No morning.
Dream mile in the afternoon. I didnt feel super ready for the 1600 all day, i tried really hard to be positive, but i kinda dreaded it. I warmed up slow with meskerem and told myself to just do my best and push hard. It was super windy and freezing and we had to run it backwards so that the wind wasnt as bad. We started and i was just going. i didnt want to kill the first part and just stayed with the pack and tried to hang on. On the 2nd lap i told myself that i was going to push the 3rd lap and got ready to pass the pack finishing up the 2nd lap. i passed the pack and found a lot of energy that i didnt know i had. i kept pushing and i felt super good. i pushed strong and on the last little bit i could feel jacey behind me and she passed me with like 120 meters left. i tried to push but i kinda settled even though i know i shouldnt have. she got me by less than a second. I ran a 5;31 with the crazy wind which is pretty great for me. one on my best 1600's on the track!
