February 19, 2012 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
Legs weren't feeling so hot today after that 5k yesterday, but the ice bath I took last night was sufficiently cold to help me recover a good bit I think. It's all mental anyway, is what I have always been told. The team was doing great on the track today, but our struggles in the field came back to haunt us, as we were well behind Army by the time the 3k started. The race went out slower than I wanted, and after watching the winner of the slow heat (Tyler) run 8:31, I wanted a faster pace, so I took the lead. It felt good to lead Patriots for 5 laps, but Cody Rome took over at that point and pushed the pace pretty hard. I ended up having a good kick finally, and came home in 8:33.04. This was an incredible trip overall, indoor Patriots never disappoints that is for sure.
