We went to lake Powell and there was literally no road by where we were so we ran in the sand and on the rock. It was the hardest run of my life, but it was pretty fun. We ran up a lot of  deep Sandhills and it was very hard. 35 minutes total and 3.4 miles

We moved the houseboat to a better spot and there was a road by  we moved the houseboat to a better spot and there was a road by it it made out of sand.  So that made for a much better run than  yesterday. Me Ellie Addi Maycee and my Dad all ran together. It was hard and sandy, but pretty good. It wasn't too hot, because it was overcast, so that was good. I had a real good time at lake Powell except the fact that my arms are sooooo sore from kayaking so much, but it was so worth it :) 40 minutes/4 miles

Did our warm ups and core stuff and then we went on the absolute scariest run of my whole life. We did a 20 minute warm and then we did a 25 minute tempo on the dirt mile. It was lightning and thundering really a lot and one time I sware the lighting was surrounding us and the thunder was really loud, and I thought we were dead!

Besides the Lightning, our run was real good! We got 8 miles/65 minutes. Me, Ry, Jace, and Addi were our pack today! We stayed really grouped the whole time. We started at about a 7:30 pace and worked down. Me and Jace did the whole 25 and it was really beast! I felt so good once I got over the fact that we weren't really gonna die. Then we cooled to time

45 minutes in the morn with the ladies and roberts. It was really good! We ran to lower grapevine. It felt way good. And I learned that I can ponytail and braid my hair while running, so that's a great accomplishment. 

Currently I am on a bus going to a conference. There is like 12 people.

Good to be back at practice. Today we met at pine view park and ran. I ran 40 minutes with the ladies. Most of the time it was me, Alli, Ry and Maycee and a few others who flipped earlier. It was pretty fun! Then we did striders. And since yesterday was supposed to be a longer run and I only went 45, I went 15 more minutes today after striders to make it longer. It felt pretty good!

Went camping with Macey and we got back at like 7. Then I went to dinner with my parents in Zion, because they picked me up and didn't take me home. I didn't run until 9:00. Nonetheless, it was delicious food followed by a pretty good run with my dad on the bike. We had a good chat. 50 minutes and 5.5 miles

Long run today. It was pretty good! Most of the time it was me, El, Jace, Ry, Add, and Roberts. we ran up grapevine and down through coral canyon and up telegraph. Then we went through the turf farm and stole some water from prestons hose. We had 4x1:00 minute pickups. I have magical brain power I found out, cuz I guessed the distance we were gonna go- 8.3 miles/75 minutes

Today was a 50 minute hilly run. Most of the time it was Me, Ell, Add and Maycee Hayes. It was a pretty great run! Watch out for Maycee, cuz she's gonna give all the varsity runners a run for their money. She's a beast and works so hard! I felt way good today! Hills are definitely my fave thing about running. They feel so good! Also, shout out to Ellie for staying with me and roberts up the big hill. It was a though hill and she is speedy 51 minutes//5.75

Weights were good today

Today we met at a park that I cannot currently remember the name of. It was by the Dixie center. It was a really good park with soft grass. Also, Byron was there cuz he just got off the mission. The bike trails were really fun to run on. We had a decent sized group at the beginning, but, me, El, Caroline, and Roberts completed the loop. It was a very good run. I felt super awesome! 5.4 miles on the loop in 45 minutes. Then 6 striders. Total mileage is 6.15//50 minutes

Me, El, Addi, Maycee, and Caroline met at a church on Bluff street and ran to chuckwalla. My knee felt super wierd on the trail, and so I flipped and Caroline came with me and we just ran on the path by the road. It was a pretty good run, except for the knee part. I iced it really a lot and it losened up a lot as the day has gone on, so that's pretty stupendous. 5.9 miles//55 minutes

Wow today was the best run ever!! We had a 15 minute warm up to the dirt mile. Then we had a 25 minute tempo! It was so good! No one fell off of our group and we all stayed together the WHOLE time! We all encouraged each other and just had a good run. I wanted to try staying In the back of the pack because sometimes it's super hard for me to hang on back there, but now i know that I can do it! Ah, seriously the best workout ever. I enjoyed every minute of it! Then, we cooled down. 61 minutes//7.2 miles

am- Today I struggled a little. I was just feelin really eh. I feel bad, because i wasn't even trying to be positive, which I should have been at least trying to do. 61 minutes//6.5 miles

pm- i couldn't go to practice because I had to work. I was accidentally really dumb 3 weeks ago and scheduled for today forgetting that we were gonna start pm practice, and I couldn't change it. So alas, I missed. But i will not do that again! I ran 15 minutes by myself. I found 32¢, so that was cool. Now I can participate in 32¢ Tuesday next week!  15 minutes// 1.7 miles
