Comments:
i got about 8 and a half hours of sleep and then we went to manhatten after eating breakfast and playing advanced wars. we started our warmup a little early and went to to the bathrooms and then we went for a really long jog and stretched under a bridge. then we went at a speedy pace back because we were a little late. we went over to the line, did a long strider, then speed d. the gun went off and i went out uncomfortably fast, but didnt stay with our guys. one by one, i moved up, and when we got to the downhills i passed a ton of people. the last 800 (from the bridge) felt like the whole raace again though. it was the longest finish i have ever experienced and it seemed to never end. i finished in 80 (top 75 got medals), but my time was 13:59.97, so i finally was on the faster side of the minute for once. i was third for the team, and i guess i am fairly happy with my race, not breakout race at all, but not bad either.
