Wage War On Slow Running

3.08 Morning Run. After school and ACT prep Tyler and I ran to Dry Canyon. I've been on this team for two and a half years and even though I'd done this run like ten times I'd never made it all the way to Dry Canyon so it was good to finally go the entire way. 9.01 miles at 7:57 pace, which, considering the hills, is pretty solid. On the trail we met a snake named Randy.

2.62 morning run to Apple Grove and it was freezing cold. Still had ACT prep so no practice but I ran in the evening. I left my running shoes at the school so I had to run in some Nike Flyknits I've had for about a year. I went four miles out from my house to Lone Peak and made it to the start of the trail north of the school. During the four miles back I listened to some songs from Bastille's album Wild World, which is killer. I went 8.02 at 6:55 pace.

2.75 morning run. Went to state to watch everyone race. It was a blast!

40-minute run. We went to Molly's, which was a good time. Most of the guys stopped at coach's room but I went a little further to hit 40 minutes and I got 6.43 miles. 6:14 average pace. Then we did four strides to add another .51.

On Friday our run was supposed to be 40 minutes but Matt and I were sick of doing forty minutes so we did a speed workout. We did a mile warmup then 8 buddy 400's on the track. I forgot my watch so I didn't know my pace, but it was a good workout. We did about a mile cooldown after, then we listened to Riley's truck stereo and chilled for a while.
