over 1:21:38; 7:01 pace; 3x 1, 1, 2 pickups Started at PV and crossed mall drive bridge, made our way through Washington Fields to where the new high school will be. Very muddy but very worth it. This was the longest run so far on my new garmin. I love running with my team and I know we've got unbelievable potential.

Over 59:54; 7:08 pace; tempo workout

Started at PV with 12 min. warm(had to do it alone on the track because my CCR ended after the team left) then did 20 min. of tempo on the track. Pace was supposed to be about 6:45, around 1:41 splits, but Dylan and I took it a bit quickly, running 6:18, 6:24 and 6:11. Cooled to time with the team, ran around vasa.

Started at PV and ran on my own across foremaster hill. Took it maybe a little too hard, judging by how I felt an hour after, but it was a good run with a quicker finish.

Suicidal Tendencies trail in Santa Clara with the team this morning. Also a late celebration for coach Roberts' b-bay. First time doing this trail and was honestly challenged a bit by it, but I pushed through the hills and made it through the long run. Overall, felt good. Pumped and hoping for a workout tomorrow.

Good workout with the bros. We all ran through a pretty chill workout together and worked on something specific with our form on each set. I also talked about my goals during school with coach Holt and it got me psyched to push myself in my first track season. Can't wait!

Nice, chill recovery run from two hard days. Took it down Telegraph St. and up through dogtown. I was a little sore from the weight yesterday morning, but not enough to bother me or get me worried about hindering a tempo tomorrow.

AM over 15:00; 7:45 pace- pre-weights run with Xander and Dallen

PM over 60:00; 7:20ish pace (had to split up the runs on my watch)

Sick 25 min tempo workout on the track with the beasts, Dylan and Grant, where we had some great splits: 6:49, 6:36, 6:35, and what would have been 6:25 had we had 90 or so more seconds to finish the last lap. Overall great workout that didn't leave me very wiped out. Perhaps Coach Holt will let me stick it out with the lead group next tempo.

One of the funner, but also more miserable runs I've been on with the team; it was raining and cold. Julien thought it would be fun to jump in a puddle with me right behind him. He completely drenched my croch area. He got coach too and he repayed Julien by putting him in the gutter. Overall fun run that took some mental toughness.

Happy B-day Logan. I did this run on my lonesome and I'm surprised I stuck it out as well as I did. This was definitely one of the fastest non-workout runs I've done. I felt good and thought I'd see what I could do. 

This was a strong week for me, but I'm still anxious to see my weekly total be in the upper 50's/ lower 60's.

over 1:25:34; 7:04 pace; 1min, 2min, 1min, 3min, 1min, 3min pickups w/ 3min recovery between reps

Started practice at 12:30 today because school got out early and we decided to just run right after school. This run took a lot out of me, as the river trail usually does (I have no idea why it does.) Had a little bit of new pain in the posterior part of my knee so I ought to ice and massage that. Thanks to Julien for holding me accountable for finishing strong. All the guys on this team truly have become my brothers and I know we're gonna do amazing things in the future.

PM over 46:08; 8:00 pace

Did Dino Tracks trail for the afternoon run. Cool trail that I realized I had done a long time ago as a kid! My hamstring gave me a little trouble, mostly in the morning, which made me slow down a bit and focus on my form. Coach gave me a link for tips to help with it, so I'll have to give it a look for sure.

over 58:37; 7:40ish pace; track workout

Usual Tuesday/Wednesday workout, with a slight difference. 6x 60 sec w/equal recovery, first 3 at tempo, second 3 at threshold; 1 lap recovery; 5x 60 sec w/equal recovery, all at CV; 1 lap recovery; 6x 60 sec w/equal recovery, first 3 at threshold, second 3 at tempo. 

Tempo dist.- 251 m.

Threshold dist.- 264 m.

CV(critical velocity) dist.- 276 m.

Physically, this was a pretty easy workout; Mentally, it was a struggle for the whole team. We had a hard time getting into a certain pace and hitting our ditsances. We also struggled with understanding that the outermore lanes were longer and that if the quicker guys would move to the outside, we could all finish the reps at about the same point. Our tempers were a little short, but I think we all still like each other.

Did the Foremaster ridge run and looped back River Rd.(I think that's the name.) This was a nice, hilly run to pick up the pace a bit from the past two days that felt a bit slow.

over 59:30; don't know the pace; tempo track workout

One of my best workouts yet! 28 min. tempo on the ringworm with the bros. Neither of the guys I usually do tempos with were there so I decided to kick it with Mikey. We killed every single 400 split at about 1:37 or a little under. Our 1600 splits were 6:28, 6:32, 6:20 and 6:19. Still a little confusion about the outer lanes so we'll probably ditch that strategy. Overall, this was one of those workouts that opened my eyes on what I'm capable of and that makes me hungry for progress in the future.

Another Saturday 60 min on my own with a quicker second half. Did a sandy desert run up above the freeway, out towards mill creek. 

Good week for me with a little more mileage than last week. Coach Holt said next week we're gonna see a bit of a drop in miles, so I'm gonna trust him on that.

Good run on the parkway route. Had a little hamstring discomfort at about 55:00, but pushed through and had a quality run. Got some good news from New Balance that they're gonna send me some trail testers! I'll definitely have to hit some trails around over the time I have them.
