9 miles total this morning.

6 miles on my own before meeting up with the team. I ran out along the Arizona Strip. Felt good this morning. Slight chill in the air made it nice.

3 miles with the team over to Hidden Valley Park.

4.5 miles this afternoon. 2 mile warm up, strides, 400, 300, 200, 150, 100, 50m with 100m recovery to the next. Pushed the girls on this one. Felt good to get some turnover in the legs. 1 mile cool down. Core and stretch after.

I am excited for this weekend to see how the team does at state!

Decided to sleep in due to the long drive later.

Got in to Provo and ran at the Kiwanis Park. Lots of fun with the distance group. 4x100m strides after.

Woke up around 6:30am and went for my run along the Provo River Trail heading west towards Utah Lake. I have never ran that way on the trail and it was super nice. I loved how the trail hugged the river the whole way out there so it kept the temps perfect. I did an out and back at 6:40/mile. Legs needed a longer run of 17 miles this morning.

Did 3 more miles after with the distance group on the Provo River Trail. They seemed to enjoy it.

Went and watched the WAC Championships after. Watched the 10000m for the men and women. The kids saw championship style racing at its best. It was lots of fun.

We then went and watched Captain America 2. Probably the best Marvel movie I have seen up to this point.

Spent the whole day at the state track meet. I didn't run this morning due to loud neighbors next to me. Ended up running in the evening with Mark from the hotel into Springville. A touch warm but nice to get a solid run in with him. 7:33/mile. Team did well today.

Woke up early before the second day of the state track meet and did the same run as yesterday except I extended it. Perfect temps this morning made it quite enjoyable. 6:40/mile. Great way to finish off the week. 

Boys took 1st in 3A and the girls took 2nd in 3A. Both teams brought home a trophy! What a great year we had from the distance group. Love working with such fine young men and women.
