Easy

2 mile warmup, we had 5x500 meter hill repeats. Some guys on the team were pushing it, and I didn't feel good. But afterwards coach told us it was supposed to be at 90 percent effort and after that I didn't feel as bad because I thought I had a "okay" workout. Barefoot cold down.  3 miles in the afternoon. 

4 easy by myself. Was feeling a bit under the weather. 

We had our Vo2 max test today. Warmup, strides, 15 minutes hard, cool down. Coming in today I just wanted to improve from last year. Spencer led the first mile and brought us through in about 4:57. After I took over and I felt good. I wanted to get 12 laps in but I came up short and my total distance was 4759.15m, a 222m improvement from last year. 3 miles in the afternoon. 

Did 10 this morning out in hurricane. Another 3 in the evening. 

We had 3x1 Mile repeats. Our pace was 5:41 and we hit 5:39, 5:43, and 5:41. It felt easy and we were super relaxed. We met at Coachs parents house for our afternoon run. Im not sure about our accurate mileage but we did around 3.13. 

Easy mileage with Albert. 

7 miles easy. 

8 miles total in the morning, 3 in the afternoon with Sage and Bryson.

We had a tempo this morning. Hit 5:34, 5:32, 5:22 and for our last 4 minutes our pace was about 5:10. Felt okay for this workout. But still managed to get a solid workout in. 3 miles later.

6.5 mile total out in Little Valley. 3 in the afternoon. 

7.5 miles total. 2.5 mile warmup, we had 3x1 Mile repeats, our given pace was 5:33 and I averaged like 5:28 but Spencer, Bryson and I were relaxed so we didn't stress about the times. Cool down. 

We did 12 miles total with the last two miles we progressed. So we ran the first 9 miles around 7:30 and we started our 2 mile push. Hit 5:27 and 5:16 I felt relaxed the whole time so that was a positive. We had like a mile cool down. 

Warmup, we had a fartlek workout in about 40 minutes we got a total distance of 5.5 miles, cool down to get mileage.

6 miles easy, and 8x100 strides. 

We had a 30 minute tempo and we had to pick it up every 5 minutes. We did a 4 mile warmup and ran our tempo back and we got about 5 miles total plus the cool down. First day of running camp up in Eagle Point, we did 3 miles. 

8 miles east around Puffer Lake, got in the lake after. My body needed an ice bath. 3 miles in the afternoon.

7 miles total in the morning, we had our race up Delano and I was feeling good compared to previous years. Spencer and I kind of took a longer path so Bryson managed to pull out the win. Had our relay in the afternoon, our relay consisted of 4x400s and there were 3 on each team. 

6 miles, we were pushing it and all the guys felt good especially after running Delano.
