Notes
cardinal classic
waited around for 4 hours for this race, i was a bit nervous because i knew i was the favorite. i may have stressed myself out a bit but once the gun went off i was confident in my fitness. i took the point from the start and did not even look back the entire race, i couldnt hear any footsteps but i tld myself everyone was right on my heels so i didnt settle mentally. i went through the mile in 4:42 a little slower than i was hoping but i was running alone the whole time too, i got to the last 6 last and my throat was dry as a bone but i concentrated on my cadence and tried to stay focused on the race. i ended up winning by 5 sec
