I am striving to be the best me I can be. For now, that means I'm going to college at BYU and attempting to walk on to their cross-country team for the fall. I am expecting to serve a mission following the end of the semester. My goal in life is to teach the deppressed how to geuninely smile, the anxious how to stand confident and courageous and the heartbroken and hopeless how to regain faith. The world would be a better place if more people learned how to love.

I've really struggled blogging about these last few weeks. It was just difficult. Plus I like my breaks to be free from running. I'm just trying to make running fun again.

1600: I was a bit nervous but all of that was dealt with as I prepped. Race went out as expected through 200 but after 200 it got so strung out. Lap two, Jaiden started goin-ish. Things started to get a little tough on the back stretch but that was expected. I hung in there and then Jaiden slowed waaaay down at the end of lap two and I took off. I flew through that third lap and by halfway through the 4th I was honestly surprised by how short this race seemed and how much gas I still had. Then Jaiden got me with 50 left. Dang...

Medley: Got the baton, ran fast, got tired, passed Skylar, lost to Skylar. He was simply the stronger man. Not so hot a race.

Hey Eric, I got a favor to beg of you. If you see this on Tuesday, July 7th write back on here.

What do you need?

Coach Fielding, Steve from the running Center and I are running the Virgin Rim Trail up on Cedar Mt. Tomorrow morning and need someone to drive us from woods Ranch up the mountain and bring the car back down to Woods Ranch. It would be kinda early, but you could jump in on some trail with us if you wanted. Would you be interested at all?

Oh yeah, for sure. I have to get practice started at 6 but after that I've got some flexibility. How far up the mountain are you going? Navajo Lake-ish?

I think it would be easiest if you picked me up at the high school. what time?

From Holt on Tue, Jul 07, 2015 at 22:26:11 from 67.2.233.231

Well actually coming through cedar at about 5:15 - leaving here at 4:30. I'm headed to bed. But if you can, leave a note on here and I'll check it the morning. If it puts you too close to practice or doesn't work for you no stress. We'll work it out.

From Eric Lambert on Tue, Jul 07, 2015 at 23:10:10 from 96.60.207.130

Yeah, I don't think it's gonna workout. I wasn't able to get a hold of the other guys about practice tomorrow, so I'm gonna have to be there. Sorry. But next time you come up I'd love to help, even if it's just with a running partner.
