The 3k wasn't until the end, so I was bored for most of the meet. I tried reading, but I kept getting distracted by races. Charlotte killed it in the 1500. Emma also ran the 1500 except it looked like she had a really bad asthma attack at the end of the race; worse than all the ones during cross. I could hear her breathing and see her shaking from the bleachers. I got really scared for her, but she seems to be okay now.
I started my 15 minute progressive warmup a little too early because I just wanted to do something. It ended up being fine, I just jogged around before getting checked in. I went out faster than usual when the race started. Mr.Hartshorne said my first mile was around 6 minutes. I know I slowed down after the first few laps but not by too much. I could probably get a solid time in the 1500 if I actually ran the first mile of the 3k in 6 minutes.
I thought the whole 3k was terrible. I didn't think that it could get much worse after running the 3k at the elmira dual, but it did. I guess it will just get worse every time I run faster. I ran 11:56 at the elmira dual and today I ran 11:39. Sometimes I think I could've gone faster and other times I don't, but I'm usually indecisive after races so I'll just see what happens in my next 3k. I ran alone for almost the whole race. I don't mind being by myself, but I'm curious to see if running with other girls helps or not.
I totally forgot how much my brother eats. I'm thinking about hiding some of my favorite foods in my room so he won't get to them. I think I'd actually do that tonight, but I'm concerned that the food would attract ants, so maybe I can find a place in the kitchen to hide things.
Tomorrow I think I might go on a really short run (like around 15 minutes) and then maybe go on a short bike ride too.
