Kilometer Killer

AM over 1:21:02; 7:15 pace; 2, 1, 3, 2, 1, 2 min pickups- solid, morning long run with the bros down Red Cliffs Drive and on to the river trail. 

PM over 24:21; 7:01 pace

Really clutch day, running wise, with two pretty quick runs. Afternoon we took it down Red Cliffs Drive for an easy 25. On our way back, we witnessed an epic car accident! Some cars were waiting at the light on Red Cliffs and Mall Drive, when this white Honda came up to the light and smashed into the back of this truck, barely hitting the brakes. Everyone was okay, but we were all right there the moment it happened. The police had Carson and Logan give witness statements. Pretty beast day overall. 

AM over 14:05; 7:20 pace- pre weights DI loop

PM over 49:37; 7:32 pace

Another nice, chill run before our early workout tomorrow. Took it under the new underpass and up through middleton. I had my doubts, but Coach stuck with us today! (I'm just giving him a hard time. @Lil'D) No car accidents today.  

AM over 59:45; 7:15ish pace; track workout; 4x quicker striders

PM over 24:07; 7:30 pace

Sick morning workout under the lights! All at CV, 2x 1200 m w/ equal recovery, then 2 sets of 2x 400 m and 600 m w/equal recovery. We then did some verified striders that were only 80 m, but faster, at like 800 pace. Afternoon we took a chill 25 through Marlar's breeding grounds.

PM over 45:07; 7:02 pace

Good, quick day, especially our afternoon run. Took an adventurous route through all the sections of Green Springs and looped back to the High School. Good way to get ready for the SC invite tomorrow. 

AM over 24:36; 7:18 pace- usual morning route

PM over 29:55; 7:30ish pace; SC invite Day 1

Awesome day for me! Had a chill day knowing that I just needed to run the 400 m. I honestly had mixed emotions about what to expect from this race; it was after all my first high school track race. I was marked as about the 4th fastest in my heat with the top guy, my unknown cousin from Enterprise Chandler Staheli, being at about 52 seconds. When the gun sounded, I just ran and didn't hold anything back. I was in second going around the last turn and expecting to see someone come by on my left, but when there was no one, I just figured I'd go beat the guy in front of me. So I did. Won my heat with a 55.15 and missed the finals by 3 spots. Overall, I was very pleased with the results. 

SC Invite Day 2

Even better day than yesterday! Congrats to my boi Carson for the State Qual in the 3200 m. As for my events, I did better than I had anticipated. Took 3rd in the 800 m behind my other boi Logan, coming in with a major PR of 2:05:22. This race was a huge eye opener for me on what I'm capable of. it just gave me that much more confidence that I can reach my goal of State Qualifying. Sooo pumped for the rest of the season. Mitch, Dallen, Logan and I then ran the last event of the day, the 4x400 m. We did alright coming in a pretty distant 4th. We were in 3rd going after both mine and Mitch's legs, but, not to bag on Dallen, lost our medal spot during his leg. I'd say he just started it a bit too slow. That's alright though; he knows he's a distance beast. Overall, dope first meet.
