While it was an early hour for a time trial, Tara agreed to try her 800 time trail at 8:30 to avoid the predicted 90s of the afternoon. I drove over and parked on Rockwood. quarter mile jog to the track and a few striders, but didn't want to hold things up as I was already late. Happily, my body responded with adrenaline as Tara (with the help of Jeff) set an aggressive pace. (See Bhagat 5-19-19 for full details.) She ran within a second of her all time PR and nearly 20 seconds faster than she had early in the spring! It was a great, focused, and aggressive race and a 2:48.7 official time. (I admit I was nearly flat out, but having her to focus on made my effort feel more controlled. Stretched and chatted briefly and then jogged back to the car, content to call it a day.
