This race went pretty good! The varsity girls and i ran a couple miles warm up and my shin wasnt bugging me at all so i thought it would be a great race. After waiting forever to start we finally started and i got stuck right in the back. But then i found Mascerem and followed her through all the girls to a better spot.
First lap was great and i was so happy cuz i felt no pain in my legs AT ALL! Then i caught up to ali and pushed with her through the second lap. The last lap I started to kick in on the downhill and ended up passing a couple girls! I felt like i had been going a ton faster and thought i would break 22! I didn't but i pr'd by a minute from this course from last year! I liked this course alot although half was a slow incline and the other half was a slow downhill. I always got passed on the uphill but then i would pass again on the downhill. The only thing that bugged me during the race was my breathing was super bad and i got a major sideache that i managed to ignore for most of it. But overall pretty good!
