Personal:

I'm a junior at Hurricane High School. I love music. I sing in the chamber choir and I play the piano and the guitar. Other sports that I love include basketball, soccer, and racquetball. By the way, if anyone's up for a game of racquetball, I'm game! Anyways, gotta run...

Race: Deseret News 10k (6.2 Miles) 00:32:34, Place in age division: 9

Race started at 6 am.  I was at the front of the starting line with the rest of Team Utah and Team USA and the running blog team.  Took off really fast and by the first mile I already knew my legs were not going to hold up.  2 weeks is a bit much to rest before a race.  I basically just made it the rest of the way to the finish.  Our team got 3rd just 2 points behind the running blog team.  Team USA killed us all.  My legs were sore going into the race and now they are so stiff I can hardly walk.  My hip had no problems during the race but I thought I could slightly feel it a little afterwards.  Hopefully it will stay strong.

Hey man, great race considering the unfortunate injury. Hope it does hold up and sorry I missed the race...I was kinda mad. but great job anyway. We'll have to go run together sometime when you wanna get some extra miles in besides XC practice. lol.

Hey Karl, nice race. It was cool hanging out with you at the race. Good luck with cross country this season.
