April 16, 2011 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: no wind but really hot

Comments:
This was also a great race for me. Warmed up with Dylan (who also pr'd today) and did stretching. It was really hot so I had hydrated really well.

The race went out really fast. Probably too fast for most in it. I was in about 4th or 5th when we came across the line in a 64 low. The second lap was a lot slower and it bunched the group back up. Meeker made a strong move on the outside. Went through in a 2:12. Pace picked up again in the 3rd lap, Ross and Jarimillo made huge move at 250, but I went right with them. Came through 1200 in 3:18. Made my move again at 400 and got to about the 200 before Andreas passed me going into the turn. I followed him and swung wide in the last 100. I finally had to use my full kick and within the last 10 meter I passed him for the win. I ran a 4:23.03. Two seconds off the school record.

This weekend has rocked, but I my watter bottle is still M.I.A. :(

Lila had a great battle in the 800. She made a great move to lead it with 400 but just couldn't hold it. Then she came back to run the 1600, I can't imagine doing that... it would kill me. Then after that she ran the 4X400. Talk about crazy. Rachael ran a 60 split for the 4x400, opening leg too. Dylan finally broke the 4:40 barrier... hopefully. We think he ran a 4:39. Nic won the 200. Meridian did amazing today!
