Out of difficulties grow miracles

Nice really easy workout today. It was 3 thousands today and i was supposed to hit 5:02, although i kept getting way faster at like 4:20. Really easy was even slower than our regular pace. So it was quite fun.

Easy grass run today felt great all the way through. Didnt go as fast as usual so that was really nice. Kids club was fun as always less coaches than usual for my group but there is usually so many so it was probably for the best

30/30 workout again, and i have to say it was way harder this time. Did it 30 times again and this time i felt like i earned it and did my best. cool down which was a mile was pretty hard my legs just didn't feel like movin.

AM really easy 1000s again this time though we did five of them felt good the entire time but a bit sore just because didnt run to much at scout camp.

Unfortunately wasnt able to go to afternoon run

4 miles grass run today felt really good until about the last mile or so and decided to run back with cameron and Preston. We gell behind enough that the other guys finiahed a full strider before us.

Kids club was fun today. Had more kids than usual and played more games.  

30/30 workout today with the mile warm and cool. hardest one i ve done and only got to 17, started out feeling good then towards 13 I was barely making it and 17 I just missed completely, wasnt sore just tired.

PM ran an easy 3 miler today just by myself 

AM 6 miles with a 2 mile tempo towards the end. Wasnt going to fast but was still pretty tired by the end of the tempo.

PM another easy 3 miles but was extremely hot today and was exhausted by the end. Weights after

The run today was just one word... hard. After our usual warm up stuff we ran the region course which was 3 miles. Then we went to the meat grinder hill which is a 1 mile hill. The first time up wasnt sure what to expect and it was really hard wasn't prepared mentally or physically. On the second time up it was way harder physically because my legs kept protesting and didnt want to move, but it was easier mentally and I was able to push through the pain in my legs and kept on moving. 

AM simple 1000 run today did six of the today and was a little worn out by the end of the workout but still fine. New pair of running shoes today and ive decided they're great.

Today was such a fun day, that is after the workout. Did the 30/30 workout today and did terrible, only got 17 again and that was way hard. Later it got a lot better at kids club. Today was race day and I decided to pace the races. ran in front of the whole group and pushed the leaders for the first three groups and by then I was exhausted so I ran in the back for the older boys. Paced some pretty good races by Rylee Holt, and also paced Gabe Holt. And have a coach Holt. So many holts.

AM ran my morning run a bit later than usual with jake and was quite a boring route it was basically 4 miles on just one road that we ran on the whole time but oh well.

PM started run at 3 over at coaches house and it just an easy 3 but blazing hot. Luckily afterwards could swim at coaches house which was a blast.(thanks coach)

AM hills today at hells hole and I have to say not very fun. We did timed hills today and it was 4 30 seconds and 4 1 minuters. We started with the one minutes and I think I did really well on those. I started at a slower pace then slowly but surely made my way to the front. On the 30s I wasnt doing as well, was still towards the front but I was tired out from the minutes, but still pushed up to where I needed to be.

PM afternoon run today was the basic three miles and it wasnt as hot as it usually is and it felt good. Weights after was ok and I think my arms will be a bit sore.

Somewhat of a hard run today. Today was 7 miles with a 2 1/2 mile tempo. The run itself wasnt too tiring but the tempo drained most of my energy. We started the tempo at about three miles and stayed a pretty consistant pace of 6:30 never went really any faster or slower so it was an ok run

AM didnt wake up on time for practice and realizing it was to late for practice by the time i woke up i decided just to run on my own. Ran 5 miles was going to run 6 but didnt have enough time to run 6.

Up at camp now and ran our first run in the high altitude it was just an easy 4 and felt pretty good.

 High Altitude Camp

AM ran 8 miles not really a hard run but not exactly easy though, it was our longest run up at camp and was pretty fast paced on the first half. Felt pretty good during the run but afterwards I felt terrible. I didn't even feel good enough to eat very much breakfast.

Ran an easy 3 miles and then after jumped into the lake which felt amazingly good.

High Altitude Camp

AM today was our hilly run, which basically meant big long giant hill. 5 miles total and on the way up it was extremely hard for me to stay up with all the big boys. The way back down was way better, I didnt go quite as fast as I could have and the entire time my body just wanted to fly down the hill but I held back and went down easy anyway.

PM 3 mile run on the most amazing trail run i have ever been on. We started out at about the top of the mountain where a great lookout was and ran down into a gorge thing. It was so much fun on the way down with rocks, steep hills, many sharp turns, and an amazing environment around us. Way back was a lot harder. On my way up me and a couple of other boys seperated and were a ways ahead of everyone and I had the opportunity to push one of the boys up that hill even though he wanted to stop so badly I didnt let him and it was a learning experience for both of us.
