Ran the 1500 meter today. I didn't really have any goals for the race, I just ran without worrying about pace or place or anything. My first lap was 1:23, then 1:35, 1:34, and 1:08(300m). My total time was 5:42 which is the fastest I've done a 1500 so far this year. Then I did the 800. By this time it was really, really hot! All I wanted to do was break 3 minutes. I started the first lap and at about 200 meters into it I realized McKenzie Snyder wasn't that far ahead, and if I picked it up a little bit I could catch up to her. I caught up to her and passed her 350 meters into the race. My first lap was in 1:13. I was able to hold her off till about 250 meters to go. Then my legs completely died, and my total time was 2:40 so my second lap was a 1:22. I felt good about both races ecspecially since I ran 11 seconds faster in both the 1500 and the 800. My legs are still very sore from the hike. |
