Really great day! Went and checked out Hollywood and stuff then headed to the race. Got there. Found so people that I knew from great oaks and talked to them, then went and watched some invitational races. Then warmed up and got ready. Went to the track and bang! We get started, I'm in last place cuz I slip at the start cuz I didn't have spikes in. Tried to move up many times either on the inside but it wasn't moving or on the outside of lane 3 but that wasn't working cuz people kept shoving me. Came through near the back just holding on at the mile with a 4:39. Then the leader started going so I followed and was able to move up near them and get around the crowd. Then I stuck til 2 laps left. Then with 2 laps to go I went for it. Took the lead, jamison stuck next to me, and we worked together to pull away, jamison faded a bit but I was going, went til final hundred and kicked but a guy outkicked me cuz my legs tightened up really bad. But I was happy with the 22 second PR. Shoutout to all the people who raced at arcadia this weekend |
