Notes
Not a bad season opener. Felt horrible on the warm up. Got inside and headed for the bathroom. Saw a 1 man bathroom open and started jogging over there but someone else ducked in. Ended up waiting for that guy for like 15 mins and doing my dynamics and stuff in front of the bathroom door. Couldn't bring myself to look for another one and end up at the back of a line so I just stuck it out. Finally used the bathroom and got back out to the track only to see my heat lining up. Threw my spikes and uni on and sprinted to the start and basically made it in the nick of time. Was kinda annoyed since multiple officials told me they were sticking to schedule and not going ahead of set times. Legs were complete lead for the first couple laps after not doing any strides, but the marathon strength took over after that and I was able to keep rolling. Closed decently well. Pleased with an 8:26 off minimal speed work and with still having a slight sickness. Good confidence for pacing next week.
