PINE VIEW INVITE FINALLY. Best time of the year except we had way less people this year cause of the date change but oh well. I woke up feeling tired in my legs, we had a hard week this week, but I was determined to state qualify so I didn't let it bother me. I just stayed out of the sun and chilled all day. We warmed up around a bit and did our strides and everything else. Then we got to the line and I was seeded 4th, but it wasn't my actual fastest time but that's okay. I decided just to sick with whitney from cedar and this supposedly fast girl from skyline (except she didn't even place so it's good I didn't go with her). We got out and I felt good, I wanted a 2:20 and our first 200 was one second slow. I didn't let that bother me and I just kept going with that group. We were way slow at the 400 but my head wasn't really clear so I couldn't remember my split I wanted for that so I didn't even know lol. At about 300 to go Whitney pulled away and I think a park city girl kind of went with her. I wasn't paying enough attention to know they pulled away and so it never even crossed my mind to go with them. My finish was real good for me cause I generally lag but I passed 2 people in the last 100 so that's good. Overall it was a super duper slow race for everyone involved. No one state qualified and probably no one pr'd lol. I guess no one has that kind of speed in their legs at this point but once we get the speed workouts going we're gonna kill it. And I got a medal and that was the goal so pretty sick. I wasn't running this fast at pv invite last year and I still state qualified so I'm not worried. Overall super solid meet. We had loads of qualifiers and shoutout to rylee cause she is a complete beast.
