State today. When we got there the girls took a POTTY break and our own roll of toilet paper. We then did a warm up and we went along the road on the grass up to the Sego Lily Pavilion and then turned around and went back to change our shoes and have our Pixi Stix. Then we went to the line for check in to box 11. We did several strides and then said our prayer and cheer and did more strides. I think that was the most energetic our cheer has ever been, Natalie, Annie, Maggie, Becca, Olivia, and Sarah Sa. When we started I had been hoping to go out hard with Natalie, but then I got boxed in and people kept cutting me off and elbowing me. Especially the Skyline girls, so I started to use my elbows to get back. When we were up top by the road at 21st south, I got shoved into one of the dirt piles, so when I came back on course I sped up to get away from the freaks that wouldn't stop touching me. I spend the next half mile getting away from the over-competitive jerks who were slow and unsportsmanlike, ugh it was so annoying! Once I got up our hill we do 400s on for practice, I felt like dying. My stomach felt like it was just squeezing itself in, not my abs, my stomach, the little thing inside of me that digests food. I kept myself strong and in position, passing a few people. Once I got to the point where I only had half a mile left, speed change. I wanted to pass the pack of 20 girls in front of me. I passed between 5-10 people and only had about 300 left to go when I felt the true pain. I couldn't breathe, my stomach felt really tight, and my legs weighed a ton. I tried to work up my kick once I got to the track, but instead 5 girls passed me and everyone got away from me. It was horrifying. After I got away from people I changed back into my trainers and jogged around cheering on the boys and socializing with my friends from other teams. It wasn't quite a mile, but the strides before the awful race took the mileage up a bit, so I'm just going to count it as a mile cooldown and strides. Now I really need to charge my Garmin...
