Today was a track meet and I did the 3200 and the 1600 meters (2 miles and 1 mile) The 3200 was the first event and I was the only girl in my division to run. My shins started to hurt at the 2nd mile but I didn't stop but I kept going. My time was 14:43 I was 3 seconds off of my PR. Then, I had a 1 hour break and I was waiting to do the 1600. I kept up with the top girls which was me and 2 other people. The timers were yelling out our splits and the 800 time was 3:40 and the was a really slow 800 so I decided to drop the other girls and started to push a little bit harder. so I was leading for the last 2 laps! I was really happy because I never really led a race with other people in my division which was really awesome but in teh final sprit we had head wind and the second pace girl passed me but she wasn't the far ahead and the i heard peoplp cheering for the girl who was right behind me so I pushed it as hard as i could and i stayed ahead of her. My time was 6:46 which was again 3 seconds slower than my PR and I was happy about that because none of the others girls did the 3200 so doing that well in the 1600 after running 2 miles I was proud of what i did.
