Race at the Oval today. I got a nice long warm up- 3 miles and 1 mile with speed changes. Luckily I was in the first heat so I could be done because there were a lot more people there than what I expected. I got out the first lap and ran a fast first lap. I slowed down too much my second and third laps because I was an idiot and expected the others to push up to me if I slowed down.... but they didn't. One girl passed me at the end of the third lap and I pushed to not be passed by anyone. My last lap was my fastest and I finished with a 5:09. My time was better than I thought I would run and I would surprised I could run that time. I am faster than what I think. I am mad I slowed down so much on my middle two laps. I ran 5 miles cool down with the team. I did my core at home. |
