My team finished 5th overall in this 10 man relay. The finish line was messed up! they had a arrow pointing toward the finish line that I started running to while in 2nd place, but they extended it because the lead guy went the wrong way. A guy passed me near the very end, but he wouldn't have passed me if we went the way the arrow was pointing (the right way). I got 3rd dang it! Atleast I beat Dixie Colleges #1 runner, and Nikki Johnson's boyfriend. The course was about 1200 meters plus the extension they decided to add. I ran it in 4.09. If I would have ran the way the arrow was pointing I would have run a 3.53. My Dad and I tested the extension and it was about a 16 second add on.

I ran about a 1 1/2 miles this morning. After school we ran 5 400's again. I wanted to run 6, but after my 5th I tried to stretch and I was cramping up. I think I was sore from squating 5, 6, 700 pounds on saturday.

I ran over to the track from my house expecting to do a pyramid, but when I got there a soccer game was going down. I had my camelback on with my spikes inside and everything ready to run fast. So I felt like I wanted to run in that red cliffs desert. When I first got into the desert I got lost. Later I found my way and just trucked. I think it was a total of 11 miles about considering the longer distance from my house. Total time: 1.24

Track is really weird right now. I doesn't seem like anyone is really trying that hard. The whole Cappy taking control of the mile/800 guys has to do with a lot of it I'm sure. He expects a lot out of us but the workouts he gives us aren't very smart, and he never really seems to pay attention if we really do it. He also tells us how us distance guys are failures, and that we couldn't do anything else in track. I guess this is how Cappy inspires by telling us we suck.

We ran a pyramid today 400,800,1600,800,400. It was hot for the first time this track season.

Eric Wilson a cedar kid was really pushing me and I really wanted to beat hime but he had a better kick than me. Atleast I got a PR finally! I ate subway like 2 hours before my 800 and I threw up after it. I also ran a 2.22 split in a 4x8 thirty minutes after the open 800.

I was placed in the second heat, but Willy was placed in the first even though he usually runs the mile faster than me. We each ended up getting 2nd in our heats. Erik Wilson was in my race and I really wanted to redeem myself from the 800 he beat me in. I ran the first 3 laps right on his butt, and on the 4th lap with about 200 meters left I passed him and I was hauling. With 100 meters left there was this Timpanogos kid right in front of and I kicked it passing him to get 2nd place. I also PR'd in this race too. My time was 5:14, here are my splits:

lap 1: 1:13

lap 2: 1:23

1ap 3: 1:19

lap 4: 1:19
