Notes

Microbrew mile 2k17. not as hot as last year but still pretty hot and definitely humid out. not sure on any splits but finished feeling like i had a bit more-likely because i didnt go out as hard as a i should. i gave too much respect to the two kenyans that showed up since they announced 1 was a sub 4miler. just let him go from the start. stayed on the other kenyan until about 400 in and then let him go as well. after rounding the first two turns i was probably 25ish meters back from the 2nd kenyan. i started reeling him in and caught him by the 1k. passed him by pretty quick and was gaining on the leader. just ran out of time though. was catching him around the final two turns and on the kick but he was just too far ahead. he ended up winning in 420, i was 423, and the other kenyan was 425. i did my longer run this morning the way i did it because i figured there wouldnt be any competition during this race (and had these random kenyans not shown up there wouldnt have been) but oh well. it was still fun and a good experience/effort. the 6k would've been interesting because they doubled back and went 1830-1840 and i think i could've been right with them but not trying to do too much. i still had a solid overall day of training so im happy with that
