No morning run today, it felt good to sleep in. Dixie Invite in the afternoon, I ran the 1600 today. Well, I started to warm up with the guys and about a quarter mile out I realized that I didn't have the right shoes on (I was wearing my old Pegasuses to school and I forgot to change into my current trainers!), so we went back to the school and I got the right ones. My legs felt a little tired, and my hamstrings were still a little tight, but they felt better after the warm up. Anyways, they packed our heat and there was 3 runners per lane so that was pretty dumb, but I got out good both times (on the first one the kid next to me tripped). I didn't really want to lead though, so I let the Ogden guys take it out, but we were pretty slow through 400, 1:09-10 I think. We picked it up on the second lap, 2:16 (1:06-7), slow, but we were back on pace. I'm not sure what the split was for my third or fourth laps, but I think I finished pretty strong. I PRed by like .2 seconds, not as fast as I was hoping for, but still alright for the way things went out.
