Garek B Running

Started at Coachs house and ran down to Nibley Golf course. Felt good but the hamstrings were a but sore, probably from the bus ride!

Late start this morning so I was able to get 5 miles on the Bonneville Shoreline trail. Felt really good but the hamstrings were still sore.

In the afternoon we ran up to foothill and up to the Utah track. From there we got on the Shriners run and went up to 11th avenue. Ran down that and then did a mile up city creek canyon and down to Memory grove. Ran up South Temple to 13th and back to the school. Added to 14. Felt really good!

6 in the morning.

Afternoon we ran up to the track and did 1 mile or russian quarters (300m hard, 100m ease of the pace a little) which I ran in 4:48. Then we went up to Sunnyside Park and did 2x800 on a grass loop that has a small hill. I hit 2:09 and 2:04 but my hamstrings really started to hurt. Ran back down to the track and did another mile which I hit 4:58. Ran back to school. Massaged my hamstrings, iced, and then rolled.

Ran 4 in the morning.

In the afternoon we ran down to Cottonwood Complex and did 4x500. The 500 had a uphill and downhill and then a slight rise before the finish. I ran them in 83, 82, 85, 83. Then ran back to school. Iced and rolled again tonight. Getting pumped for footlocker!!

Ran 2 in the morning. Then after we got to the hotel did 3 with Josh.

Ran through the course and then did some strides.

Ran around 2 miles warm-up and then strides. Right as the gun went off the guy on my left pushed out and I stumbled a bit so I had a weak start. Tried to make that up but the course narrows really fast. Tried to keep up with Connor but coming down the hill the first time he gapped me. Was trying to work but my legs felt sluggish. Finish was  decent. The race was not has I hoped but I was still content with it. This was my first natioal race and hopefully I'm able to compete in a lot more!
