Adam's Running

Skipped B8 so I missed the run, but came back for strength training after school. lots of lunges and stuff with the weights. Afterwards I ran with Caleb and we just did Alpine run. On Alpine highway we ran into Cole Gray so he pulled over and we talked to him for like 20 minutes. Good stuff overall.

Progression run today. Its 7:30, 7:00, 6:30, 6:00, 5:40, 5:30, 5:20, 5:10 all on the track. Was feeling ok during the first 4 miles, then my stomach started to hurt. I tried to push through, and led for most of the 5:30 and 5:20, but as soon as we finished the 5:20 I had to stop. My stomach has been hurting ever since we finished like 4 hours ago which sucks. Afterwards we took an ice bath.

Up at a visit to Weber State, went for a trail run on upper bonneville shoreline with the team. We were going pretty quick, and I was feeling good until the last three miles my stomach started hurting, and I had to go to the bathroom. Last mile was rough but I got through it. I think I've had a stomach bug for the last couple days cuz my stomach has just been all over the place. Run was fun overall tho, lots of cool trails up there. Later went and had dinner at lucky slice (some of the best pizza I've ever had) then went and hung out at Braden's house. Fun stuff.

Finished up our visit with Weber this morning. It was a lot of fun and the coaches and team are all great. When we got home I went and took a nap cuz I was beat, then did the workout later by myself. Had my wonderful girlfriend Ali there to time me so that was nice since my watch died. Just did a warmup 400 in 67, then took a couple minutes and raced an all out 400. I ended up in 55.6 so I was very happy considering I was by myself and there was a nasty wind on the homestretch. I think in an actual race I could go 53 high-54 low right now. Took a couple more minutes of rest then did an 800 in 2:20ish.

Everyone else ran during lunch, so it was just Jonas and I running during track class. We did Alpine loop. I think since it was just me and him he was able to focus a little better, and he actually kept up just fine going around 7 minute pace. When we hit Alpine highway a construction machine drove up next to us and I just kind of started racing it. it was going top speed which was probably a little over 10 mph so for those 2.5ish miles I was going sub 6:00 pace. When we got back I did 6x100m strides, then went over to Will's house for a bit.

Did the same loop as last Saturday, that goes up by lambert then drops in from above sliding rock. We were going pretty fast for most of it, and it was just a swell time overall. Dustin ran with us which was fun.

Later I had a churchball game, only four guys showed up so we forfeited but they let us play for fun. Even tho we had four dudes we still won and I had like 25 points and a gnarly half court buzzer beater at halftime.
