Train insane or remain the same

Shout out to my mom cuz its mothers day and her birthday. She is the bomb 

So kinda like zach my legs felt a little sluggish today. I did a pretty good workout on saturday and then doing nothing but sitting on sunday made them sore. Easy 8 and then ice bath after. I have some 200's tomorrow and then easy the rest of the week. I'm not super hyped for state yet, but that may be good cuz im not stressing about it. I know im in good shape and I can go run awesome. But trust me i'll be pumped before I run.   

Me, Sean, Ryan, and Thomas drove over to AF high school where jv region was taking place. We ran 4 miles before the workout. We went to this baseball park and climbed a hill and ended up on a path behind Lone Peak high, kinda where the DomiNate 5k was. It was sick. Then we did 3 sets of 4x200's at mile pace with 90 seconds rest inbetween. With a lap of recovery and 3 minutes rest in between sets. We went faster than mile pace, most of them from 31-32. I felt fine, the legs felt nice and powerful so good things are to come.

Shout out to all the kids who killed it at JV region today such as Collin for winning the 1600 and sir Matthew for almost clearing 5 feet in the high jump while wearing cargo shorts lol.  

Shout out to Conner Mantz for signing to BYU! He is gonna kill it! Now he just needs to tell Eyestone to recruit me and then there will be 3 super fast guys all with the same name. 

5 miles easy at 7:08 pace. Then I tried on sean's spikes and they felt good so i'll wear those in the mile and collins in the 2mile cuz idk where mine are. Low miles felt nice. 

2.5 miles then a little on the grass barefoot cuz our track is getting resurfaced. Then 1 mile cool down. TOMORROW IS STATE!! The mile is tomorrow. I've been waiting for this day for a long time, gonna go kill it! 

State 5A 1600 meters. It was mediocre. I ran my slowest time since indoor. It was really cold and I just was flat and didn't have energy in my legs. I was ranked 11th and finished 19th. But I'm looking forward to the 3200 tomorrow and gonna run better in that. 

Shout out to Brent Matheson and Payton Riggs for killing high jump. Shout out to Buttscratch cuz we got to skype him today. 

Day 2 of state. I got a little warm up in. My legs felt better and the race was better than yesterday. I was 5 seconds off my pr at altitude so not the best race. I just wasn't in it mentally. Something has just been off since BYU. I spent a lot of time and energy trying to get to state in the mile and 2 mile and so after I got it, I just didn't have the same want or drive. After I ran 4.5 with Garek, Bill, and Sarah and it was quite a nice time. Then I just hung and watched races the rest of the day. Shout out to Brinn, Ryan, Ginger, Amber, Dylan, and boys 4x4 for some awesome performances. From other teams Nashby, Cheiner, Emily Ellis, Haden Penrod, Peyton, Bo, really the whole 4A boys 800 was sick. Conner Mantz had the dopest kick I've ever seen! It was so sick to watch. Conner if you read this just know I was flipping out and crying and cheering and going nuts because you're so cool. 

Shout out to all my friends from the blog because we all killed it this year! #fastrunningblogordie! 

Ok time for a end of season review! Junior Track season: I didn't finish it off the way I wanted but it was still an incredible season to say the least. In the 2 mile I cut off 33 seconds if you count my Arcadia time. And in the mile I cut off 17 seconds (and I cut off 16 the year before) so I was able to improve a lot, and without the best coach in the business Coach Jamie, my supportive parents, my team mates that push me everyday, and the man upstairs, I would not have been able to so thank you so much! I got my goals of state which is the best feeling ever. I am so excited for cross country again and senior year and all the great things to come.
