Running Accomplishments:

Pr's 5k: 16:47 at region (2.9 mile course) 2 mile: 10:35 1 mile: 4:56 I haven't ran anything above a 5k competatively, but i hope to run a half marathon or something this summer.

Short-Term Running Goals:

In the next two years i want to take first in region my junior year in XC. I also want to break 5 on the mile this year, and then probably try and break 4:35 next year as a Sophmore. I also would want to break 10:15 on the two mile and maybe even 10 flat if i can, but all I can do is work hard and hope for the best.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to run a marathon. I have always wanted to know what its like and I would be so thrilled if i could ever break 3 hours. I think thats my main goal. I am also hoping that i can continue to work hard my high school years and somehow maintain a scholarship. Basically, thats my only ticket to BYU so thats what im aiming for.

Personal:

I am 16 and will be getting my drivers permit soon.

YES! I WON A 5k!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was a really fun race and right off the bat I took the lead by a good 20m.  The course was a 2 lap course that was kinda done in a super 8 fashion, so when i cam around the first bend and crossed where we started, I was way out in front. It felt good... I had a long stride, and no one was even close to me.  It was basically like this the whole race, except for the last 400m or so my I noticed my stride was a lot smaller then what it was before... I think I am going to try and work on my stride more so I can keep it long the whole race next time I run a 5k.  anyway, back to the race, I got to break the tape at the end!! it was a really cool experience... but to be honest there wasnt really that big of competition.  I won by 3 and a half minutes to second and third place, and I dont even think that it was a legitimate 5k distance.  Oh well though, im not complaining ha ha.
