Notes
USATF New England Indoor Champs (@ Harvard - 201.168 m a lap)
Ran a very dumb race...went out in a 34 (bc I was afraid I had forgotten what mile pace was and would go out really slow) and then Matt told me to settle which led to me drastically slowing down to run a 38 high second lap, finally got passed on the third ish lap and I immediately let the girl get a mini gap while I continued to run 38s, another girl passed and I closed in on her but just didn't have the drive to go that extra gear and pass her (beat me by 0.48). Last laps was like 36 or something but eh
hadn't a clue what splits I was running during the race, I think had someone yelled at me that I was running 38s it might have shocked me into racing...I was seeded 11th at a 5:05 so I kinda was hoping I be pulled to a 5 flat but no one seemed to want to run fast (except maybe the winner @ 4:56)
I feel like I looked like either a really dumb runner or someone who over-estimated their fitness (I swear I'm just dumb)
Positives - beat my seed time, I was third and so I got a cute little medal, and Colin and friend + Matt came to watch me :D
