So I took the SAT, ad that was super grueling. Ate lunch at Quizno's with President David (Great)White, changed the oil on the car, and took a nap for an hour. After that I woke up to go pick up Emma from the school, where I discovered Christian took tenth place with a 16:31, getting 1rst on the team with Mason and I not being present. I'm super proud of him, but I was admitedly a bit jealous. I then did a sick workout. Warm-up, then 16x400 repeats at the high school at goal race pace, with a 200m jog back to the start. I didn't stop moving after I finished a repeat I immediately started jogging, and as soon as I hit the starting line I was gone. There was about 250m slightly downhill for the repeat(on concrete) then a full 180 speed sappin' turn, then an 150m uphill. Some repeats were over a 400m, some were less, so rather than times I'll just put the mile paces.
1-5:05
2-5:07
3-5:10
4-5:04
5-5:28(Idiot)
6-5:15
7-4:54
8-5:10
9-5:12
10-5:02
11-5:10
12-4:59
13-5:13
14-5:08
15-5:08
16-4:48
Overall averaged 5:07 pace. Felt pretty good! Mile cooldown afterwards and some strides, then I realized how pointless strides were when I did four miles of them. Something I nooticed is when I drive my elbows back when I run, those were the repeats where I went really smoothly and at a good pace. Gotta remember that. Still aiming for a top 5 finish at region.
