I ran very first in the meet, which was nice. I had time for 1.5 warm up including my strides. Once again I was trying to break 5, even if there was wind. I got out and my first lap was 73. I focused on pushing harder the second lap because that is where I usually slip. My 800 was 2:29 so it would be close. By the 600, a girl pushed up right behind me and I had to race. I was so scared she would pass me because I could hear her and see her shadow. I started kicking with 300 to go, and was pushing harder by the 200. I finished first, and with a 5:01. So close again. But I felt really good about my race- I pushed myself and fought to win. I ran 3.5 cool down with Tomy and Abigail. Then a group of us ran to Harmon's and back for another mile. I laid in the tent for a couple of hours until the 3200. The wind got worse and worse as the meet went on. I ran a 1.5 warm up and then raced the 3200. The wind was just ridiculous and my time was super slow but I finished first. I ran 2.5 cool down at the meet and another 4.5 at home to finish my mileage.
