Well this was our first track meet of the season. It was not so great. Ran the 1600 and the 800. Was supposed to run the 4x400 but we left after the 3200 which was the best news u had all day!
So the 1600 started out terribly. Got boxed in this giant group of girls going so slow! And I couldn't figure out what to do. We were supposed to run behind people to block the wind but they were going so slow so I tried to go around them, was in like lane 5. Finally got around them and first lap was like a 1:26. Bleck!!! The next three laps the wind hit us hard on the back stretch. Thee worst. Finished pretty strong tho, first on the team but just..not super happy about it. Don't know my time but don't really want to.
Then it took about 3.5 hours to get to the 800 which I was really excited for. Was in the second heat with barely any girls. Started out more in the middleish. Then on the second lap my legs just felt so awesome I was able to pass a lot of girls. But that cedar girl got pretty good distance so I didn't catch her. And even tho I did pretty good placing wise I'm more upset about this race than the mile. I'm actually really disappointed in it. I got done and I was not very tired. I mean I was but I wasn't exhausted. I wasn't even as tired as I was after our 400's on Wednesday. Which means I didn't give my very best at all. Which sucks. And I know times were skewed cuz of the wind but my time was just so off of where I wanted to be. Disappointing. Good thing this is just the first one
