8 miles total with a 4 mile tempo run. William did the first 3 miles. Dad, JoJo, Chad, and I ran the full 4, Benjamin had a 3 minute handicap. Our first mile was 6:04, I felt pretty good. We sped up a bit and ran 5:56 for the next mile and had 12:00 at 2 miles. My right lung started hurting for some reason in the 2nd mile, so I stopped breathing so hard and it went away. Our next mile was 5:53. William stopped after that. He ran pretty well. Benjamin caught us a little before 3 miles. JoJo's knee started hurting in the fourth mile so we slowed down to around 93,94's. At around 800 to go Dad, Chad and I picked up the pace. I'm not sure what our next 400 was. In the last 400 meters I ran 81 and pulled away from Chad and Dad. My total time was 23:45. Dad and Chad were maybe 5 seconds behind. Benjamin ran a little under 20:00. I felt strong in the last 400.
