Ran a mile warm up with BY and Decker. Got ready for the JV mile.
1600 I started bad and ended up in the back but I worked my way up to the front. By the second lap I was in about 4th. On the 3rd lap I took the lead and pushed hard. The 3rd lap is always hard and I knew I needed to gut it out. On the final lap I think I was at 3:46ish and coach was telling me to run a 1:14 just like practice. I tried hard to dig and kick to the finish. I held on to win and get a PR by 6 seconds, 5:03. I wanted to break 5 but I feel pretty happy because I know I put it all out there. Felt so dead and exhausted but we live for that.
I think these are right. 1:12 1:18 (2:30) 1:16 (3:46) 1:17
Thought about retiring and not running the 2 mile but talked with my Dad and decided to go for it.
3200 - My friend, sean the thrower, ran a couple laps and threw up. It was funny and he pulled me out way fast on the first lap. Tried to run strong for my last 2 miler and I won. I was pretty tired but ran ok. 11:22, I'll put splits in later.
Fun track meet, everyone did great. The girls tried hard, I feel bad they didn't get what they wanted but they are still so awesome. Boys won region! Some sweet races today.
Region champs
JV 1 and 2 mile champ : )
And now I am done with my high school racing career (besides wasatch this summer). It's been sweet. |
