Be the team that goes hard on the last two

Another pain free run. I ran by myself today again, man that's getting old with nobody to keep me company besides Brandon flowers, Anthony kiedis, Julian casablancas ya know I could go on forever but I did the superdome loop and extended around the high school area. Still snow in the superdome so that's cool

Finally ran with someone. It was Bryson, my sweet desert blossom. I had work from 11-4 and I didn't want to run before cuz I'd have to wake up, eew. So me and Bryson started running at 5 ish. We did the riverbed trail out by little black mountain. Went out 2.5 then came back and started the workout, it was 10x1:30 with equal recovery. Felt really good. Me and Bryson worked together in the dark and it was scary but fun and a good workout. Cooled down the rest of the mileage which was only about .2 

7 total including warmup and strides. Finally ran with the team today. Good to be back. 

Half mile warmup then 7 easy. Didn't feel so easy cuz I had tiki like a half hour before practice lol. Shoutout to me for getting all my credits completed, now I have 3 classes this semester!! Weights after the run so that was good.

Ran 6 easy out to the spectrum today. Finally starting to feel a little normal.

Half mile warmup then 7 easy out to the right side of the boneyard to the pit of records. Good run. It was cold but I felt good and talks with Boston are always good. Weights after the run was good

Half mile warmup then 4 easy to hidden valley in the mud.

Ran with Jaiden today which was better than running alone. We had 7 miles with a 3 minute push towards the end. The run was great, we did little black mountain and it was nice talking to Jaiden after not seeing him for a while. We started the workout at 1 mile to go and it felt great, we made it .6 in the 3 minutes. Felt really smooth and didn't really go to the well, it was really smooth. Jaiden seemed way out of shape but give him a week, he'll be back lol

Half mile warmup then 6 easy then strides. We went up the golf course and it was nice. We've got the kosby on Wednesday I'm excited and I'm excited to show the team my nice little route at little black mountain tomorrow.

coach changed it from navajo drive to little black mountain  cuz of the trail i took that one time. so we went there and ran 8 miles and instead of going straight at about 3.5 miles out, we took a different trail that went left and ran along the powerlines and it was really great. good talks and good run with everybody. lots of promising youngns

We had the kosmin today. 2.5 mile warmup, drills, strides then the kosmin which is a test to show kind of where our mile times might be, it's a minute all out then three minutes rest then a min all out then two min rest then a minute all out then a min rest then a min all out. The first one was good, me Jaiden josh spence Boston Riley and Bryson in a group, we hit the 400 at around 57 ish. It got slower from there for me, I made it 1504 meters in the 4 mins hard which equates to about a 4:33 mile. Not bad but not where I want to be but good stuff from everyone today. 

Ran 3 easy this morning to hidden valley. First morning run of track, also my last first morning run ever. Ugh being a senior 

Afternoon was good. Half mile warmup then four easy out to the spectrum then strides. The run was decent and then we had our first hard weights session today. Good stuff, it's good to be back into the swing of things. I think it'll help me with my motivation.

Cold three easy to hidden valley again. I think my brother got me sick, we'll see. 

Afternoon was fun. We did a half mile warmup then drills then 2 mile warmup then 8x200m hill repeats behind the high school then a little cool down. Felt good, coach said only go at 80%. It was good stuff from everybody

Me still feeling a little sick + working all day + not being able to eat right because of work + it being cold outside + a lack of motivation today = not wanting to get out and run today. But I'm glad I did. I went 8 miles to the boneyard by myself. Nice and slow, just enjoyed it. 

Woke up and felt sloshed. Wendys takes a toll on you, especially when Carlos makes a sandwich for you at midnight and you feel bad that ur not hungry but eat it anyway. Drove out to the zen trail. I love that trail, it's slow and hilly and technical which is my favorite. Ran 8 miles out there. The legs feel pretty plastered after the hills so I'll roll today. Fun run, spencer came and shot his arrows at stuff once the run flattened out. There was a big water jug that he put a hole right through, it was dope

3 easy this morning to hidden valley. Same group as usual plus coach came this time. Me and Boston had our nice talks as usual, (usually about music) and we're going to an awolnation concert in Vegas on the 5th. If anyone wants to go, hit us up

Drove out to Warner valley for a tempo on the dirt. I love those. 3.5 mile warmup, 18 min tempo with goal pace 6:00-15 for first 13 minutes, then 5:25-30 for last 5 minutes, half mile cool down. Felt really good. Nice pack with me bos josh Bryson Jaiden spencer. Hit 5:58(going up the hill) 5:42 (coming down the hill) 5:29 then finished the last little bit. Felt smooth and wasn't too hard. Good stuff from everyone 

3 easy to the bridge this morning 

Drove out to the Arizona strip for wilderness Wednesday. Ran 8 easy out around the other side of little black mountain. Legs are a little tired but that's from The hills on Monday so it's all good.

Ran 3 easy this morning to hidden valley. Workout today 

Afternoon was fuuuun.  2.5 mile warmup, drills, fartlek :15, :30, :45, 1:00, 2:00, 2:30, and back down at BHNP. Felt good even though I had pork and sriracha for lunch lol. Cooled down another 2 and had hardcore weights part 2 when we got back. Felt good for that too. 

Easy 3 to the spectrum this morning and we're done for the day, siiiiiiick

Prom was today so that was fun. We woke up early to get down to mesquite for the balloon festival at like 6:30, then me Boston kasey and Bryson went to run. We were supposed to do 8 and we were gonna but we ended up driving out to Utah hill and we took 91 out until the left turn at the brown sign that Says Mohave national desert or whatever and we took that left, then kept driving and parked at the base of the highest peak which I assume is Utah hill. We were gonna run on the fire road but we were feeling adventurous so we bushwhacked the entire way up the peak. There's a false summit that we summited before the big one. Once we started the real climb, we came across three wild horses (no kidding, they were wild horses, not tamed by people) so we didn't want to take any chances with wild animals so we went around them which meant we had to go down and back up. So we did that and ended up running up a snowy ridge until we got to the top of the highest peak, which was so so sick. Ran back down and had to avoid the horses again. It took us about 2 hours to do this run so you can see how hard it was. Really really fun though. Then I saddled up for prom, we ate dinner then went to the dance and it was fun. But man that run was crazy  

Today was good. 2.5, drills, then 12xMcGruff hill repeats, then 4x200m progression finishes, then a small cool down to the weight room then hardcore weights part 3. The first few mcgruffs were hard cuz of Utah hill on Saturday but my legs warmed up to it. The progression finishes were fun, we started at 70% for the first 100m then all out with 50m to go. Then weights was good, I upped the weight a lil too. 

3 easy to hidden valley this morning. 

Afternoon run went by fast.  7.5 easy to the boneyard. Talked with Boston about good stuff the whole time. Talking about stuff with Boston makes the runs go by so fast. He thinks he roasts me but we're pretty even. 

3 easy this morning to the spectrum. 

Afternoon was fun. 4 mile warmup, drills, 20 min tempo with goal pace 6:00 for first 10 min then drop a little the next 5 min then push in the last 5 min, then a half mile cool down. Felt really good today despite it being longer and faster than last weeks tempo. Hit 6:10, 5:55, 5:27, then for the last .5 ish it was about 5:15 pace. Good stuff from everyone today

3 easy to hidden valley this morning 

Afternoon was half mile warmup then four easy to the spectrum. My mind is just shattered. 

afternoon was tough. 2.5 warmup, drills, then 4x800m up webb hill with recovery back to the start, 2 mile cooldown. this was a hard week but i feel like i finished it off pretty well. i didnt time the repeats but bryson did and he said we hit 3:17, 3:16, 3:13, 3:09. so thats good but i just focused on form and sticking with it which i think is better than times. hills are hard but i like them. also i love how we're a decent amount into the season and we haven't even hit the track for a workout at all yet, thats great to me because i don't like track and this feels more like cross country. i love it. good stuff from everyone today.

Long run today. We did it on a loop that coach knew out at Navajo drive. It was super super hilly and slow but it was really really fun. I'm way tired now lol time to work on sterling scholar
