Warmed up 2 miles before my race. I got out good, they did the alley start again which was good, but I got sort of boxed in on the backstretch. Towards the end of the first lap I just decided to go for it, so I surged to the front and basically just kicked from there. With 200 left I felt Nephi coming up on me, so I made another surge and was able to hold him off and got my first varsity meet win ever so that was awesome. Then I anchored our 4x4 team and we won by a hair! Pretty awesome weekend, got some PRs and had a lot of fun!
