AM - 3 miles easy. Same old.
Race - 7 miles. I ran the 1600, 800, and the Medley today. The 1600 was up first and I got into the fast heat which was nice. It was super windy for the whole meet so times weren't great (except for maybe the 100 meter). I got out quick and tucked in behind some guys so I didn't have to take the wind. I didn't stay with them like I should have though and so I really struggled the last 2 laps. Not sure of exact time but I think it was about 5:10. Overall, it was a decent race. Definitely off of where I would like to be but a good place to start. The 800 was next and since the meet was going really slow they crammed everybody in one heat. I felt like I got out fairly quick but so did everybody else. I stayed relaxed and got around most of them on the second lap. Not sure of time but I felt like I gave a very good push. Right after the 800, our Medley team was missing their 400 guy so I hopped in and did it. Good push but not super fast. All I did was barely hold onto the lead for the team. Some fun races today. Not my best but I haven't put in any good workouts lately so I definitely need to work on that.
