Notes
Didn't run the day before, which was probably a mistake. Didn't get that much sleep the night before either. Ate a few nature valley bars and warmed up a lot, with a mini warm up pretty early in the day, then a 15 minute warmup closer to race time. Went out in 28, which seemed too fast, so i slowed down, but that ended up being too slow cuz i went through the 400 in like 61-62. Tried to cruise and stay relaxed for the 3rd 200, but might have relaxed too much. I let chris pass me at like the 600 mark, then passed him again on the final 100. Definitely need to work on making sure my pace for the first lap is closer to 60 and then making sure I don't fall off that too much during the 3rd 200. Season PR, so it wasn't that bad I suppose. I just didn't feel as dead as I usually do after an 8, so I must have done something wrong.
