3pm - Decent racing today
Started out with the 1600m, first event. Me, Dallin, Andrew, Cam, and Preston went on a 2 mile warm up. It was really boiling today. Normal prerace routine, doing strides and stuff. I soaked my head before. When the race started I got right out into the lead. I just went for a good pace not to quick. It ended up being pretty quick though at 1:03. I tried to kept that pace going but it just didn't happen. The heat messed with my head today and I really didn't have a great mental race. My middle laps were both like 1:12. I lost my lead on the third lap but going into the fourth lap I heard the split was like 3:27 and that kinda woke me up as I thought, "I could still qualify for state." I gave a surge there and had a decent last lap; I passed 2 guys and barely missed qualifying for state. I felt pretty hammered afterwards and felt really lightheaded for a while. I felt better later and went for a 2 mile cooldown with Jake.
Later was the medly relay, which I was the anchor in. Me and Abel did a mile warm up. Our team was Colton, Wayne, Abel, and me. I was totally exausted but my team set me up great and I couldn't let them down so I dug in and got a 2:04. We qualified by about .3 seconds. So now I am officially going to state and it feels good. I cooled down a mile. My foot felt pretty sore on my cooldown. Good day.
