I tried doing a fast mile again today. This time I chased Stevie, Dad, William, and MoMo. William had a 45 second headstart and the others had a minute. I tried to start out slower and not worry about the pace so much. I ran the first 800 in 2:25(73, 72) then I sped and ran 71, 70 for the last 800. I caught William with about 400 to go and the others with 200 left I think. My time was 4:46, that's a pretty big PR for me. I think that having someone to chase and starting out slower helped me. I also tried to be more mentally resilient so I think that helped me too. I'm glad that I was able to run under 4:50 and it was definitely a big confidence booster.
