Today was a pretty successful day for racing. I ran a 2:03 low split in the 4x800 and 4:34 in the mile. I was dead in the 4x400m lol.

For the 4x800, we beat the club record by 8 seconds running 8:14.46. I was the opening leg and split 2:03 low (splits were in a ladder of 29, 30, 31, 32). I made a move after 400 and unfortunately started to die with 100 to go, but I got the baton off to Lucas well. We also got 8th scoring-wise, so we scored the club a point.

The mile went out pretty slow. The track was very dry, but I started in the back and slowly worked my way up. At 800m, I took the lead and then fell back. I eventually did it again, but got out kicked in the last 200m to get 3rd in the heat. It was a solid, consistent time and I was pretty happy with the way it turned out.

The 4x400....... Lol I didn't get out fast at all and was just completely dead. Definitely my worse 4x400 split ever, but it was the Gunson 4x400, so we didn't give a single fuck.

Overall, my legs are dead, but I'd call that a successful day and a great end to the indoor season.
