2 mile time trial on the track today. When I think back to last year where I didn't even run the time trial, today was way better. I started with the goal of just going sub 11, and getting a solid time, nothing ridiculous. I started out more carefully, towards the back of the pack, but as the run went on, I focused on moving up, and eventually moved to a decent position. First mile was around 5:21, which meant that I positive split a bunch, but in all honesty, it didn't feel like I was putting in 100% into the run. It felt very conservative, and smooth. Considering that though, I'm happy with my time. I haven't come into a cross season where I was in decent shape already, so things are looking up I think.
