Crazy good day of racing today! I was originally going to run the mile but at the last minute I put together a 4x4 team and decided to run the 800 and the 4x4. We ran a few miles before the meet to get some mileage in and then 2 miles to warm up for the 800. I was able to run the 800 in 2:13 which was a solid PR from the last time I ran. I was in the faster heat which made me a little nervous but it was definitely better that way. I was super tired after and just laid on the ground, then we had the genius idea to run the 2 mile to get some mileage in. We did it way slow which was nice but I was still super tired at the end. The 4x4 was immediately after that and I was anchoring. The people on my team ahead of me ran a 55, 57, and 57. When I got the baton we were in 2nd. Tanner Melior (who was supposed to be on my team) was out infront but I wasn't able to catch him. Lone Peaks team gained on me hard core and I was able to out kick him at the end to keep us in 2nd. My time was a 57 which was exactly what I was going for. I'm definitely way happy with how far my training has brought me and am looking forward to see what else I can do next week.
