Since we had this meet today, I decided not to get up at 4:30 am to run before me and Jake did our thing. Raced this afternoon! The wind was REALLY bad. I had a lot of fun watching the other races before mine. I think my highlight was listening to Darian and her mom talk to each other--they were hilarious! Watching Brigham do the high jump was a blast, too. Good memories. They combined the Girls and Boys for the 3200. When we first started out, there was this boy running right at my hip and I couldn't decide if he was messing around, or trying to be nice and break the wind for me. Either way, I was bugged. I didn't want extra help or to have someone run with me as a joke. But two laps into the race, he got right behind me and started drafting off of me. I realized that this kid was really out of breath--he was actually trying! When I heard how hard he was breathing, I knew that I could drop him, so I did. It always feels good to chick someone! I probably ruined the kid's whole day. His parents were taking pictures, so he'll always have the memory of trying to draft off of a girl. I also beat one of the boys from our team. The time wasn't fast, but I'm okay with it because of the wind. |
