Ran on the (very) hilly streets by the house. It was fun, I didn't have a lot of time, but was able to hold a pretty decent pace, especially considering the terrain.

Met with the BYU farm team, and did 6x800 meter grass repeats with them. I hit between 2:27 and 2:31 on all of them, felt tough, but not too much. We had a quick recovery of 90 seconds between each repeat. I really enjoyed running with other people, I'm going to try and run with them more often, it could be a really fun opportunity, seem like a good group of guys.

Chill morning run. Down the big hills, then back up the on the way back. It took a little longer than expected, cause I had to use the bathroom a couple times, but thats all good.

Ran down to Provo river trail and up the canyon, then came back. Solid run, pretty decent pace, and my legs were tired but not to flat or anything like that. I ran into Garret Marsing along the way, good guy

Really good workout on Kiwanis park today. 1 mile (5:20) followed by an 800 (2:27) another mile (5:24) and then an 800 (2:33) then a fartlek workout of 3:2:1. It was a great push and just a grind today, but I was glad to be with the FARM team.

Nice 3 mile tempo run with a couple of the guys. We averaged 6 minute pace, which was fantastic. Long tempo run coming up on Saturday, I'm excited for it.

Looooong run today. I drove down to outlet parking lot, and ran 10 miles up the canyon and up the road past vivan park, then turned around and did a nice tempo run back. The goal was to keep the pace under 6.10, and I averaged 6.07, so that was good. I was happy with how I was able to stay mentally focused and finish strong after a big hill with about 2.5 miles to go. I'll be on the edge of getting that sub 2.40 time, I'll just have to be really mentally disciplined, run a nice negative split, and know when to slow down and when to push it. I'm excited for the challenge.

Really good 60 minute progression run. Started out at 7.30 pace, and after 10 minutes we dropped it to 7 minute pace. From there we dropped the pace 15 seconds every 10 minutes, with the idea to cap out at 6 minute pace for the last 10 minutes. In reality we went a little faster than that for each interval and the overall run was at a 6.30 pace. Life is good right now, just need to keep working hard, and not be lazy. I don't know why that's been a temptation for me lately, but I've really just got to keep the axe to the grindstone.

Chill trail run. Didn't have a ton of time, but I started figuring out an awesome, long trail loop I could do some time

Great workout. 4x1600m repeats. I went 5.13, 5.18, 5.18, 5.19. I was really happy with the consitency of the effort, and it felt good to get some speed in. This was one of those workouts where I really did not want to do it beforehand, but as the workout progressed my mentality got better and better, and it just went really well.

Nice run up the canyon with the farm team boys, or at least some of them. We were cruising pretty good the whole time, definitely picked it up on the way back. average pace of 6:55

Good start to the week with an early morning 6 mile run. Hopefully I can keep going to be early and getting up early, it makes the day a lot smoother.

Really good track workout. Started with a 12 min. tempo run, on the track and then around the surrounding grass and stuff until we hit the time. After that we did 3x800m repeats, and I went 2:29, 2:30, 2:27, or something really close to that. Then we did a 400m finish, we weren't supposed to go faster than 65, but I ran a 59 and it was just fun to run fast with a group of people like that.

I'm just estimating the fast and slow mileage. We did and 5:5:3:2:1 fartlek workout, with the recovery being the time of the next repeat, if that makes sense. I think I did really well in the workout, for the two 5 minute repeats, the pace was at 5:30 or faster, then I was just ballin' out for the other repeats, it felt awesome. It feels so good to have some fast dudes to train with from the farm team.
