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!

Coach gave the girls a pep talk about region and how good we have done so far, then we ran 2 very easy, slow miles.  After that we did 6 striders and the first one was a little short.  I wasn't feeling amazing, but I was super pumped for region.

All day I was pretty pumped for region.  When we got there, the nerves finally kicked in.  We jogged around the course adding up to about two miles and I was really ready.  I feel like I warmed up early, but it helped me mentally quite a bit.  I really wanted to get over with it.  When we did a couple striders I wasn't going as fast as I'd liked, but it turned out okay. 

When we started I kept my eye on the hill that we were going to run past which really helped me have a good start.  Once we reached a street I noticed Vickie and I hoped to stay with her, but I slowly got further behind her.  I then kept up with Jessie, a Logan girl, and my teammate Lauren.  I was feeling really good, but when we passed the one mile mark I got nervous, because our first mile was a little slower than 6 which I thought was way too fast.  We completed the first loop and continued to stick together.  After the second mile I was still feeling good.  We got toward the last 800m and there were these two bumps that took lots of my energy out of me and I slowed a bit.  I caught back up  with the two and then Jessie sprinted off.  I tried to sprint, but I couldn't stay with her.  The last 200 meteres was hard because you thought the finish was right there, but it seemed so far away.  I tried to sprint from Lauren knowing there was also a MC girl behind us, but the last 50m they both sprinted past me. Our times are so close. I'm really mad about it, but I learned that you don't pull back until the very end.

I felt tired afterwards, but when I saw my time I got super happy and pumped because my goal was sub-twenty and I got sub-nineteen!  We cooled down about a mile while watching the boys race.  I had a really good day.

Although it was a break, the girls and our coaches (and Ethan) still met up and ran.  All we did was four easy miles and it was fun talking the entire time.

We met up again in the morning and did a slow one mile warmup to Mack Park.  We did one 600 I pace and it was WAY too fast, but oh well. Then we did 200 recovery.  Next, we ran three 200s R pace which we all about 40 seconds which was also fast, with 200 recovery.  Then we ran back about 1.3 miles cool down.

I ran 3 miles with my dad at 8:00-8:20 pace.  Coach didn't want us to run faster than 26 minutes 3 mile, but we were much faster than that.  I felt really good, though.
