Notes

Ran the steeplechase race in 10:06:55. I'm semi-happy because I wanted to break 10:00. I tasted that peanut butter bagel the whole race. I was in the fast heat (seeded 13th of 15). I finished 13th in my heat and 15th overall of 25 runners. We went out fast for me. I usually get out quick, but today we got out real quick. I was hurting the whole race and I really just didn't feel right in the race at all. It felt like I wasn't focusing. My 400 split was 73 and 5:14-5:15 at the first mile, five seconds faster than last week. I was at 7:22 with 800 meters left (eight seconds faster than last week). But I still only finished two seconds faster. I had decent kick and I beat Niezgoda and Milanese (SLU). That means I came back in my 800 in 2:44 and my 400 in 76.50. That one 400 before my last one killed me. It was an 88! That pisses me off. I am thinking about running it this weekend depening on where we go. I want to break 10:00! Don't know if I should do that or just take two weeks off and work on mileage for cross country. Here are a couple of results:

1. Jason Casey (GEN) - 9:23.32

3. Mike Mills (GEN) - 9:36.36

4. Dave Bolen (BROCK) - 9:39.00

15. Jamie McConeghy (BROCK) - 10:06.55

21. Brandon St. John (BROCK) - 10:35.26
