Notes
Hey, there! okay so SPAC 2014 5k and I ran the same exact time as last year 1 week later in the season. (though maybe it was slightly longer this year)
I went out in the back, slide to the far left and just ran like my eyes were closed (not caring who was around just running to feel allright) I kept the feeling of allright untill the 1 mile marker that was 6:34 (last week I came in t0o fast at 6:12) I then recalled coaches voice and told myself "don't setlle" So it was Emily, Maddie, Taylor and I down the pool hill and just like 3k workout Emily surged ahead. I hate downhills so i just went maximine pace without falling. Then I went up Ferdinadle and this is what I LOVE about this course, a hill when I am dying because it forces everyone else to slow down and then I can push myself out of my comfort zone to pain. Then in the woods I made sure I caught 5 because I knew it would be my last possible chance then back out in the straightaway where the first nonRPI person passed me since the first 1k.
Overall- I think I ran smart way better pace then last week. The time compartvley to teammates is slow, but I'm running my race. As I grow as a runner so does the team, maybe at the same pace but they started out faster. It's fine I'm HAPPy! it was a good race feeeling wise.
