It was a long hot day between Rob's class and sitting at the meet so I was just trying to conserve energy and stay cool. I did a normal warmup, laid down for a few minutes and then started to really get ready. My ankles were feeling it a little along with my hamstrings and IT band.
I was like 12th position because Buhrley entered my time trial time. Stockton Smith and Logan Mckay went out way hard so I was in third leading the huge group through the first lap. We were like 71 or 72. I didn't want to do all the work so I waited for Kimball and Colton to come up and take it so I could sit behind them. I sat behind them but we ended up running the next three laps in 77s according to Coach Talley. We were like 5:03 at 1600. Colton especially kinda started to move and the Davis pack went and I was able to respond with them. Kimball started dying off big time and I was just keeping on Colton. I worked on just focusing on each lap which helped. I ran a good last lap which was good. Negative second mile so that was good. I was really happy with how I cometed. I was hoping for a faster time but Logan Mckay won it in like 9:50, so it was a slower weird race.
I need to run a faster first mile because I know I can hang on. I talked to some people and then cooled down. I did some of it with Kendall Thompson from Clearfield. I talked with Josh Ward after too.
