Shakeout in the morning. Getting stoked for this 5k UVU invite 5k. Warmed up and felt good, raced a few of the old high school nemeses so that was cool. Pretty windy on the backstretch, but I tried not to let it get to me since we train in crazy wind. Gun went off and got out well, into second behind nico from byu. Settled a little more bc he was gonna go rly fast. First mile in 5:02 ish, so very conservative. Stayed in a nice group with me, koy, Colton rimann, and Adam Jensen. 2 miles in 10:0x, I believe 10:05. Then my soreness caught up to me and I lost it mentally, sort of a choke. Finished in 16:10 I wanna say, not sure what the open time was but Scott Houle told me I altitude converted to a 15:48. It's a season best by 44 seconds. Pretty stoked on it, considering my many setbacks of freshman year. Next up is the 1500 at Pomona in california, gonna work on some speed so I can close that last mile of the 5k! Then I'll hit another 5k, either at bryan clay, mt sac, or long Beach. At this rate I should be under 15 by the end of the season. Cooled down a lot of miles. Optimistic for the season |
