We did Hogs today. It went well and the weather was super nice going up. Once we started going down Lil' Warner appeared, which took me by surprise but was nice because I had someone to run with.

Today we had an hour long distance run as usual. We made a big loop down to Discovery Park and back. AF was there when we got to the park so we stopped and talked to them for a while. We are starting early morning weights on Wednesday, so that should be lots fun!

Today we had 3x1 mile repeats over on the seminary field. I like this workout because you can just kind of settle in and go with the flow. Lil' Warner and I hit 5:10, 5:09, 5:05.

Later did 3.5 by myself. The moon was doing this funky thing with the clouds that created a full circle rainbow around it. It was most excellent.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1 fartlek on the canal. Felt good while I was running fast, but when we were running inbetween fast parts my stomach felt like crap. We did the 1 minute interval FAST.

Ran up to Alpine and did aviary backwards, then headed up to the mouth of the canyon and back to the school. All the underclassmen disappeared early in the run, so it was just Jamison and I for the last six or so miles. When we got back we did some strides on the practice field.

Slept through practice, so I did my long run later with my dad on the bike. We drove down to Provo to do it on the Provo river trail for a little change of scenery. I started and felt REALLY good, so I decided to turn into a progression run. Mile splits were:

6:52

6:24

6:18

6:14

6:12

6:05

6:02

5:54

5:50

5:44

5:17

Overall an awesome run, and gave me confidence for these next couple races. I felt very controlled throughout the whole run, and it was fun to run fast.

6x800 today. Kind of miserable because of the wind, but cold is to be expected at this time of year. Times were 2:27, 2:26, 2:24, 2:27, 2:25, 2:24. Good stuff from Zack and Jamison today.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1 fartlek on the canal. It was pretty dang cold, but the the snow hadn't been bad enough to stick to the canal really so we were able to proceed as normal. We went farther than we ever have going west, and put in a really long cool down. Overall solid stuff.

Awesome race today. We got a good warmup then went and got on the line for introductions and all that. The gun went off and I got out good. It was really crowded, but I just got on the outside and followed the Timpanogos guys as we weaved our way through. I passed through the mile in 4:51, then filed in with a group of three Timpanogos, Colton Rimman, and some other out of state guys who I stayed with for the rest of the race. I passed through the two mile mark in 10:00 and just hung on to the pack until 400 to go. I tried to kick at the end but got passed by a couple dudes. I got 15:40 which I was happy about, and I beat Lil Warner which is always good. The team did awesome, and our top five averaged a 16:00. We ended up getting eighth place!!

Good run on Bonneville Shoreline. Lil' Warner has been very philosophical lately, and I don't really like it.

The original workout today was 6x800, but we convinced Ryan to let us do 6x600 meter hills on the hill over by Cedar Ridge. I have never felt this good doing hills, and had a new personal best average for this workout. Times were 2:02, 2:03, 2:00, 2:01, 1:59, 1:57.

Met Jamison at Legacy and did extended mountain run. The trail was covered in a thin layer of packed snow which made for a good time. Drove to the school afterwards and did weights.

Went and worked at the Thankful13 half marathon at an aid station for four hours this morning. My cousin Ashton got fourth which was cool. After the race was over we did a 5, 4, 3, 2 fartlek on the race course.

Ryan wanted us doing a run with some good hills in it, so we ran up to the top of zig zack cave then went back through lambert. 1000 feet gain in the first three miles which was good.
