Short-Term Running Goals: Get back into shape
Sub 19 5k by mid August Long-Term Running Goals: Continue to love the sport
Run a marathon (or many) Personal: When I was young, I ran local fun runs with my family, but nothing more. I watched my dad, mom, and 2 older brothers begin running and decided to try it out. During the spring of 6th grade, I ran 3 miles a couple times a week with my dad and have loved running ever since. I ran local 5ks and even a half marathon. In 7th grade I watched Conner, my older brother, run cross country and decided that I wanted to try it.
High School: Really enjoyed it all so much, grateful for all of the friendships I made while doing it. There were ups and downs, but it was a wonderful experience!
I enjoy running, playing piano, painting, skiing, and hiking. Life is totally worth living. Running my favorite meditation. I ran for Sky View High School. I served a mission in the Adriatic North Mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Not yet sure what my plans are with running these next few month, but I am looking forward to an exciting future! Favorite Blogs: |

| My family was in Lake Powell this week and I thought "Why not try to hit 45 miles this week?" Bad idea. It's really hard to run without any trail whatsoever. I wanted to run around this bend thing near the water, which ended up being a mile both ways. It took me 14 minutes to run the first mile. I was dying. It took me another 16 minutes to run the second mile. It felt as if I had run a 10k. I was too lazy to keep going.

| Still at Lake Powell: My dad and I ran together. We were following no trail on sand. I was struggling so much. I couldn't keep up with him because I was stressed about how difficult it was to run on the sand. After 2 miles I broke down because I was worried I'd be burned out due to it being so hard. My dad wanted me to keep going and we found a little area that was flat. He told me we should try some sprints: which was the best idea EVER! Instead I did striders. I think we did six which boosted my confidence SO much. I felt happier and knew I could still go fast. We decided to follow this cool wash, which led to a horse trail. I told my dad we should do it tomorrow and we went back. It was fun when we discovered that area to do striders.

| At Lake Powell: we went later in the morning (around 10) up that horse trail/wash. I thought we could go up 45 minutes, then come back down. We continued following the horse trail. It was a beautiful run, but we were going super slow. It didn't really matter because my breathing was still really deep which meant I was working hard. We went up for over 30 minutes, and my dad had forgotten to turn on his Garmin! It didn't really matter, though, because I felt good. We turned around after we got to a really pretty canyon. We went back to the area to do striders and did 4 shorter ones. Then, we jogged/walked back to the houseboat. It was really fun and we estimated the distance was about 6 miles (maybe more).

| At Lake Powell: I was taking the rest of the week off, but I wanted to get a little run in in the evening as the sun set because my legs were twitching. My mom went on a hike while I jogged to the strider area and did 8. On the fifth one I thought I saw an animal (like a big cat) on the hill, and stopped halfway to check; it was just a rock. When I was done, I jogged back to my mom. At one point I felt like sprinting on the rock because it had gotten easier to run on and I wanted to try it. When I got to my mom we walked back and picked up some pretty rocks and talked which was fun.
