Quad meet today. 1600 I got out well, in second right behind Chesnut. Stayed on his back until the 800, then I passed for the lead, then immediately Heston came flying by. I let chesnut get ahead again and at 1000m Heston walks off the track. It threw me off and I let chesnut slip. I got passed by a few people in the last 200, just couldn't get moving, I was being dumb. Got 4:5x, Should have ran smarter. In the medley our sprinters did awful, it was peculiar, I got the baton with Salem about 75m ahead. I closed that gap crazy quickly, by the 400 I was on his heels. His team was cheering for him like crazy and he kicked pretty good, couldn't quite get him. My dad had me at 2:11, with a 60 first lap. Did the 3200 about 20 minutes later. Chesnut went ham and came in at a 68 first lap, his teammate hit 72. I hit 76 and started to reel them in. Kedric was right on my back but I shook him off at 800m. I passed the Salem kid around here and caught chesnut at about 1200. He sped up once I got on him. We hit the 1600 at 5:18, it didnt feel too hard but I was tired from everything else. At about 2000 I took the lead and chesnut surged not too long after and I didn't go with him when he passed me. Both of my open races I wasted energy passing chesnut at a trivial point and fell off because of it. I should have stuck on him and battled the last 200 out instead. Anyway wind really picked up here and some guys weren't adamant about being lapped so second mile was embarrassingly slower. 10:59 for second, 9 seconds behind chesnut, 15 seconds from third. Did a long cooldown with Riley after, she's pretty cool. And should make a blog. More of a workout today but still I'm stressed about it, I probs shouldn't be.
