| Location: Logan,Ut,United States Member Since: Jul 14, 2013 Gender: Male Goal Type: Other Running Accomplishments: My very first race was the Top of Utah Half Marathon. I finished in 01:29:45. Even though it wasn't amazing, I took 3rd place in my age division which was a huge accomplishment for myself. After that I did a large amount of 5 and 10K's, Ragnar's, etc. In 2012 I put together and Ultra Ragnar Team. After this I started to focus on shorter races and worked towards running track with Utah State University. As I was getting close to running with the team, I met Cody Draper. He introduced me to trail running....I'm now a trail runner! Just did my first ultra marathon two weeks ago...Logan Peak. I finished in 5th place and got under my goal of 5 hours.
Short-Term Running Goals: In the next two years, I'd like to run a 50K and a 50 miler. If those two races go well, I'd like to do the Bear 100 in 2 years from this summer. Long-Term Running Goals: I'm not sure how much of a goal this is...it's more of a wish that's way towards the stars. I'd like to eventually get good enough that I have offers to be sponsored as a runner. But my actual long term goals are:
1. A 100 miler 2. Win an ultra marathon. 3. Be apart of the 80 year old marathon runner club Personal: I'm single! The only exciting thing going on in my life is I'm getting into trail running! |

| Did one last run with JJ today. Knuckles came a long. We did Epraims Grave cut off and ran to the sink hole. After that I cruised on the way down. It felt great. After running we all went to Herm's to eat after.

| Today was the El Vaquero Loco. Had a decent sleep for this one. Compared to speedgoat, this was great. Slept in my hammock and wasn't interuppted by drunk people.
The race started and I was in the top 10 the whole race. On the way up to Balls I ran with a man named Chirs. Super friendly guy. I got to the top around 54 minutes and then took off down Balls. Cody was at the first aid station helping out. It was good to see him (wish he was running). Things were great for the next few miles.
Once I got to the top of the long downhill to the halfway mark, I took off. I passed people and got to the halfway point in 5 place. As I left the halfway point I was following 4 place for a good while. But, I started to get tired, and got passed by three people. Now I was in 8. I was feeling a little discouraged cause I thought I was going really slow (at the end of the race I found out I was right on pace).
I was trailing 7 place for the whole last half. But, once we got to the top of balls, I took off and went flying into the finish. I wanted to get under 6 hours, but I'm not going to get picky. Overall, this was a great race and I'm pleased with the results.

| One of the boys from worked was approved to horse ride once a week. So I took him out to Cornish to let him ride my dad's horses. While he was riding I did a little paved/dirt road run. After the first mile the boy got off to fix his saddle and the horse took off. So, I had to take a break and help get it. So that took away a couple miles from me.

| A group of friends wanted to hike Cherry Peak today. I tagged along so I could run it. The first part of it we all made a mistake and went left where we should have went right. It led us to a pretty cool waterfall though! After that we went back and then went where we were supposed to go. Because of time we didn't make it to the peak. I made it to just below the lake while everyone else made it to the wild flowers. I sat around and waited a lot for them. It was an ok run for effort....but amazing for the views.

| Did the Logan Peak Course today with Knuckles. I was very sore considering I did Cherry Peak Saturday and the race the week before that. Knuckles hasn't been running much so he was sore as well. At about mile 8 we stopped at the spring to fill up. A minute after the Spanish Sheep Herder came by on his horse. He didn't know much english but that didn't stop him....he tried talking to us for a good 40 minutes. Haha it's amazing how long you can talk to someone using hand gestures and trying to guess what they are talking about. He is an awesome guy. Very fun. After that we took off. Knuckles was feeling terrible...so I went up to the turn off for the peak and waited. He got there and wanted to rest while I ran to the peak. So, I hurry and ran to the top then headed back down. The rest of the run was at a nice easy pace. Great run.

| Did a fun hike/run this morning with: Fan, Cody, Erik and Keagan. We went up dry canyon and headed to flat top. Not going to lie, going up dry was pretty darn miserable. The trail was overgrown. The plants and trees were covered with water from last night's rain storm. So, the first hour I was leading the pack...I was drenched. We all were drenched. It was quite cold. We got to flat top and it started warming up. I think it's safe to say that this is my favoirte peak by far. Such a pretty view. Then we headed down Birch canyon. That was fun. Fan, Erik and I took off and Cody and Keagan reared the back up. It was a great run. Nice having people to run with again.

| Did a big run today. Started at first dam and headed up the River trail. Nice and easy at first. Then, I did the Crimson Trail. Went pretty slow up and along that. After that, I headed across the highway towards the Wind Caves trail. Started heading up that. Halfway up I cut across on the trail that headed to Beirdneau Peak. Got to the top....feeling tired and hot...then headed down into green canyon. That trail is one of my favorite trails by far. It is so pretty, shady and fun. When I got to the mouth of green, I filled up with water and decided to add one more mile with a lot of vertical...so I headed up the face of green. Boy did I go slow. I was very winded and tired and felt like I was going to pass out. After that, I slowly headed down and cut across the BST to first dam. Great and hard run. At the mouth of green I met some 4 graders who just ran the BST. I guess for PE they get to go trail running every Friday. Lucky kids
