Race day! 

March madness half marathon, it was wet and cold at the beginning of the race, but warm enough that I felt comfortable running it with a long sleeve tech shirt and my american flag short shorts. My plan for the race was to take it out at about 6:15 pace, and drop throughout the race. That sorta happened. It was a weird race because I had to accept that I'm not in the best shape that I have been, and that running and racing isn't my number 1 priority right now, the MCAT and med school is. That was a strange and tough realization, and maybe not the best time to have that right in the middle of a race. Whatever. I ran pretty well, 6:10 average pace, finished top 10 (7th or 8th), passed someone right at the end so I could look super cool for Kelsey, and got a sweet looking dad hat for a top 25 finish. 

Overall good race, loved the experience, and I just love racing and pushing myself.

Two mile run with Cousin Jake, it was great, let him try a pair of my shoes, and we just enjoyed a chill recovery run. Not sure exactly what's next, it might be the family 5k, I know that doesn't sound to intense, but I want to dominate!!!

Really fun trail run with my man Josh Thatcher! Ran along the bonneville shoreline trail, then up slate canyon a little bit. It was a gorgeous run, and we had some great converstations. Josh is a good man

Crazy day with school, including a biochem test, yay! Fortunately one of my classes was my exercise physiology lab, and we did a couple of VO2 max test, which resulted in running 2.5 miles. One test estimated my max at 55, the other at about 65 mm/kg/ml. The truth is probably closer to 65, because that one actually used my heart rate, the other one doesn't at all.

No running today, but a great day nonetheless. When skiing all morning and afternoon, and then played pickleball for an hour or so after dinner. Tons of fun, and I'm sure I'll be a little fatigued tomorrow, but I did not take it easy skiing or in pickleball haha

Did the cosman test today with Jake and Sam. It was great, really fun to have a good push. I made it about 1495m. We set a goal to come back on the reading day and do it again!

Nice recovery run with cousin Jake. Boochy tried to hang with us for a mile, then had to turn around.

I can't remember how far I ran, haha, I obviously waited too long to write this... I did have a ton of fun at the quarry with Garret Marsing tonight though. We did a bunch of rock clilmbing and some bouldering, and my forearms were maxed out!

Great trail runner on the shoreline trail with Sam. We just set out to run for an hour, no specific distance.

Super fun run with Rex (Josh Thatcher) today along the boneville trail. Some good uphill running going out, and that of course led to some good downhill running coming back. First time running with my shirt off in a while, that was extra fun! Josh is a good man!

Good run, goal was to do the whole thing in less than 35 minutes, and I did it. I think that's a good way to keep my fitness high and not take too much time running as well.

6x400m repeats (70, 67, 69, 68, 68, 66)

Happy with those times, felt like a good push, it was really good to get some speed work in. More speed work to come! Hopefully longer and faster, but we'll see what I do, it all depends on time.
