So we had a casual preseason relay meet and I was running a 12 in the DMR and an 8 30 minutes later in the SMR. The 1200 runners went first and I hung back for the first half and took the lead on the second half. I was careful not to run too hard because I wanted to run a decent 800 in the SMR, but I still ended up being pretty winded from a 3:28. We ended up coming in third.
In the SMR I was the anchor, but for some reason we were in the second heat so I was completely alone. That combined with the heaviness of my legs made me phone in a 2:13. We still came in second overall, but I do wish I could have been in the first heat so I could have known to go faster. As it was I had fun and got some racing under my belt going in the regular season. Next Friday I'll be running the open 8 probably, so that'll be the moment of truth.
