Notes
Hornet Red Devil XC Meet - up at 6am to eat right away - had cliff bar and some cheerios - stomach pretty empty before race - slight hungry feeling - felt good on warmup but not so much on strides - no room to do full strides with all the teams there - first mile felt slow because of how ridiculously crowded it was but still went out in 5:30 exactly like I wanted to - second mile slower in 5:50ish? - felt completely dead after two miles like always - jake and sarna passed me at this point - then right before 2.5mi at the creek I lost my left spike in the mud - sock stayed on - finished race without spike - no pain or discomfort without spike but it was definitely harder to get traction and push off - last mile much slower in 6 flatish - legs felt great on long cool down - gorged afterwards - 4th place for team behind Sarna, Adams, Busen
