First Indoor meet of the season! Wasn't sure how I was going to do because I hadn't been back training very long and not much speed. Warmed up a mile and a half outside then me, Stewart, Nathan, and Collin ran the 4x800 meter relay. I ran the third leg and started out very fast. Then I started to feel the effects and backed off a bit. Ran my last lap hard and finished in a 2:12, a new PR. I rested for a couple of hours and then warmed up once again with the guys, and Thomas and Riley were now there) this time for the mile. I was feeling tired from the 800 at the start but then settled into the pace. I was in about 6th or so, for the majority of the race. Thomas was pretty close to me. We came around the 800 in 2:29 and picked it up the last half. I had a solid kick and finished in 4:53, pretty good for the first one of the season. Ran a two mile cool down with Thomas, Maddy, Garek and some others on East.
