Got to the meet and played some cards. Warmed up then headed to the check in area. Got on the line, me and Mario were in the same heat. Went off and I got a really good start right up near the front. Felt good but about 200m in my legs started to get real heavy and they were like that for pretty much the whole race. Pushed really hard to keep up with the leaders but I still fell off, threw in some surges but I'm not sure how much good that did. Last lap gave it all I had and had a good finish. It was definitely a solid race and I was really focused and into it the whole time so I'm happy. Also the weather was fantastic which is always a plus. Afterwards took a supercold ice bath and ate my weight in pasta. Kept the mileage extra super low to rest up my legs for the 3200 so we'll see how that goes. |
