well its been a while since i entered a log but today was our first meet so i tought i should.i got to bishop klly high school at about eleven oclock and waited til my race for about two hours. the suspence was torture! then finally it was time to start i got pumped and started the race. every went out very fast at the beggining so i didnt pass as many people as i was hoping to later on int he race. a liter bit after the first mile i got a side ache but pushed through it anyway, then i got a sliver or a thorn or some thing in the left side of my left foot wich jabbed me when i tilted my foot a little to far to that side, so that mesed up my focus a little bit. well at about a mile and a half into the race i was standing at sixth on our team and then out of the blue comes emily a sophmore from bishop kelly and works on trying to pass me and that ws some thing i didn't want so i stuck with her until i was third on our team! with about a half a mile left to go i realy started to feal exausted and let her get about 50 yards in front of me, but still tried to stay quick. we hit the track with 300 meters to go and i stated to pick it up a little but not to much because i realy didn't want to die on the last hundred meters and with about two hundred meters left i was passed by a fellow team mate who aperently did not want to get beat by a girl. we hit the hundred meter mark and i ran as fast as i posibly could and began to gain on the her and finished at the exact same time she did. my time was 19:16, my placing over all 26th, my placing on the team 4th, and how i did compared to pr 1min and 22sec behind:) something i did great today was going out quick and finishing quick. something i could improve on is my form and staying quick throughout the whole race even when i'm tierd. my goal for this race was to get close to my pr and i didnt do that but its ok:) i still had fun
