Notes

Got raped on this one today. I'm glad to lose to so many because that means the guys are running well but I didn't imagine running this slow at all. It's frustrating to know I'm in much better shape than it looked. 2 mile went fairly well all things considered. We ran a bit early, which kinda sucked because I didn't finish my drills, stretching, or strides, but there's still no excuse for feeling stronger later in the race. Ran backward on the track to keep from Carrigan's knee hurting the whole time. Pace felt quicker than it was the first 400, hitting 68ish. Rolled through in 2:19, 3:28, 4:38 (already back a few seconds). Only other split I remember is 7:00 at 2400 meters but I'm getting rolled by people already. Get the fly- by from a few more guys and close really slow compared to a normal track race for me. Will get over it since I'm running a half-marathon next weekend and not another 2 mile, but weird to go from not losing in 3 months to getting like 15th in an event of just NCC. Glad to see the guys drop 23 prs though, and Lancaster just flying looking like he's out for a jog in 9:11. Those guys have got some great momentum this year.
