AM - shakeout getting a feel for the course. It's different than last year, but only in the sense that the starting point was the halfway mark last time. Did 4x200m strides after that felt good, tried to make them controlled but the slowest one was 4:42 pace, whoops. Hope I feel this good tonight, it's been a long while since I raced.
PM - DNF. Went out too quick, felt flat from the gun. Did 400,300,200,150 after in 66, 49, 31, 21. Wanted to do more but I had to work. Really surprised the stuff hit the fan like that. I think it was a long time coming with training honestly. No long runs and barely any stuff longer than 1000m means a bad time in a longer race. Back to the lab. Would never forgive myself if I didn't congratulate Kenny on taking down Kedric and I! Glad to see my training partner have his time to shine.
