Notes

Was looking to go 2:02 by running 58-63 and change. Messy start off the line got me a little too excited and I took the lead by 200m. Coach claims I came through in 59.0, but I heard 61 called out on the line and race video seems to confirm that. Strangely though, that means my next 200 was still kind of fast at a 31, coming through the 600m in 1:31/2, but it makes sense because I thought we were slow at the quarter and started to push. Got toasted again on the last 200, even though I thought I was doing better than last weekend. Overall, I just didn't run a smart race and paid for it at the end. Talked with Coach about race strategy, though... says I should race the people, not the clock, and the time will come from that. I tend to make a move right when I feel good and burn up energy too soon, so next race, he told me to be a little more patient and aim for a 2 second differential between laps. We'll give it a try... might be running the 1500 next weekend though, he didn't decide.
