kiwanas Park 3K (2 Miles) 00:10:42, Place overall: 1, Place in age division: 1 | | A.M. 4 miles in about 31:17. P.M. Ran a warmup of about 0.5, then did a few strides. Right from the gun, one kid went out really fast. So fast, that I was worried about getting dropped. Fortunately, after a half mile, he slowed down to a more sane pace. I rested behind him for 300 meters, then surged to take the lead. While I was resting, Grant caught up to us and when I pulled away, he followed me. I led until there was about 1200 to go, then let Grant take the lead for the hill. Not very nice of me, I know, but I was trying to win. With about 800 to go, I kicked and ended up winning in 10:42 by 7 seconds. I think that's a course record for recent years. Cooled down for about a mile and a half with some other kids.

Kiwanis Park 1500 (0.93 Miles) 00:04:55, Place overall: 1, Place in age division: 1 | | A.M. 4 miles in about 32:00. P.M. Went to Kiwanis park for a 1500 meter race. Warmed up about 0.5, and did a few strides. From the gun it was just me and Grant, who was determined to stick with me. Around 400 I went around a corner the long way and Grant passed me, conveniently taking the lead just before the big hill. I let Grant lead for 300 or so, then attempted to pass him and kick. He fought me for about 100, then started to drop back. I ended up winning in 4:55, by 8 seconds. Throughout the whole race, I felt like I wasn't effectively using my full leg strength. It was like I was locked into a certain pace, and no matter how hard I tried, I could not go faster. It's probably because I was running on grass. Cooled down about 1.5 with Grant, giving me a total of 7 for the day.

| | Ran up the canyon 3.5, then did 1.5 down in 7:52. First mile in 5:13, my fault. Then I paid for it in the last 800, getting a very painful 2:39. | | Add Comment |

| | Ran up the canyon a little ways past my usual turn around, then my dad paced me two miles down the canyon in 10:37. It was hard. I kept wanting to stop. | | Comments(2) |

| | 8.5 miles today. Did 3x1000, one uphill in 3:27, and two down in 3:09 and 3:06 respectively. My Dad was doing 3 x one mile. I just ran the first 100's with him. This run left me feeling pretty pummeled. | | Comments(1) |
