AM - 2 miles. Foot was feeling pretty good and I did two today.
PM - 6 miles. Warmed up 1.5 miles, got my spikes on and my sticker, did some strides and got to the line.
Race - I made sure I got out quick with Andrew so I wouldn't have to play catch up the whole race. I stuck with him that first lap but as I pushed up the hill, I took the lead. The second lap, I just went crazy and pushed pretty freakin hard to catch Colton. I caught him pretty fast and I took the lead on him about a quarter through the lap. I held that lead on Andrew and Colton until just before the hill. By this time, I was dead and as Andrew passed me, I started to give up. Andrew gained a good size lead on me and Colton also put a nice gap on me by the finish. Still need to work on keeping the beginning under control so I can run a little better at the end. Super happy, nonetheless, with my time and place and everything. 15 second PR for me. Our Top 4 JV guys had a 7 to 8 second spread and 17 to 18 second including that fifth guy so that was pretty legit.
