Train insane or remain the same

2.25 mile warm up and then 6x800 at goal two mile pace for state (2:20) with 2:30 rest in between.  All the other guys had just distance but they switched off pacing me. My times were 2:22

2:21 

2:24 Thom did a not so swell job of pacing this one, partially my fault for not speeding up

2:20 

2:20 

2:16 to make up for lost time. Cooled down a little farther than planned. 

This workout was tough but I believe I handled it well. I got a new 5k record on my watch 14:07 so that's pretty sick. We'll see how long into my college career it takes to run that all the way thru. They dont run 5ks tho so idk. Region is gonna be fun cuz I'm just running the 800 to see what I can get that down to, hopefully a 2 flat, then I'm ready to kill it at state. Shout out to my monthly views, probs cuz the shout out conner gave me    

9 mile distance run by the Murdock canal trail, all by myself cuz erybody else had pre meet. Good luck to everybody racing at region tomorrow and Thursday. Leave everything on the track, no regrets.

Shout out to the waitress at Denny's for hooking us up with hecka pancakes last Friday, those things work magic #state #4secondpr

Ran 3 miles on the track and then did pre meet. I had 2 200's and did them both in 31. I race the 800 tomorrow, lehi has 5 guys in the fastest heat so it'll be sick. My goal is 2 flat. If I'm up towards the front I'll go for 4th place and state. After I finished till 8.

Some of the team pre guys ran in the 2 mile today and some of the highlights were D'brickasean qualifying for state with a 9:44 and second place finish! Now lehi has 3 guys in the 2 mile so props to us and coach jamie. Chicken nugget got a 12 second pr with a 10:48 and still had a monster kick

So in the 800 today at region I got 7th place overall and 2:04.00 I shoulda freaking pushed it harder so I could say my pr is 2:03.99 but whatevs it was a small pr. First lap was slow but I pushed the last lap a lot harder than I normally do so that was good. It was tough tho, the 800 is a really fast race and it have to keep up with the guys that have a lot faster sprint than me. It's a lot different than the two mile. Overall it was a decent speed workout and stuff. Finished up some miles, not as much as I had for the day but the weather was miserable so I just called it a day.

Ready to go kill state and run the fastest I ever have. It wont be like the 800.

Played basketball with brady for a lil while during lunch. We had an epic game of 21. Warmed up a mile and then a distance run to the gazebo. Average pace 7:06. It was a good shake out run from yesterday. Sick speed workout tomorrow. The spring of living waters is still off. smh. 

Turns out a got a medal from Arcadia for getting 5th in my heat of the two mile. Jamie got it in the mail and I freaked out when she gave it to me. 

2 mile warm up and then a speed workout. 5x400's at goal mile pace (65-66) then walk/jog 100 meters (we just went and all out 100 meters. I did it with Thom while sean and ryan did the 6x800 workout i did earlier in the week. It was slightly difficult jumping right into that fast pace so first one was 67. Then the next one I was leading it and thom wouldn't get off my back even tho I knew we were going way too fast, ended up being a 63. I kinda pulled a cristian soratos. The rest were 65, 65, 63. A mix of feeling a little tired and the pace being as fast as it has been all year made the workout tough. The sprint opened up the stride and felt really good.  

Shout out to Matthew Maton for running 3:59.38 in the mile at the oregon twilight meet or something. It is the 3rd fastest prep time ever and only the sixth time ever someone has broken 4 in high school! I bet that grant fisher will also break 4 and it will be the first year ever that multiple guys do it. Maybe even austin tamagno, john dressel, and my boy conner mantz do it too! What if 5 guys did it, dang that would be insane.  

Shout out to Paul Ryan cuz he's got range for days. Go check out his blog. 

6 DAYS TILL STATE!!!

Shout out to Sarah cuz it was her birthday yesterday!
