Notes

Beautiful day to race. I was hoping to run sub 4:35. Race started out, two North Central kids took it out fast but they slowed it down quickly, I slipped around them and took the lead, came through the first 200 too fast in 31, scaled it back a bit and run 66 for the first lap, exactly what I wanted. Next lap I surged a little, trying to keep pace, but only managed a 70, good for a 2:16 first 800, which was still on pace. Third lap I made my move hard, gapping the rest of the field by a good five seconds on that lap, pushed hard, really happy with the effort and toughness on that lap, only a 72 but still felt good, last lap was tough, Alto said I needed a 68 sec last one to PR, pushed hard but couldn't quite get it, finished lap in 70, good for a 4:38. Probably the happiest I've been on a race where I didn't PR. I just raced it smart and tough and I know results will come next week. Especially excited since I took off all of Spring BReak just biking. Meet monday is finally the day I pr
