Notes

More to come

Apparently when I say "more to come" I'm supposed to actually write something sometime....

I was extremely happy with this race to open the season. Basically tied my PR (off by 0.13s) from my senior year at Luther at this race two years ago. Haven't ran the mile since then, so I guess I'll take it!

The race got out really well in about 64 through 400m and then the pace slowed a little to come through the 800m in around 2:11-2:12 I think, so I decided to go around Drew to help with the pace a little bit. I was in the lead for a little more than 400m maybe and I had no clue what was going on behind me. Then with less than 400m to go, the whole train blew around me. It was nice to see that Ibex was on that train going around me. I was basically at top speed at that point after the 800m and couldn't really respond. I tried as hard as I could in that last 200m to catch back up and barely out-leaned Drew at the line. It was a really fun race overall and I am super glad to have been a part of it.

Then I felt like complete shit after. It took an hour and a half before I felt good enough to cool down. But that went ok too I guess.

"More to come"? Are we going to have to wait as long as your XC Club Nationals 10k?

I'm not sure I ever wrote anything for that race.... Haha
