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...

| February has been a bad month for me. After the first week I got sick and had a few minor injuries with my back and feet. I decided to take a few weeks off before track started so I would be ready to do the workouts. It really helped and now I am almost fully recovered and ready to take on this season. Today was the first day of track. We had twice as many guys as I expected, but I guess that usually happens and then half of them drop out in the first week. Anyway, we designated Mondays for long runs so we ran a 10 mile loop course out south on the asphalt. |

| For track today we have 2 miles for both warm-ups and cool down. For our workout we ran 3 miles on the canal trail. Then we ran pyramids -- 8, 6, 4, 2, 4, 6, 8 -- at 4 seconds slower than 1600 race pace. It wasn't really fast, but I'm not used to that yet so I took it a bit easy. 4x100m strides, those felt nice. I still got really sore and iced afterwards. |

| Warm-ups and cool down was a mile. Then we ran an easy 5 along the canal. This past week was a real killer. Track started and I had loads of homework because it's almost the end of the quarter. Hopefully the stress will cool off a bit in the near future so I can focus on my running and get some good sleep at night. |

| Warm-ups and cool down was a mile. Then we ran 4x200s a little faster than 1600 race pace. After that we ran an easy 5 miles on the cinder knoll loop. It was a really fun run, nice and relaxed the whole way. It was a great stress reliever. My feet didn't bother me quite as much so that is a good sign. I am trying to run lightly on them as much as possible. |

| I got up at 6 this morning and this time I actually went for a run. I've been waking up at 6 this whole week, but I always had to do homework. Hopefully that's over with. Anyway, just 3 mile loop around my house on the opposite side of the fair run.
This afternoon I did half a mile warm up with the track team and our speed drills. Coach told us to go 5 today. All the other guys just left Joe and I so I decided to take a fun trail run up on the H hill. Joe said his calves were really bothering him so I told him to take the weekend off. I ran a 5 mile loop course. I didn't think I would feel like going fast, but it turned out I was wrong. I felt great! It was really hot though, hottest day this year so far. Hopefully I will get used to the heat soon so it doesn't affect me too much.

This morning I ran an 8 miler on the H hill from highway to highway, the Gould's wash run. My dad rode along with me on his bike and my mom drove behind us. I love running up on the H hill. There are so many great trails that are really fun, and I get good altitude training. The first mile I went slow, more of a warm up mile. After a few miles I felt really good and started to pick up the pace. Here are my splits: 1 - 7:16
2 - 6:19
3 - 6:55
4 - 6:16
5 - 5:56
6 - 5:59
7 - 5:51
8 - 5:51 Afterwards I jogged a little cool down. I won't be able to run this afternoon because of preference. Darn girls distracting me from my running! Oh well, it will be fun and I got a good run this morning.
