am- we did the mile repeats today and I didnt think i was gonna do that great because saturday I banged up my knee pretty bad. But none the less, i decided to make the best of the workout.  So we started and i was supposed to get 5:43 pace per mile. My first was 5:39 and I was like "alright! lets do this workout like a boss!" Then i just got better and better for the next/last three. 5:38, 5:34, and finished with a 5:31. Coach was disappointed with the performance of others so I will remember that when I fill like giving up in workouts and races and I will remember that if we want to build something great @ pine view that its going to take all of us to do it! DI warn and cool down. Total--8.75 miles

pm- I went running around and brought Kaelie with me:) she is gonna be running with me this week and i will make sure of it! she needs to start running again so why not right now?! so we didnt get three miles in but we got the striders in so yeah. Total--3 miles

am- we did a 10 miler with 20 minutes of tempo AT to LT progression. it was actually really good! i felt a little negative at first but i thought if i want to perform well later i gotta work now. I think thats what my motivation is for everything. If i want a nike nationals title with our varsity team i got to work my butt off. Anyways, i finished the tempo with Cam and we were right behind Paul. that felt pretty good even thou he might have not had the best run i felt good:)

pm- we hiked Shinob Kibe as a family and i ran it. it was only a mile thou but we went to the park after and did games involving very mucho exercising so yeah!

am- today was 4 miles easy with 4x200 on the track.  I felt great this morning! i dont know whats up, i have felt great every single morning run we have had this week. prolly cause its not hot so i better start hydrating a ton. 

well i didnt run but my fam and i went on a 7 or more mile bike ride and for mutual we hiked the temple quarry trail so that was a good substitute for it:)

am- i didnt wake up on time for team practice so i got my litl' sister Karissa to come with me. so we ran the 2 miles of warm up and when i started the 6x400 on the track i was so tired i wasnt going to do the last 4 of them. Then when i said to her that we were just going to go home now, she said,"Dallen we are not going to leave until you finish your workout! OKAY?!?" haha ten points for Karissa for gettin me to do my workout! Total miles--5.25

I ran 3 miles around costco and few other places and then came home to get my dog to run the last 2 miles with me. he stopped once because he was being lazy and didnt want to run, but i pulled him up and continued our run without another stop.
