| 6x400 at probable time trial pace with a minute and a half of rest. Wanted to hit 69. Got a 67 for the first, 68 for the second, and then got dialed in with the right split for the rest of the workout. Very windy day.

| Time trial today. Wasn't expecting anything great due to my recent training difficulties. As usual all of us were in trainers. Many were bummed that the track was wet for our run but in this area it always will be. I took out the first 200 in 31 and backed off immediately when I realized what I had done, coming through the lap in a more reasonable 66. The cause of my quick start could have been my teammates, in the opening bit, trying to get ahead of me for whatever reason and forcing me to go very fast. I missed the presence of Alex because, although having somebody running directly behind you doesn't help much, it certainly is a motivating factor to have people near you. I made separation at 500 meters. Came through 800 at 2:17. 1200 was a 3:31. Finished in 4:39, my fastest time trial that I've ever run. Dante is currently running well as he got second with a 4:51. Matthew was slightly behind him and he also ran 4:51, having outkicked Will who ran fourth with 4:52. Our team is hurting and there were some disappointing time trials, but I can go into this season with the hope and expectation that it will be better than last year's track season and shift the tone of my upperclassmen years. Coach Brad says that, since I have been able to pull off a very long kick before, that I should stretch out my kick to 400, maybe 500 meters. I agree with him. First meet, the Jamboree, will have Bishop Blanchet and thus Peter, the 3rd fastest runner in 3A (And 4th fastest time in all divisions at the state meet if I recall correctly) in it. I am currently running fast with little training and in two weeks I fully expect to be great. It would be a privilege to have a fast runner to stick with and thus run a very fast time early in the season, whatever event it ends up happening in.

| Saturday long run. 35 miles this week. I'm just finally coming back to mileage of significance now. I feel good now that I am more in control of my glute.

| Workout day. 4x200 + 4x400 + 4x200. Coach told us to run slightly faster than time trial pace so I was supposed to do 33s and 67s. Rest was to slow-jog/recover the same distance as our previous interval. Not very challenging so my jog was 8:00 mile pace and my rest was 1 minute for 200s and 2 minutes for 400s. Hit my splits with a few fast intervals. 31 for first one because people from the group behind me tried to run with me and I thought I was going too slowly. Turns out they were far past their pace. 31 for one where I got distracted and subconsciously went faster to lap Carter's group again before I finished the interval. First and last 400s were 66s due to pacing error. All in all I feel good but it's hard not to want to do a more strenuous workout.

| Very cold and rainy run today. Not pleasant. I am on my way to 40 miles this week. Glad to be at least somewhat back in the loop.

| Lightish workout of 6x1k with 60 seconds rest. Felt good. Wanted 3:15 but my first one I went overboard due to confusion from my teammates running with me and did 3:02. The remaining repeats were average 3:13 with very little variation. Tiring, but by no means extremely difficult. I'm in good shape. Currently I have yet again become sick but I will be more responsible and dial off training if my coach seems it necessary. I'm not going to lose a ridiculous amount of weight from something like this again.

| 8 miles today at easy pace. I am sick and it was very difficult to do it but I'm glad it's over. Coach said I can still run.

| Turns out I am running a fever. Maybe I shouldn't have run on it yesterday but I completed my weekly mileage. Not sure if there's potential for me to run tomorrow. I don't want to damage my training by running through sickness like I did during XC.

| So I got sick this week and missed Monday. I am typing this from Sunday and entered my easy mileage for the day as my total from the week. Ran the 800 as I didn't think I could handle a longer distance being sick (was worried cause I bombed a workout on Wednesday). Took it out in fourth and caught up with the group in the final straightaway of the first lap. Passed the leader (Dante) at 500m and made a break, kicking hard down the final stretch. Apparently that wasn't enough as Dante came past me and won by a tenth or two. Still happy with a two second PR in my first race of the season in this condition. Dropped a 55 in the third leg of my 4x400 for my fastest quarter ever run and our team won the meet. Watched our freshmen Tom and Ben both run 4:52 for their first race, which was great. Both of those guys should be under 4:40 by the end of the season. Finished an 8 mile run on Saturday.

| Awesome tempo today. Still coughing but almost in the same shape I was at the END of XC according to this run. That's good news for my 3200 on Thursday. Very glad Watson had an incredibly solid workout.

| 3x(200+200+800) with huge rest (4 min) between sets and ~1 min between intervals, first two in my trainers with 800s of 2:15 and 2:16. Last interval in my spikes with a slight negative split 2:12. Thought spikes would make a bigger difference but I was tired.

| Raced the 3200 today. Went out in 4:48 and had a good rhythm. Race fell apart and I ran 75, 76, 75, 70 finishing my second mile in 4:57. Not a horrible solo effort for the start of the season but not a good one either. Legs felt spent from the get go. Probably can pin this one on my workouts this week and the fact that I'm still coughing so there is something in my lungs. Then one of the 4x4 teams wanted me so I ran that and split a 57. Last time I split a 55 but I'd run the 800 then and there were people right around me during the relay. This time I had just finished the 3200 a couple minutes beforehand and was passed the baton with my team slightly gapped from the others. Got a little ground on one of Juanita's teams but not much. I wore 1/8th inch spikes today and I didn't like the feel. Didn't get the easy grip on the track that I got with 1/4ths that made running in spikes feel so effortless. I will try racing in 3/16th inch spikes next week in all likelihood.

| Good mile today, ran 2 68s going out, 3rd lap was 66 and I took the lead with 500m to go. Came through the line in 3:22 high and did the final lap in 62 mid for a 4:25 low. Big negative split so I know I can go faster. This is positive news. My legs were not ready to double today and I also ran the 2 mile. I was not expecting to have to race so it caught me off guard when I got passed. Ran 9:42 for second. Mile's in a good place but hopefully I can get a little closer to my best in the 3200.
