Notes
Beat Upper Moreland (scrimmage at our home course).
Felt pretty good with how I raced. Felt a bit more competitive and that I'm getting the feel for running down. Wasn't as fast as my time last year (18:40's I think) but that was also a bit later in the season.
We knew we were going to crush Upper Moreland, so we didn't really have to worry about winning the race. I knew their top guy was probably going to beat me (he actually snuck up and out kicked our top five guys who finished all at the same time), but I was hoping to beat their 2nd man. Ends up he passed me, Cahill, and Montague and we were not able to catch back up with him.
Almost caught Montague, but I felt that the team needed me to get him to run faster more than I needed to be in the top 7 today, so I said a few words to wake him up in the last mile. He wasn't giving it his all up to that point.
Felt pretty good about just staying relaxed and pressing hard throughout the race. Didn't worry about killing myself, but just kept the pressure going. I think by League's + Districts I'll be more than ready to go all out.
