Notes

Race went okay, for some reason I just felt really nervous today and couldn't figure out why, got a little antsy with the race taking forever to start up. Meet was against Noblesville and Laffayette Jeff. In the varsity race it was Walde, Zach, me, Bobby, and Sechuga. Race started, I tried to merge in a little, the Noblesville guys were really annoying to try to pass cause they would just pass you right back. Sechuga started right ahead of me, Bobby chilled behind me. We took the first lap real slow, a 1:12. Pretty good wind on the backstretch, next lap another solid lap and I came through the 800 in 2:23 (1:11). For the first 800 I wasn't very focused on the race. I was thinking about off topic things and wasn't really mentally in it. The third lap things started to hurt a bit, tried to push it a little, Bobby took over me, I tried to go with him, third lap was tough. Came through 1200 in 3:22 (1:09), last lap I tried to push pretty good, legs weren't as dead as Saturday but I still didn't push as well as I wanted to, the final 100 meters was tough, tried to kick, Sechuga caught me with about 4 meters to go. Overall not happy with the time, but a fairly decent race all things considered.
