3 in la manana
drove up to cedar and it got really cloudy. I set up an umbrella shelter and read Poisonwood. The girls ran really well and I dropped some bombs right before the race. Everything felt really good. We did our prayer and call out in front and that needs to become a tradition. It was sooo cool.
Race: I got a good position in the middle of the front pack and just really focused on staying with the Krewmbulonimbus. I was number 7 and for the first mile and a half I was right with them. It may have been a little faster than I usually go but I think im going to adopt that strategy. I started to fall behind but kept it positive and just focused on tempo and having a good time. On the last mini-lap Nick Hill and Gillespe passed me. I just wore it and tried to keep up. On the last 100m Mitchell passed me. I didnt have all the kick I wanted but the grouping strategy benefited me in the long run. I fineshed right behind him with a 16:09, the exact time I got last year at the Cedar Invite.
5x30s Fartlek. I had runners high to the max and Im just so glad to be on varsity for SUU.
Greatful For: Brock, we passed each other on the track (because we were going different ways) and he yelled "you are number 7!" I knew that but it was so great to see that he was counting and was watching for me. He had a great race and says he feels great. He beat my first race time.
Song: Glycerin // Bush. one of my ALL TIME favorites.
