So today we ran the dream mile and a half. This was like my 6th time doing it, something like that. It is flat for like 400 meters and then we go over the overpass, a small ish hill, and the middle of the overpass is .5. Then we have a gradual downhill. Once you hit this 4 way stop, it starts to incline. It levels out a lil by the junior high, this is about 1.2-3 and then you hit airport hill and its very large. You climb airport and then have 100 meters to the finish. My pr is 8:24. I got 8:43 which i think is good for only having a few days of running under my belt so far this season. I started out pretty good going up the overpass, going down the other side moved into second. Felt strong, I just couldn't kick it into the next gear to get around sub 8:30's. Gapped Austin who was behind me by the jr high, cuz the hill is my strong suit. Over all good performance. Had a snack at thom's house and then headed back. 

Shout out to Sir Matthew Todd. He is going into the MTC on wednesday and Im gonna miss him. We have had some sick adventures this past year I've became really good friends with him. He came today for the first time this summer, cuz he was on vacation at Yosemite. He hadn't had a real run in over a month and ran the dream mile and a half today and got right around 9 minutes so great job to him! Matt you kill it and I am gonna miss you and yur fire blog/twitter/insta. 

Shout out to Preston the babe slayer Warbeast cuz its his birthday today. Ol Pdawg i've only met you like once, but you are a chill dude and have killer blog.
