Last day at BYU. We went back to the same park we were at on the first day and raced the same 2 mile course. We were all pretty tired and only went a little faster than we did on the threshold run but it still felt good.

Day 3 of the BYU camp. We woke up early again and went for a 3 mile run on the shoreline trail. Later we ran 4.5 more miles up to Stewart falls. Both were moderately easy.

Tonight Brayden and I did 2.5 more around campus to get more miles.

Day 2 of the BYU camp. We woke up early and did a fartlek workout at another park. The fartlek went 8,5,3,2,1 hard then easy for each. We did the hard sets at just under 5:00 pace. The full thing including warm ups and cool downs was 7.5.

Later in the day we went for an easy 4 miles on the Provo river trail. (7:00 avg.)

Today Brayden and I left for the BYU XC camp. We left early and didn't have time for a run. Once we got there, we did a really short warm up and cool down and then a 2 mile threshold run at a park. It felt good but Ragnar definitely wiped me out.

At about 1 a.m. tonight I had my second leg of the Ragnar. It was two miles downhill. It got kind of tough trying to see where my feet were landing and ahead of me at the same time but I ran it in 9:30 so I was happy.

Then this morning at about 7 I had my last leg of 9 miles I was tired and it didn't go as planned (6:59 pace) but we ended up placing 5th overall and taking first in the high school division

Today was the start of the Ragnar relay. I was runner 3. My first leg was 7 miles through cache valley. (5:57 average)

Brayden and I stayed over at Ethan Field's house last night and barely got any sleep so it's going to be a wild weekend.

We had a team practice today on some trails behind Rainbow Gardens. Talon and I went about 5 but then we got lost and had to hike\climb our way up a mountain to get back.

Later this afternoon I did another 4 easy miles before Ragnar tomorrow.

I slept in today so I had to do my first run in the heat. I just did 3 miles on the trails around the lake and through town with one of my younger brothers. Then later tonight I did 4 more through some crazy wind.

Today I biked over to the old trappers loop road and did a 3 mile run up to the top and back. It was pretty steep and slow but I need the hills. Later tonight I went on a 5 miler around town. It felt good but I was sore. (6:07 average)

We had practice as a team this morning. We met and did a stair workout in the stadium. It was kind of tough cause I haven't really done any hills this summer but my time for me number 2 on the all time list next to none other than the Talon Hull. After the stairs we went on a 30 minute trail run. It was good hill training.

2 miles this morning. I usually never go for runs that short unless it's a tempo but I knew I was going to do a long run later so I just went short.

I called Brayden up and we drove up Monte cristo to 7,000 feet and did a longer run on the dirt road out to hardware ranch. We ended up going about 8 miles (6:54 avg) It felt great and we went faster than we expected, especially cause it's at good altitude and I had a big mileage week for just getting back from a break.

So this was weird.

I got up and did an easy 4 miles then went to the CBC late tonight both Brayden. We got to the race and did a 2 mile warm up with all the guys there then had an awesome race under the lights. I don't know my time cause my watch said 17:23 and Brayden's said he did it in like 6:46 or something, but he never passed me so we have no idea what to believe. Either way, it was a fun race.

Team practice today. We met at make-out point and ran the trails to the base of Ben Lomond. I was pretty much alone for most of it. I ended up doing a 10k of total distance. I don't know the pace cause my watch broke but probably about 6:30, rough guess.

I went for another 4 miles later tonight around town.

Definitely not supposed to just do 4.5 again.

I woke up early and met some of the team at the top of 500 and we ran 4.5 on the trails by Ben Lomond. I was going to go for more after work but I didn't. I don't really know why not. I should probably get better at just going out and getting my runs in. I was hoping for a 50 mile week but I don't know if that'll happen anymore. Irritating...

So this was not really planned... I was hoping for a little bigger day but I slept way in and didn't want to go out when it was hot so I waited until after work but I ran out of daylight and only had time for 4.5

Higher mileage day but it felt great. We had a team practice this morning on the Ogden parkway trail. I ended up going 7 (6:11 avg.)

I did another 4 miles tonight to the post office with the dog and Dan on his bike. (6 min pace)

relaxed 6 miler today around town. (6:45) It felt really good. I think my small day yesterday helped me out a bit. I'm getting back into it.

5 miles today. I've been a little sore and stuff due to the break I took so I just did less mileage today. I just ran to the park on the trails around pineview, played some tennis and ran back.

Woke up early today and met at north arm trailhead for a team practice. I ran 10k with Brayden for most of the way. It was a kind of tough run. I'm still stiff.

Later tonight after work I went out and did an easy 3 miles in the dark.

7.5 miles split between two runs today. After lunch I drove up to the top of monte cristo with my dad and Dan and did 4 miles at almost 9,000 feet. (6:45) Later in the evening I dropped my cousin off at soccer tryouts at Weber state and ran 3.5 miles up waterfall canyon and back. I also had the pleasure of seeing Brayden's mother on the way up

6 super slow miles to get back into it (7:30) I took the trails around pineview and then to the post office and back home. I'm super stiff. Hopefully I get back into the grind fast
