Girls super meet at Davis today. I ran a little over a mile warm up, did drills and strides and raced the mile. I got out first and kept it the whole race. I was surprised one of the other girls didn't hang onto me in the race like she has in the past. My first lap was 74 and I felt like my stride was stuttered and it felt weird. I tried to push my second and third laps because I always slip up a lot. (both were 77) When I heard my 800 was 2:31, I knew I would be close to breaking 5. The last lap I was pushing hard into the wind and ran a 5:02. I felt so light headed and shaky after, but felt pretty good about my time. Best mile race I've had in a long time. I stretched, ran another 2 miles then raced the 2 mile. I was way more exhausted from the mile than I thought I would be. I had some really slow laps in the two mile, but won with a 11:07. Ha, before the end of the first lap one of my spikes was untied. I had some deja vu of my first 13 miler up Emigration Canyon with Bill, and knew I had to keep running even if my shoe was untied.... I am so happy about my mile and am excited to race at Pineview! Did my core.
