Today was my favorite event, the 3200. I was pretty confident and went throught the same routine as yesterday, with Bob still playing his rythm in my ear. I started with a 1 mile warm up, then another right before. My plan was just to stay with the pack and take off on the 7th lap to win. Thats just what i did too. I kept right behind Jeff Leavitt of Dixie the whole time and was hardly breathing. Then i took off on the 7th and mad 50meters in one lap and then won by about 100 meters. I ran a faster second split, which i was looking for and also didn't kill myself, but ran a slow time and good race. Yea, another 1st place. Did a 1 mile warm up after.
About 2 hours later i ran the 800, this is not my race and I am not to good and hate this race. I with they had a 5000 in high school so i could run that instead. Anyways i ran a 1 mile warm up and got ready for the race. We took off and Goold ran a 56 first lap. I thought he would die so i stayed back, he didn't die though and neither did a Dixie kid and i didn't run to well. So i ended up in 3rd place with a 2:07. Overall a good race and i did all i could this meet so i felt good. Ran a 1 mile cool down after.
Man, are team lost by 2 points, we had a lot of ifs today and alot of people didn't step up to well. We were favored to win, but Pine View won because of their depth. Its okay will just dominate at state with are 8 man loyal team (pretty pathetic for a big school). I got frusturated and ran another 2 miles to clear the head and loosen up the legs, and quad. Are girls took first though with their small team, so that is good. This was a good track meet though and my quad only hurt a little. Now its time to get ready to take first at state in the 3200 and are team. |
