Adam's Running

5x600m hills today. Felt really good and hit much faster times then I ever have before. Times were 1:59, 1:58, 1:54, 1:55, 1:57. Stayed with Zack on all of them until the last one where he ran 1:52! Our entire top 6 was all averaging around 2:00 or better on all of these, which has never happened before. I don't want to get too excited this early, but I think this could be a very very good team.

Ran down to Art Dye and played a couple solid games of handball, then ran back the long way. Did 6x100m strides when we got back.

6x800 on the grass field by the seminary building. Weather was a cool 69 degrees today which made for some fast times. We hit 2:28, 2:25, 2:23, 2:23, 2:20, 2:16. Felt really good today and everybody ran really well. Lil Warner came today and was able to keep up on all of them. The course turned out to be .015ish short so they were all about 1-2ish seconds fast, but still a great workout. Afterwards we hit up our usual ice bath spot at the mouth of the canyon. Dom and Emily came to the workout today. Dom struggled, but Emily was beating all the girls but Lauren and Amanda lol.

Good loop through Alpine. Once we hit Alpine highway we were going a decent pace, like 6:10ish. Word on the street is that Mckay Johns got a stress fracture, and if it is true grass relays just got very interesting. Without Mckay in the running for AF I think we may just have a shot at winning!

Easy miles down to AF, then one lap of the course. As Craik would say, it's GDFR tomorrow.

Grass Relays today! The day started off well for us with Craik winning the frosh soph race in an epic showdown with Bryson King, that came down to the last 50. We chilled until the Varsity race started, then I warmed up. Zack ran first and did decent. I think it would have been better to run me first and Zack last because it would suit our styles better, cuz Zack doesn't like going out fast and they went out very fast. He ended up in 10:31. Next was Justin who ran 10:35 and caught a few teams. Seth ran 10:38, and Jamison ran 10:28. Jamison got me into third place, and I was about 18ish seconds behind Will Handley from Timpanogos, and about 10 seconds ahead of Spencer Ford from Desert Hills. I basically ran in no mans land the entire time, lapping the occasional team, but really just grinding it out by myself. Will put a bigger gap on me, but I ended up widening our gap on Desert Hills, so that was good. It was pretty much just really hot and lonely, and I wish I had gone first, cuz I think I could have been around 10:10. I had no idea what time I ran, but I didn't get an award so I thought I was over 10:30, but then when results were posted it said I was 14th in 10:22! What the cuss Timo! Haha, anyways we set our new team time record by 2 seconds and ran the 8th fastest time ever, beating some very good Desrt Hills and Lehi teams in the process.

Shoutout to Connor Baller because he got cussed out of a plaque as well after running an excellent time of 10:18.
