Running Accomplishments:

I have been running ever since my 7th grade year when I joined the junior high track team. When I made the move to High School I jumped right into XC and then to track. Had the opportunity to run at Nike Cross Regionals in Arizona with my team this last season. My PR's are: Mile- 4:54, 2 mile: 10:32, 800m: 2:13, 5K: 17:07, 400: 57 sec.

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

My goals for thie track season is to qualify for state in one of the three main distance events. I'm focusing on getting there for the mile with the rest of my team but would be happy with any that may come my way. 800m: 2:00, Mile: 4:26, 2 Mile: 10:05.

 

Long-Term Running Goals:

I would love to run in college after high school but if that doesn't pan out then my goal is to stay active with running, maybe get into running half or full marathons.

Personal:

Diabetic Asmatic. Found out I had type-1 diabetes right before my first year running XC for my high school. I had asthma as a kid and it went away and recently came back last track season, I didn't find out about it until this last XC season so my PR's aren't quite where I want the to be. Once I began treating my asthma my PR for the 5k dropped by a minute so I'm excited to see how that translates to this track season. Member of Team Pre, follow us @team_pre on instagram!

10 mile distance day today. We ran the warm up in the pouring rain then went inside and lifted a little bit. I squated 95 lbs. with reps of 8, and I did that 4 times. Sean, Brock, and I then went and ran 2 miles on the track while the rest of team pre lifted some more. After we were done with that we went out and ran 9 more miles in the rain to get us at a total of 10 for the day.

6×800's at two mile pace with 90 sec. rest inbetween. The weather was really crappy and after finishing the 3rd 800 I realized that the wind was making it that I couldnt breath. I talked to my coach and she told me to finish it on the bike. After finishing it I cooled down 2 miles with Brock and Sean.

Speed changes during our run today. We did 5 min. on 3 min. off, 4 min. on 3 min. off...all the way down to 1 min. on 3 min. off. We kept the pace at 5:30-5:40 for each one. I felt really good and was up in the front of the group. Definitely feel like I got some redemption after yesterdays run.

Nice easy slow run today. Coach wanted us to get some rest in after all the speed we have been doing lately, especially with doing something else on the track tomorrow. Started off in a big group but by mile 4 there were just 2 of us left, Thomas and myself. We finished off our miles without really increasing our pace too much throughout.

Started with a mile of speed changes and then went right into a circuit workout. Felt good to do some strength things and then we went and finished up our miles to get 8.

Sean, Matt, and I decided to run together this morning. While we were waiting for Matt, Sean and I pulled out our new spikes and did a mile of speed changes so we could start to break them in. Then when Matt showed up, he warmed up and then we left on our run. We ran up to airport (where we do hill workouts) and decided to do a hill workout by ourselves. We would run up the hill and a distanceish pace (.2 miles) and then we would run a loop around the cemetery. The whole thing together added up to be about .7 miles and we did that 5 times. My times for getting up the hill were: 1:30, 1:30, 1:26, 1:22, and 1:22. After finishing we ran back to the high school to finish out 8 miles. My average pace was 6:34/mile.
