AM todays time trial was a good experience for me it had its ups and downs but it was still good. As every race has different things happening whether good or bad it is good to know both. One of my downs today was my legs, they have been extremely sore for a couple days and it hurts just at a slow jog. One of my ups was that I was so determined to do good that my pain wouldnt stop me from reaching that goal. Once the race started I stuck with Cam for the first lap then on the second he started to pull ahead and that's when I started to think negative. I was thinking things like whatever, what's the point, and it would be easier to just slow down. Soon I realized what I was saying and I got mad at myself and forced myself to go faster, so I started speeding up and closing the gap between me and who was ahead. Then I realized that I wasnt to far behind the older guys who I wasnt expecting to be even close to. My time was 12:15 and I didnt really know what to expect for my time and I think it was a good time. I am also pleased with my placing in the race and I hope that I can work hard enough to run varsity at least once this year. Been feeling sick since this morning so decided to do afternoon run on friday. |
