Personal: Freshman Year
Joining cross country my freshman year I didn't know what to expect. I came during the summer and did the workouts, I wasn't too serious about them but I didn't screw around either. At the alumni I got 21:51, not that fast but I still made it to Highland. At Highland I got 18:29, I was really suprised I did so well, I know the course is only 2.9 miles, but still. After that I started getting really serious with cross country. After a couple of more meets I made it to varsity. At the beginning of the year I would have never guessed that I would run varsity. At the end of the year I got the outstanding freshman award, I was proud to get it. My PR for this year was 17:52. My first year of cross country was really fun and it motivated me to work hard the next summer for the next season. I also did track, which wasn't nearly as fun as cross country. I only ran the 1600m and the 800 and I pretty much ran the same times for the whole season.
Sophomore Year
Sophomore year for Cross Country went pretty well. We all trained hard during the summer and it really payed off. The season was a bit bumpy for me, I wasn't really getting consistent times. One meet I would run a low 17 and the next a high 17. In the end the season turned out really fun and I hit a really big PR from last year.
Track went pretty well too. We started training and had some meets during the winter. This year I actually ran the 3200m and liked it a lot. I PR'd in pretty much every race that I ran in, it felt good. As I raced this season I felt more controlled and like a much more mature runner, even more than cross country.

MC @ Clearfield (1 Miles) 00:04:59, Place overall: 1, Place in age division: 1 | | So today we had a dual meet at Clearfield. My plan was to pretty much just run everything easy so I wouldn't be sore for the Grizzly Invitational on Saturday. I ran the 1600m first and I didn't go out fast. My first lap was probably 1:20, which was WAY slower than what I usually run and I was in the back of the pack. My next lap I sped up a little, but not much. When I finished that lap James was in first place and was probably 50-75 meters ahead of me. I wasn't tired at all so I decided that I could probably catch him and win the race (Spencer and Hayden didn't run it). I really sped up these next two laps and I caught up to him with 200m to go. I kicked hard and finished first with 4:59. I was super suprised by my time because of how slow my first laps were. Next wa

Grizzly Invitational (2 Miles) 00:10:33, Place overall: 10, Place in age division: 10 | | So today was the Grizzly Invitational at Logan. The 3200m was one of the first events and it was pretty cool outside when we ran it. They had us start staggered on mini-waterfalls, I actually quite liked this start better than everyone just on the big waterfall. I had never ran the 3200m before so I didn't really know what to expect. Trey ran a 10:40 at our first meet, so that's the time that my goal was around. I didn't start out to fast, I just stayed with the pack that was close to me. Throughout the race I just slowly passed people one by one in the pack. I finished 10th with a 10:33, which I was pretty happy with.
After I cooled down I just sat in the sun for four hours till the 1600m. The whole time I waited my hamstrings killed. They were pretty sore before the 3200m. Anyway, when the 1600m finally rolled around I was starving, even though I had eaten two PB&J's while I was waiting. We did the mini-waterfall start again, which I liked. I didn't start of fast like I usually do, I just went out and tried to stay with the pack in front. I stayed with them the whole race and finished in 5:01. I was happy with that considering the circumstances. Next week at Cache Box I want to just run the 1600m and my goal is to try to have a good race and qualify for BYU(4:49).

Sky View Invitational (1 Miles) 00:04:51, Place overall: 4, Place in age division: 4 | | Today we had Sky View Invitational. I got there at around 8:40 and I didn't run till probably around 10:00. I warmed up a little bit with Trey and James and then we raced the 1600m. My goal was to try and get 4:49 and qualify for BYU but it was SUPER windy and it made running from the 300m mark to the 400m mark really difficult. The first lap I just tucked in and stayed with the group, I was towards the back of the group when we finished the lap. The next two laps I tried to pass a lot of people when the wind was to my back and I did. The last lap I really caught up to the group in front and and finished 7 seconds behind first place with a 4:51 and got 4th place overall.
James, Trey, and I then went on a cooldown and then it was time to start the 800m. My goal was to qualify for BYU it and get 2:10. I know I can get that easy if I was fresh, but today my legs killed from running the 1600m and it was still really windy, so I really wasn't expecting to make it. Regardless, I tried my hardest to. First lap was 1:06 and second lap was 1:05, so I finished with 1:11 and got 6th overall.
Pretty pissed that it had to be crappy weather today, without the wind I would have qualified for BYU in both events. Atleast I PR'd in the mile, I guess. I think we are trying to get into another invitational next saturday so I might have one more shot at it.

| | Today we had a workout on the track. We started off with a mile warmup, then we headed outside onto the track. We started with an 800 in 2:20, then we did 8x400 alternating between 1:05 and 2:00 each time. On my fast one's I got 1:10, 1:11, 1:12, and 1:13. I was a little bit confused about the workout and I didn't know that we were on our last one, I could've ran that one faster. When we got done with the 400's we did a 1000m. After about the first 400m I was freaking tired. I finished that in 3:04. We then did a couple more laps on the track and then me and Spencer went and did a one mile cooldown.
We are going to the Orem Tiger Trials on Saturday so I still have one more chance to qualify to go to BYU.

Orem Tiger Trials (1 Miles) 00:04:49 | | Ran 4:49.7 in the 1600m and 2:09.95 in the 800m. Missed qualifying for BYU in the 1600m by .7 seconds and barely made it in the 800m by .05 seconds. Pretty windy.
