I'm sure you're feeling the same way.  Good stuff from everyone today.

Now just stay tuned for my transition into collegiate running at SUU.
