Nice 3 miler in the morning to wake up. The afternoon was in sight and I felt a little nervous for the time trial.. I had never ran a 800 before. I had heard that you need to take out fast and go hard the first lap and even harder the second lap. The time came to line up at the line and get ready for my first 800. With Coach starting us I took off and got out fast, maybe a little too fast. I felt good the first 400 and came in with a 1:01. That kept confidence of reaching my Kosmin test time of a 2:01. Right after the 500 meter curve I could feel myself slowing down and my legs were a little harder to lift. Eager to finish I pushed through the pain finishing my last 100 meters strong and finishing with a 2:08. I was first of the group and now is the time to watch that time improve. Got some experience now I just need to run my next one smarter and see how it goes. It was good to finally run a 800, my legs didn't feel too bad afterwards either so that was a plus. Good day! |
