3 in the am.

Track workout in the afternoon. Some pretty short but really quick repeats. Pretty nice weather at the start but it got a bit chilly toward the end. Around 7 total for the workout I think.

3 in the morning.

5 miles on a trail out off of Red Hills Parkway by Dixie Rock. Felt pretty good. Weather was nice for most of the run, but a little cold at the end like yesterday.

3 easy in the morning.

4 easy in the afternoon out past Hidden Valley. Did some starts afterwards, my Pegasus have no traction on the track when trying to start fast! Slipped pretty good on the 3rd one, haha.

Race day, so we took the morning off. We all ran the mile today. We did our warm up and some strides and I felt pretty good. It wasn't a qualifying meet, so I figured no one was going to run for time, just place, so my plan was just to tuck in and try to stay on the inside for the first few laps without letting the leaders get too far ahead of me, then use my kick on the last lap. The gun wouldn't fire for like the first 3 times so it took a while to start the race. Well the race went out exactly how I thought it would, and I tucked into about 5th or 6th place, pretty slow through 400, 1:12, and 800, 2:22, then we started to pick it up as people tried to get into position for the final lap, not sure what the split was for that lap. Ike and Josh ended up getting just a little too far out of my reach and I didn't have enough race left to beat them. I should've moved up a little more on the third lap, because I think I would've won had I been a little closer with 300 left. Not sure on the time, but I think someone said around 4:35, I will update it though when I figure out the official time. Pretty fun race even if it was a little slow. I felt relaxed and smooth so that was good. 2 miles tempo-ish afterwards, nothing too fast, then a mile cool down. Good day, fun to get back into racing.

Ran the Dirty Hurty Half Marathon today. Pretty sweet race, the trails out there are awesome. They shuttled us down from Unity Park to the starting line at about 5:45, and the race didn't start until 6:30, so we had to freeze our b*tts off for a little bit. We started the race off pretty chill, we ran behind Coach Fielding and Coach Holt until we hit the single track and I took the lead because they were doing the 50k and 30k. I led the way through the entire single track section, which went until about 6 miles, then I had to stop and tie my shoe. Caught back up with Josh at about 7 miles and we started to pull away from everyone. We both grabbed a cup of water at the aid station at 7.4 miles and kept on going. I think I could've maybe taken a GU because I started to bonk a little later. I never really felt too bad though. I ran with Josh until about 8 miles then he started to pull away a little on the downhill. I was probably 100m behind him when we got back onto Old Highway 91 but the rest of the race was mostly uphill and he kept pulling away. I sort of struggled mentally and physically for the next few miles, but I shook it off and picked it up on the last one to finish strong. A lot of fun to switch things up with the guys. Great way to finish off the week and the quarter of school. It kind of got a little hectic with schoolwork last week, so it'll be nice to have this next week to relax. One more quarter of high school left, pretty crazy!
