Warmed up and saw the boys do well in the open. 3 miles. 

RACE-  I was in the back of my box, so I had trouble getting out.  I couldn't get my breathing under control and mentally something was just....off. Byron passed me early on and I just couldn't get myself to go.  I just felt so negative mentally.  I ended up finishing 6th on my team by time...which kinda sucks cause I wanted this to be my break through race and it turned out to be my break down race...Also, I have been doing so well in workouts lately I thought maybe this was it, but no.  I just need to work even harder these next couple of weeks to really get me in good shape mentally and physically for Foot Locker.  I know I haven't been close all season to these 'elite' guys, but I have been running workouts with Mike lately and he is elite in my opinion (I mean he almost beat Martinez at Southwest).  I think I just need to believe and GO.
