First mile I have done in nearly 6 years. The last time I ran a track mile was my last meet of H.S. I ran a 5:06 and died. I was pretty happy with my time today. I must say that I am not used to moving at those speeds but it was a fun race. The track there was made out of wood and it felt like I was going to fall off the inside. One girl actually did do that during a 400 and slipped. Fortunately none of us fell. I can't remember too much of it actually. We went 8 laps. Ollie was up ahead and then I caught up to him and we finished at about the same time. I felt like my esophagus had burned up though. It's always easy to say, "I could have gone faster," because we don't remember pain very well when it comes to running. I don't at least. I can only think of how cool it was that we were going that fast! It was a good race though. PR in the mile. I think I prefer the longer distances though. |
