Today was by far the best race of my life. We got ther at about three and it was freezing so Walton, Marc, and I went down into the basement of the school to wait for the two hours it was before our race. It was pretty fun, We found some huge speakers the football locker room so we were blasting some dodos. Walton lit some incencse and I think one of the AF guys thought he was smoking weed. When the girls varsity race started we went and warmed up then headed to the line. It was pretty cold, but not nearly as cold as when we got there and there was a decent wind coming at you down the home straight.

The race went off and I went out and through the first 800m worked into a good position right with Mike, Marc, & Jon. We just kept a good pace through the first mile where we came through at 5:18. On the loop around the big field by the other school that group kind of got away from me and I just tried to not let anyone pass me. I came through the second mile in 10:38 and moved up to pass Jon and get in right with these to Davis kids I just tried to hang on to them the whole last mile and eventually we caught Marc. Nut with 200m to go all three of them beat me. i came across in 15:45 though which is almost a 30 second PR! We put 6 runners in before Binghams fifth but they ended up beating us by 4 points. We did get Davis though!

It was a pretty cold day. Great race. A PR is always great. You have a huge upside and a lot to look forward to in getting even faster. I just happened to be subbing at the school that day and was glad to get to see the races. Thanks for the report. I'll see you at state, hope you continue to improve.
