Today we all ran a fast mile in St. George. It was warm, first we measured out a mile. We made marks every 100 meters using the red dirt/chalk. Then JoJo and I ran back to the start. Benjamin paced JoJo and I for the fast mile, William was spaced by Dad and had a 30 second headstart. I ran without the watch so I wouldn't panic or anything. Our first quarter was 76, I felt pretty good. The next one was 78. If I had been wearing a watch, I probably would have freaked out, but I felt like we had held the same pace. The third quarter was 77, this felt a bit harder, but I didn't feel terrible. In the last quarter we passed William and Benjamin said I could get the record if I kicked. When I started kicking JoJo fell back a little. My last quarter was 76. I ran 5:07, which is a 5 second PR. JoJo ran 5:10, just missed his record. I think my time was a bit faster than at home because of the lower elevation, but not by much. I haven't really improved very much since I was 11 in the mile. Almost 3 years ago I ran 5:16 on the track, but I can't seem to get much faster than that. My 5K has improved by almost a minute. I guess I still just have some mental block against the mile. Anyway, it was a good time, and I'm pretty happy with it.
