This was a pretty good race. We only went to half of school before going to Cedar and then waited all day for the 800 to start. I got my warm up in with all the 800 guys then went got checked in and down to the track. I was seeded 1st in my heat which was awesome since I started in lane 1. I started out pretty quick but controlled and ran about a 1:10 first lap but I didn't really try to pass anybody and just settled. The second lap I finally picked it up and caught up to the front pack in the first 200 but didn't really kick it in at all and they left me in the dust. Pretty good race and I tied my PR which was good. The legs felt pretty good but I just didn't feel really hydrated even though I thought I drank a ton of water. It was probably because I was sitting in the sun all day. |
