Notes
Patriot League Championships. Ran the 600 as a tune up for next week. Was looking to run a fast time, 1:29-1:32.
Everything went really fast. Barely had any time to warm up before we were on the track. They did a start in lanes, I was in the fourth or fifth lane. I was out toward the back of my heat, but still through between 29 and 30 seconds. I made a stupid move on the back stretch of the second lap, barely passing Stack and wasting a lot of energy unnecessarily. I was through the 400 in around 59-60- perfect. I ended up running 1:32.48, close to my PR.
This was a decent race. I still ran an ok time. I probably should have ran a little smarter, and went with Stack rather than wasting energy passing him only to get passed right back. Regardless, I am really excited for Saturday, where I am looking to PR big, possibly running under 2:45. My plan is to try and run 32-33 seconds per lap: 32-33, 64-66. 1:36-1:39, 2:08-2:12. 2:40-2:45. It will be tough, but I think that I am capable. I am going to really try and focusing on racing, getting out with the 2:40 low types and trying to hang.
On another note, I was named a Patriot League All-Star for this season (one of 7 on Pembroke- 6 distance runners and Horn). Really cool and exciting, albeit somewhat mystifying.
