i was pretty exited for this race cause i really wanted to bread 4:30 and i kept telling myself i would. i felt pretty good during the warm up but it was REALLY hot hot hot so after the warm up run we all just sat in ice till our race.
at the beginning i started in about 8th of 15 people and sat there for a 1:08 first lap, then the front three people started to make a move around the 600 and three people were right in front of me cutting me off completly. so by the time i made myself around them i had lost a lot of ground(1:08), now in 5th on the third lap i caught the 4th guy and hung behind him way too long which was my biggest downfall cause i fell way behind and third lap was a horrible 1:10. last lap was when i had to start pushing through the pain and i serged past 2 guys from the 300 left to 100 left which is a huge deal for me because i have'nt been doing that well with my kicks lately. last 50 meters no one was around me so i eased off just too much which made me loose the sub 4:30.
