Notes

*Time is unofficial so not sure exactly what it was I'll update later.

PR but a dissapointing race, I thought today was the day but I guess we underestimated how hard it would be to qualify for leagues, let alone break 16. Wasn't feeling great on the line but as soon as we got going I felt really smooth. Tried my best to just tuck in and relax for the first half which I think I did well. Not 100% on any of the splits, I think we were around 5:04 for the mile which is alright, maybe a little slower would've been better to break 16. Felt pretty comfortable for the first 3k, did my best to close any gaps and not do any leading into the wind. I think after 2 miles I had to start moving up and running out in front. Stayed composed for 4400 meters then blew it. Really frustrating because I put in the work and had sub 16 in my sights but couldn't close it, had absolutely nothing the last lap. And to cap it off Dan made a fool out of me again the last 100 which is fun... I guess a 100m gap still isn't enough to hold him off, it really would've been fine if I had closed anywhere near pace.
