Notes
Race @ loyola on Lake Michigan and we deff had weather effects from it. The wind was blowing pretty bad across the course and even started raining at the start of our race. I felt really good before hand though. The start was a crazy mess 2 diff ppl fell infront of me and I couldnt get out which was prolly good since i still ran a 5:30 first mile 13 seconds faster then I came out at isu. I stayed strong the whole race and never really broke down at all and I know I finished with a little more in the tank then I should which is crazy since i PRed by 43 seconds today. I tried staying about 20 seconds behind AY cause I knew he would run right around 27 and my goal was 27:24 but he had a lights out race runnin in the 26:20s and carried me along. I ended up 2 secs behind and 3 ahead of 2 guys i ran against in high school who were sub 9:50 2 milers.
