I am happy with how this race went. I kept with the top group through the mile mark and beyond there, but I started losing people somewhere right in the middle. with 800 to go, I realized that I didn't feel bad about not being with kelsey and erica, because they were simply running a different pace, but I felt bad about dropping off of dana, lydia, and the Allegheny girl. I REALLY wanted to get that Allegheny girl. So I took off to get past her and then really kept the pace up for the remainder of that 800. finished about 15 seconds behind Erica I think. I was really proud of that last half mile, because I held up really well mentally when I could just as easily have given up on it.
I'm really, REALLY excited at how our team finished!!! It's a huge deal to score 15 points at any race, even if that Allegheny girl was our only real competition up front. Still, it's a huge deal that all 5 of us got her, and this bodes very well for future races. Great job to the freshmen!!!!
was really nice to see my family afterward. and my mom brought cookies I could eat :)
