Notes
Due to weather, the bus got to the meet later than expected, so warmup started right after we got off the bus again.
I also jumped the gun again. Too excited to work the race plan and take the first 20 seconds out hard. Settled behind the St. Lawrence girl the whole time and let her do the work because I don't know how to run a mile. My thought process was to be more aggressive from the start, and hang out to a faster pace right from the get go. And I was actually feeling really good at that pace. I think the 200 workouts at that pace got me prepared and confident for running that pace in a race, so it felt really comfortable (as comfortable as a race can be). We definitely started off a bit slower and I had a bit left at the end/ the race plan said to have the last 40 seconds as a kick, so I went for it. I am happy to have gotten a PR and hope to keep working hard and riding that train. Hoping to find that balance of training hard, smart and aggressive.
