Notes

Quad meet @ Bowdoin w/ Tufts and Springfield. In the slow heat of the mile, seeded at 4:34 and wanted to run that. Was seeded 5th in the heat so knew that there were plenty of good guys and was hoping for a fast race. Didn't have a great start, was in the back through the first lap or two and then I started moving up on lap 3 because we came through the first quarter really slow (like 71). Made a big move into 1st at 600 and led for the next 3 laps. I believe that 600 - 1000 was a 66. Then on lap 7 people started blowing by me and I totally caved. Last quarter was a 75 :/. Pretty upset that I let everyone go so easily at the end, I think that I could have stayed more focused and hung on. In any case I feel like I am in PR shape and I just need to get in a race that will run even 68s. Breaking 4:30 is the season goal for sure. Hopefully will get a good shot to run fast at Springfield next weekend.
