4 easy miles. Tapering for the 1500 tomorrow. Stevie ran the 3000 today. He said he was really hot. He didn't run very well, 14:12 with 3 laps slower than 2:00. His foot has been hurting lately but he said that wasn't the problem.

I ran the 1500 today. I was in heat 2 of 4. With heat 4 being the fastest. I was hoping I could break 4:30. Everybody started super fast. They ran about 46 seconds for the first 300 meters. I ran 52 for the first 300, so i was in dead last. After about 400 meters everybody slowed down a lot, but I kept running the same pace. Dad told me to move through the pack and not get slowed down by anyone. In the next lap I moved from last place all the way to first place. With one lap to go I started kicking, then my croc slipped off a little, but I was able to get it back on. That's the first time a croc has fallen off during a race. Two of the guys behind me were better kickers than me. So i got third place. I ran 70 for the last lap. My time was 4:26.83. That's a 12 second PR! I'm really happy I could run it. Afterwards my legs were super tired. My splits were 52.8, 71.7, 71.6, and 70.6. Almost perfectly even. 4:26 converts to about 9:31 for the 3000. I'm stronger in the 3000 than in the 1500 so hopefully I can go sub 9:30 on Saturday. JoJo and William also had good races JoJo ran 4:45 and William ran 5:20..

6 easy miles. Legs were feel much better. MoMo and Stevie ran the 1500 today. MoMo got 13th place with 5:34. Just 7 seconds away from 8th place(top 8 are All American). He could've run faster but he got stuck behind people and wasn't passing enough. Stevie did better than on Monday. He got 5:47.

I ran the 3000 at the AAU Junior Olumpics. I was in heat 2 of 3. It was really hot during my race. Almost 90°.  I started out in 37 for the first 200. As usual everyone started out ridiculously fast. So 37 seconds put me in last place.  I started making my way through the pack. A little before 800 I got boxed in. I moved into the 4th lane and made a strong surge to move into first place. After that I was never passed. I ran the next couple laps in about 78's and 79's.  After that the heat started getting to me and I slowed down to 82's. The 5th and 6th laps were really hard. I ran 86 from 2200 to 2600. My last lap was good. I ran 78. My time was 9:54.36, just barely missed my PR. But a good result for the conditions. I got 15th place overall and first in my heat. I'm very happy with my place. I was racing against 16 year olds, so hopefully next year I can get top 8. I got interviewed afterwards by milesplit. It was my first interview ever so that was exciting. William won his heat in 11:10 and JoJo ran 10:27.
