AM - 11 Hospital/AC. No one at Clyde's this morning, so I went to school and got a decent run in (but slow to start) followed up with the team run. (Kinvrara white 149.5) afternoon - 5 PV. Ran around a bit trying to warm up and run the meet. It is a fun meet - I kind of compare it to track kids playing track (our new blogging friend Cassidimus knows what I am talking about). I have been having a few good workouts lately, but the next level of speed in a 1600 race is a little scary. Went out strong and didn't even look at the watch. Wanted to try and drag a little out of Logan - 1:07. Trevor took the lead on the backstretch of the 2nd lap, but kind of slowed. Went through two in 2:18. Trevor had gapped me a little and the gap grew in the third. It was a pretty lame lap and Logan was gaining - I could tell 'cause his team was cheering a lot louder. I think we came through 3 around 3:32. Logan was passing, so I fought a little to hold him on the corner, but after he came by I just let him go. Then after about 5-10 secs I thought I should go and try to catch him. So I gave a good push heading into the final 200 and found some speed and went by with a good finish closing on Trevor to a 4:41. Kind of surprised myself... Now I wish I would have just stuck with Trevor a little more and gone sub 4:40. Cooled a bit after. |
