5:30 pm - Race day. Today was a good day. We got to Maple Mountain High School at about 2. The weather was pretty chilly, about 45° so a lot colder than it's been in St. George. After just laying around for a couple hours us varsity guys went and warmed up 2 miles.
We got lined up and prayed and the race started. I got out pretty quick and the first mile was pretty good pace. I think around 5:15. The next mile I slowed down but not too much, I passed Matt and Kyler and Paul and just focuse on running. My mind was pretty empty this race. So that was good, I always race good when I forget about everything and just race. Starting the last mile I think the time was 10:55. The last mile I picked it up and passed like 5 people. I really finished strong today. I am happy with my race I just wish some of our guys could race how they should be but it's all about patient.
