Well now is the time of year where we lay off of the heavy mileage and fast workouts and begin to taper for Region and State. Just 45 min today. We ran in the Jordan Gully all the way to Jordan High School and back.

Today we had a great track workout. We ran a 10 min warmup, ran an 800 M @ 2:24 with a 1 min rest and then 4 X 400 M @ 70 sec with a 30 sec rest. I felt strong and finished strong.

Had pretty good race today. I warmed up with a 2 mile run and strechted. Last night and this morning I was feeling kinda sick and so I was kinda worried about how the race was going to go.

When the gun went off everyone (as usual) took it out really fast and I had to tell meself to reel it in and to stick with your pace, so I started out in the back of the pack. My first lap was a 69 (which is really fast for being in the back) and I kinda slowed down on my second lap coming in at 2:19 (a 70 sec lap). From there I picked it up. When I hit the 600 M mark I began moving from pack to pack. Once I hit the 500 M mark I began my kick and I ran the last 400 M as hard as I could. I ended up catching up to the second pack, which I was happy about, but I didn't break 4:40 which was the ultimate goal.

Next time I want to keep the first lap the same, push it harder on the 2nd lap, run my 3rd lap strong, and leave no regrets on my 4th lap. Also I won't be sick.

After the race I went home, mowed some lawns, and ran 7 easy miles.
