track meet started at 5. i was in the 3200 and an alternate for the 4*800. I wanted to get a good pr today and i was saying i wanted a 40 second pr even though i would have been happy with even a five second one. I warmed up and then brendan, austin, and i went to the line for the 3200. the race started and i got to an amzing position, around fifth place and comfortable. someone tripped and austing tripped over the guy who fell, so the race had to restart. we got too the line again, but i didnt get a very good start the second time. i got boxed in on the first lap to where i had to slow down a lot and then go out to about the 5th lane to get past the guys. brendan was with me but austin got ahead already. i kept going and catching up to people, and i thought i was going to get a pr. The last three laps for me were confusing because the people did not ring the last lap bell until the third guy already finished, which i was just getting to my last lap at that point, but i couldnt kick at all until then. i almost caught up to austin and i came in 6th or 7th, but im not sure because there was a lot of confusion. everyone had bad times for the most part. my time i think was 10:48, which i was very dissapointed in. matt moody was ticked beecause he didnt get to go to states because he came in third. after that, i just walked around a lot. the 4*800 team is going to states, so i am as an alternate. 2 for 2 in going to states!
