Longest runnnnnnn. The wind was strong so it was freezing on the way out, but we had pickups plus wind on the way back, and we were cruuuuuising. Super fun and I felt surprisingly good the whole time.

Nice trail run with some dope dino tracks. That's about it.

Tempo Threshold Critical Velocity whatever workout. We tried some weird strategy where we would all go in different lanes to make up for distance, and it was just confusing so I gave up. I'd rather get used to running in lane 1 then figure out distances for lane 8

Nice hilly run up Foremaster and back down the other side but we went towards the hospital and ran through town. Led the whole time going about 7:10 pace.

Tempo!! Finally got to go quick because Trevor came to help at practice today and run up in the front with me. I ended up catching up and lapping the rest of the guys, and they invited me to run with them but go to lane 8 so that I could keep my pace, and I turned them down. At first I kinda felt bad but I was just doin my thing and so in the zone I didn't want to have to change everything. I hope it's like that in the races -- me in the front not having to base my speed off of someone else.

Nice run all by my lonesome up turtle road. Stopped halfway through to admire the desert wildlife. Fast finish on the way back. I hope my wife will be as hot as Southern Utah, but that probably won't happen because it is 9.8/10
