My name is Carson Horspool and I like to party. I'm a Senior at Pine View High School in St. George Utah. Captain of the Cross Country team. I’m 18 and a good kid and have a great life because I make good choices.. most of the time. Love competing and Track and Cross country are perfect examples of competition.

​About 60-70 minutes total. Watch died :(

Also ran the 1600 today but posted it on tomorrow.

​Wowsers. The wind blowwwwed. Was ready to throw down. Felt so freaking good. I was gonna go sub 9:35. 3rd or 4th lap in I literally tore a muscle in my upper right back. Like I felt it rip. Tried to shake it out and it went numb I think from the adrenaline. The pain hit hard on lap 7 and I just kept truckin along. Was within range to the leaders most of the race but the wind was killer and I was dying, so I never caught up. Last lap some dude tried to catch me and I was mad so I beat him by .05 seconds for a solid 4th place of 9:53.. It's okay tho. My back hurt so bad afterward that I barely made it back to our team spot to get someone to help me. Could hardly breathe and I couldn't move. Laid down most of the bus ride home and it felt a little better when I got home. Gonna go see a chiropractor in the next few days and get it checked out. I blame the guys team for bullying me and making me stressed to the point that my muscles were so tense that they decided to kill themselves. Thanks.
