Ran at OWU today. The weather was nice. Almost perfect temps and no wind across the board.
Ran 1500 and 800 today again. No steeple. Went much better.
1500
Before the race CaochL told me a Grogan to not worry about the win so much but to make sure the pace was honest early and just go for a time. Got out well I felt that the pace was good. Came through in like 63, then felt the pace slowing going into the half. There in like 2:08 ish. Took the lead at that point and was able to bring the pace back down 3rd lap was like 63 again. Tried to race the last 300. Moved with 250 to go or so but the guy I had been trading the lead with got me coming down the stretch. Thats fine. If I'd have sat like I like to I get him every time. And I haven't really been working on the kick at all lately. Was happy with it though. First time sub 4.
3:58.56
800
I've decided this race is too short for me. Even against people that are doubling I get demolished by people that I can roll in the 15 or the mile. Example Shane Brandt of OWU: he ran like 4 flat last week and I beat him at All-Ohio indoors in the mile after running the DMR but he stomped me in the 8 today. I felt I got out okay I just don't have it to finish. My last 200 is pretty much the same for every distance I run.
Good day overall. I did what I needed to do. I have a time that should get me into the confrence 1500 fast heat which will keep people guessing about what I'm gonna run there.
