{St Albans Meet}

April 12, 2017 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: Felt warmer than it should've

Comments:
Ran the mile and the 8. I felt super dehydrated before the mile despite having had a ton of water for the rest of the day.
Lap 1: 1:36; felt good, stayed with Lucia in a little pack behind Maddi, Isabel, Ana, and Sarah.
Lap 2: 1:39 (3:15); also tried to stay right behind Lucia and other NCS girl
Lap 3: 1:46?? (5:01??):This lap was not good. I lost a lot of motivation and lost a lot of distance on Lucia and the NCS girl
Lap 4: 1:39 (6:40): I think I started kicking a little bit too late because a girl passed me about 20m from the line.
This is the exact same time I ran last year, so I'm a little disappoitned (also I ran a similar time a couple of weeks ago, and around this ballpark for a while) but I know the conditions weren't great.
Had about half an hour before the 800. It was probably the weirdest race I've ever been in. I felt really good the first lap (1:28) and tried to speed up but my legs just wouldn't go. I also forgot about all the chaos and the start and had to go on the outside lane to pass which was annoying. A little after halfway through my second lap, Simone (who was the next runner pretty far ahead of me) stopped and I coulc call out her name, which made me realize I should be kicking harder. So I did and today was a PR :) (incredibly surprised because I didn't feel like I was working SUPER hard but I'll take it).
