Race: Pre-Region (3 Miles) 00:16:02, Place in age division: 26

AM- 3.04 morning run.

PM- Pre-Region race at Westlake high school. We got there and warmed up 1.44. We all raced together. It was late at night and I was a bit tired but I was hyped to race and determined to do well. It was a hard, tiring race but I was able to go pretty fast. My first mile was too fast with a 5:07, then I dropped down to a 5:31, and then I picked it up to a 5:21. I need to work on not going too fast that first mile and that will help me be better. Once we were on the track I started speeding up and got hyped enough to pass Tyler. He did a really good job and passed the finish line right after me. I got an official time of 16:02 and he got a 16:04. I was out of it after the race but the varsity was wall super happy and pumped about the race. My previous best 3-mile was a 17:06 at region last year so I PR'd by a ton and was super happy about that. It was a great race. We cooled 1.41 and the a few of the AF girls passed us so that was cool.

No Thursday morning run for me because I went to the Coldplay concert in Salt Lake Wednesday night, which was amazing. The afternoon workout was hard, because I was tired, and I went out to fast so I came back slow. I ran 8.58 miles and went over 60 minutes to 67:09. That's alright though, we all have a few off runs. I did four strides after.

Race: BYU Autumn Cross Country Classic (3 Miles) 00:16:29, Place overall: 24

Today was race day at BYU! We got there and jogged the course. The weather was nice for a lot of the morning but there was a freak rainstorm and it rained super hard for a minute. We warmed up, drained our legs, and then the race began! I was nervous before because I felt tired and a little tight, but I was able to race pretty well. It was a harder course than Pre-Region and there were hills, which was tough but we made it through. Tyler started out fast and eventually I got a head. On my third lap I was running down the hill from the baseball diamond and I fell. I got back up as quick as I could and tried to stay at a good pace. While we were nearing the track Riley passed me and was able to beat me but I took 2nd for PG and 24th overall. I got a shirt which was sweet, and so did Riley and Tyler. PG Varsity boys took 6th overall so good day for the team. Next stop Soldier Hollow!
