Notes

3rd heat of the 1500. I was seeded at 4:15, but I did not plan on running that. I am happier with this race than the time would suggest. I was really dreading running this race for whatever reason, and was worried about my butt pain, but that turned out to be a non-factor. First lap 69, 800 in 2:20. I started in the back because I was shoved at the start. I tried to just hold my pace and figured some people would come back to me. I passed a few people and felt pretty confident around the 800 mark. 400 to go I was at 3:15, so I knew time would not be that great. I held onto my pace and tried to kick it in hard the last 200 and I think I closed well. After this race, I did not feel particularly tired. I felt strange, hard to explain, but I felt like I could have gone faster. I am happy with this though and have something to work on the rest of the season.
