mile shakeout run during class with sami and the girls. then did abs which is pretty much unheard of on race days lol. headed to pg and got warmed up for the mile and it was crazy windy. i prepped myself for the wind which was good mentally. took a lil while but finally got to the starting line. it was a rough start. lots of elbows but i got good enough placement within the first 200. not in the front though, im no windbreaker. next lap i knew i needed to speed it up, but i waited for another girl to take the lead and i followed her. wasn't as close to her as i wanted to be for the wind on the straightaway, but that gave me pretty good motivation to catch her in the next couple hundred meters. i was feeling super not tired still so i got her and she blocked the wind for me on the third lap. last lap i took off and lead till the last 100 when 2 girls caught me and beat me by like half a second, but my lil legs started to really feel the wind and man they were tired. overall, i was pretty happy with how i mentally raced it, and i felt like the effort was there, the wind just didn't quite help lol. did 2 mile cool down but decided not to go to richards house when the timp boys invited watson and i. had one more mile and Collin and Jake were the real mvps and ran it with me so shoutout to them for that and killin their races. watson ran the medley and my legs felt tight from sitting for a while so i did the half mile warm up with her. afterwards i got some quality cafe rio, so solid day (:
