Today was okay. I warmed up with Jason, Shore, and Biz in the slough and then did continuous on the turf. We knew we needed to hit 8:44 or faster and win our heat to place so that was the goal. I got the stick in fourth from Biz and immediately passed a VH kid and some guy in a white t-shirt and started to chase the Grant guy. I got out in a 30 which was a bit slower than I wanted and I kept on the grind. I think I was around 61 my first leg and still the same distance behind the Grant kid. I tried to push the 3rd 200 but I guess I didn't go hard enough, I don't really know. I felt like I was closing in on the guy in the last 100 but he stayed the same distance from me I think. I ran ~2:07 and was not happy. What shows that I didn't go hard enough was that I didn't even puke, which happens when I race well. It is just so annoying because I KNOW I could have run four seconds or more faster than that. The meet got "canceled" and we hung out inside for a bit and I cooled down in the halls for a mile then went back outside to run my workout. I warmed up a mile to the slough with joe then he went to go finish my run and I did some leg swings and continuous before my loopz. It was cool out so I had on just compressions, a singlet, and a shirt over. I ran 5:14, 5:07, and 4:49 with 90 seconds of rest on each one. The last one I just let my rage from a poor race come out and crushed the last part. I cooled down a mile, went in to put on warm clothes and vent a little of my race frustration about my race to a friend, and then went outside to stretch. Stretched with Gold, hung out in the box, then went home with Powen and dropped the snack box at Mimi's. Feasted at home, luckily my mom called me out of 3rd. Conference dub, gonna get my first one
