"Train insane or remain the same."

Just an easy distance run today, since we're down in Cali I did it on the beach so my calves are definitely feelin it. In all honesty I'm still a bit sore from camp so we'll see how next week goes. Also just in case anyone is wondering the beach is fantastic as always and shoutout to me for finding a super cool shell and boogie boarding like a pro (compared to most Utahn's) Basically I think my chosen career path is going to be becoming a beach bum...

So the team did the dreammaker today but my attempt to recreate it was a huge failure. After running up and down some ridiculous hills and almost getting hit by some outrageously horrible drivers with pretty awesome cars I gave up and headed back to the beach. Then I did 4×800 at 5k pace, my watch had a few glitches so I didn't get the first 800 but the last three were 3:20, 3:13, 3:07. So not really that great of a workout but I wasn't feeling super good anyways so I guess that's ok. On a better note I definitely paddleboarded on the ocean today so shout out to me! #onemoredayinparadise

I know I know...I'm supposed to do five but I didn't and that's bad and I know I'm gonna make it up. Don't even worry. I just had to spend more time in the ocean since I'm now on the way home which is basically a strategy. So it's ok. I really needed one more good day on the beach.

We did 10×60sec pick ups with 90sec rest at 5k pace. I didn't have a watch on me so I just paced off Alexis-my goal was to be able to stick with her which I did so I was definitely happy with that. My calves are ultra sore from running on the beach the past few days so be prepared for them to soon be super buff. Then we did a nice ice bath at the spring and played some ping pong at Ryan's house (shout out to Connor and Brad and Collin for beating me-I'll get those bracelets done) and then a game of bball (Me Brad and Ryan beat Connor and Strrt so #champs) Basically you can call me the next Michael Jordan

We did a Team Race today over at Highland Glenn park behind Lone Peak. I made a goal to stick with Alexis and Butters, for the first mile I stayed with Alexis and we did around a 6:18 which was too fast, I don't know the other two splits but we definitely slowed down, Butters and I stayed together for the whole race, I finished 4th out of the girls and I felt really strong and focused, for sure a great way to start out the season!

Also shout out to Strrt because he's leaving on his mission today!

Easy distance today at medium mileage. I grass ran at the cemetery with Megan today which felt good on the IT Band which was a bit sore. Afterwards I hit up the SOLW with Bridge Jadon and Amelia #nervedamage and then went on a pretty sick hike. I'm thinking of bumping up the mileage next week which would put me at 5-5.5-6 #halfmilemore

Today we did 3×3 90sec pickups/sprints up airport drive. I made a goal to stay up with Alexis and I did so I'm really happy about that. I felt really strong the whole time and I was definitely there mentally so that's good. I'm getting super stoked for Sugarhouse and some higher mileage!

Just did 3.5 Today because I'm heading up the canyon to go backpacking!!!! Its gonna be a party I'm super stoked!

No run today seeing as I hiked Timp but that's allright I'm calling it my cross training day.

Pre meet- 3 strideouts on the grass, an 800 at goal pace, and some practice starts. Our 800 was at 6:35 pace so right on. I'm waiting till next week to bump up the mileage but no worries it's gonna happen!

I felt good during the race, first mile was around a 6:20 so we're gonna need to slow that down cuz average pace for the race was a 7:05, anyways we did pretty good pack running but we for sure still have some kinks to work out. I felt really good physically and mentally so that's sick. I'm excited to see how much we improve throughout the season! Its gonna be a good one!

Ok I have a confession to make...I definitely warmed up on the turf barefoot and got some narly blisters on the bottom of my feet so then I hopped on the bikes. No need to make fun of me, trust me, I already know.

We had a dual meet with Westlake but we don't actually have results yet so I'll update the time once I know. We treated this as a workout not an actual race so more like a tempo run. Jamie wanted us to stay together as a pack for the first mile which we did (6:30 pace) then we all kind of split off. About the last 800m a killer wind picked up so I just tried to draft as much as I could and push through, it was a good workout/prep for Grass Relays on Saturday so that's exciting!

Also un-shoutout to @teampre because they dunked me in the SOLW 3 TIMES! #savages and I still gave them hot chocolate so I guess you could say I'm a real friend. But seriously, I'm gonna need some revenge.

We did a speed workout today- 4 800s on the overpass and 2 800s on the track- my splits were 3:16 3:05 3:12 3:06 3:12 2:59 so more or less consistent. It was rainy so a bit cold at the the beginning but fairly refreshing by the end. I felt like it was a good workout we worked really well together as a pack and held our pace so that's definitely good.

Easy high mileage today-in case you didn't notice that means I bumped up my mileage so feel free to congratulate me ;) We ran over to the cemetery and did some barefoot on the grass which felt fantastic.

Pre meet today cuz we have grass relays tomorrow! I haven't had any hay bales to practice jumping over so hopefully I still have my mad ninja skills...

Grass Relays today, I was feeling really good even though it was super hot outside. Our order for the relay was Guppy, Me, Emily, Butters, Alexis. During my leg I felt pretty strong. I just focused on the team ahead of me and tried to slowly work my way up. It was hard to pace myself without anyone else around but I feel like I did ok with that. I passed a couple of people but with about a mile to go I started to kinda fall off pace. I think I just kinda zoned out so it would've been good to throw in a couple surges there. With about 800m to go I got back into it and picked up the pace. I didn't start my kick as soon as I should've though, that last set of hay bales kinda threw me off. I did beat this girl who tried to pass me at the end though so that was sick. Overall our team ran a 66:10 and took 6th out of all the teams there.

Just some easy low mileage so I hit up the grass at the cemetery. It was really hot and I was pretty tired. On a side note Connor compared me to a dog who supposedly has more mileage than me, but I just checked out Moxie's blog and I had higher mileage last week by like 2 miles so take that Connor!
