In my freshmen year, I lettered in both track and cross country. I also got the Rookie of the Year Award in cross country, and the Freshmen of the Year Award in track.
Short-Term Running Goals:
In the next cross country season, I want to do a 5k in under 19 minutes. For the track season, I want to get state qualifying times. Maybe I could run faster than my older brother...
Long-Term Running Goals:
It would be cool to set a state record, but I don't know if I could do it. But I still have a few years so I'll train hard.
Personal:
This next school year I will be a sophomore, I'm 15. I go to East High, and on the off season I run with Wasatch Athletics.
My oldest brother used to run, but he is lazy now. My other brother runs though, and I'm getting my little sister to be a distance runner. My dad recently began to run so he runs now too.

Today I ran from my house to Sugarhouse Park, did a lap around the outside, and went back home. There, 1.2 miles, my time was 9:20, then the 2 miles in the park 15:40, and back home 9:20 again. I'm glad I kept a nice pace.
Tonight I went to the Oympic Oval for a speedworkout. I started with 8 laps warmup and then 4 laps speedchanges with a lap recovery. Then I did a mile, my time was 6:06, with 2 laps recovery. Then I did three 400s, 2 with a lap recovery, but after the third my calves were hurting so I did 4 laps cooldown. I think I just need to get my miles back up, this is the longest run I've done in a while.
