1500M at Macalester. Wowza.
I got placed into the slow heat, which turned out to be a blessing for my over-confidence. But regardless, I thought "slow people, slow times, they will take it out slow" so I was out-front right away. Came through in 62-63 for the 400M. Settled in a bit next lap for a 2:09-2:10. Tried to make a push for the lead at 600M to go, but another guy went instead and I followed. Came through the 1200M at 3:15 and then I tried to kick. I was dead at this point and struggled to finish without tying up. Finished with a 4:13.08. Which, if I heard the 3:15 split right, would have made my last 300 meters a 58s, (= 77s 400M pace) EEEEEK.
Somewhat of a reality check that I am no where near as fit as I was before I got hurt. I didn't think I would lose this much in 4 weeks of off-time, but wow.
Ran into Colin at the race and cooled down with him. Also ran into everyone and their dog at the meet. Fucking MIAC/WIAC meets.
