Personal:

Served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints from July 2015-July 2017.  I gained 30 lbs. during the service and came back out of shape; however I knew that if the Lord wanted me to once again run competitively, he would bless me to return to fitness. 

I graduated from Sky View High School in Smithfield, Utah. I currently run for Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah.

AM-10 miles with Claire, 5 on my own. I’m not sure if we’ll have time for a second run, so I made it a little longer.

PM-Attempted to run 5 miles, but a questionable breakfast said no, so I settled for 4. Probably can’t run tomorrow due to travel, but if our flights don’t get cancelled or delayed, I might be able to run a couple miles in Chicago.

AM-10 miles at 6.  I have class early, so looks like I'll be doing some running on my own.

PM-8 miles with Clayton, Talem, and Zac.

.5 miles with the team.  I couldn't breathe other than short fast breathes, even though we were going over 7:30 pace, and eventually I had to stop with my hands on my knees. Arm also went numb when running, had chills and shakes later in the day. I walked back to the locker room, ended up spending most of the day at the hospital, but after a lot of tests, they couldn't determine the exact problem, but of all the things they expected, they all sound very minor.  Hope to run a bit on Saturday.

AM-Despite what I was told, I thought I felt great in the morning, so I wanted to try and run a few miles(5) and then see how I felt in the later stages of the day.  Well, I felt way better than yesterday, but had to call it.  Still had trouble taking long breathes.  

PM 1-1 hour of not too strenuous biking.  I was told I could do it as long as I felt no chest pain.

PM 2-4 mile hike alone in the evening.  Would've much rather been running the trail, but it's a nice hike.  Had to be careful not to cause chest/lung pain.

AM-1 mile.  Not sure if I should record this, but eh, I made it a half mile out on the long run with a hard time breathing, so I tried to play it safe. Slow jog back, then tried to go on a walk, but even that was really tough.  So I waited for everyone at the cars.  I really wish I didn't have this problem now, because I really look forward to running with the team.
