AM- 3 miles E.

PM- RACE (3200m) I decided today to do something I haven't done all season (but I think I should've done it earlier...oh well). I decided to run the first half just a little slower and kick the last mile. So, coach told me to stay right on chris hansen because he usually runs smart and the way I wanted, but he took out way fast and was right on mike's shoulder. So I just tucked in upper-mid-pack. Chris slowly came back to where I was and I just stuck on his shoulder. 1st mile- 4:59. Perfect! Exactly what I wanted. I took off the 5th lap and I caught a ton of people! I was feeling so good and my legs felt like they could run this pace forever! Then, Hunter Chamberlain and Josh Thatcher came up and started to kick ahead of me and I went with Hunter for a bit but then for some reason I chose to stick with Josh while Hunter caught the group ahead of us. Really that was my only mistake this race...not going with Hunter. Josh gained a little gap in the 6th lap but only a couple of feet. 800m to go I was feeling good but for some reason I didn't go for my kick, but I was going faster just not kicking. Last lap I really wanted state so I dug deep and caught Josh because I thought he'd be close. I outsprinted him at the end barely. He is fast for how young he is.

I ended up getting 10:06. The race was really slow (mike got a 9:45 about 10-15 seconds slower than usual) so I was bummed I didn't get state. I felt like I raced it smarter than I ever have before! I think I'm going to do half-marathons this summer because I can hold paces longer and more effectively than speed. But it was not my best season, but I'm glad I got to be a part of the team and at least end on a positive note. I really pulled my times back down after I let them slip. I love my team so much and can't wait to hear about them dominating next year!
