I ran in a track meet at American Fork High today. I did the 800. It was almost 80 degrees, so I'm glad I didn't do the 3000. Bella, MiMi, MoMo, Stevie, William, Bonnie, and JoJo also ran. I was trying to run about 66 or 67 for the first lap and then not die too badly. The first lap was pretty good 68. I was behind Cole and another kid. In the third 200 I slowed down a lot and I was having a hard time breathing. I don't know what I had at 600. I got passed by 3 people, one was JoJo and I don't know. I started kicking after I got passed for the third time. I passed JoJo and one other kid but I couldn't catch the last kid. I got 2:23.39. It was okay, but I was a little disappointed. I felt like I couldn't push hard enough, my muscles weren't even hurting much after the race. Here are the results: https://usatfutahyouth.weebly.com/uploads/6/5/6/7/6567024/may_1st_results2.pdf. In the evening I added a mile. I wanted to see how tired I really was so I did the last half mile as fast as I could. I ran 77 for the first 400 and 73 for the last. So I still had a lot in me. Next time I'm going to try to really give it all I got.
