I thought this race was really fun, although we probably didnt do as good as we could have done as a team. The main thing i was focusing on today was worrying about my own race. I was suprised that i beat Ryan and Nick. but anyways..

1st mile: I think we could have started out a little bit faster because i was stuck behind so many people that i had to end up passing later. On the back side of the pond i spent the whole time trying to pass people. I was really confused because Sam was infront of me but Nick and Ryan were behind me... But i remembered I needed to worry about my own race, not theres. So I kept passing people. When i hit the sand my shoe came untied for the whole rest of the race, that kinda sucked but OH WELL! my first mile split was a 5:20 something.

2nd mile: Pretty cool bean like, I passed alot of people. on the hill i went up pretty strong. Nick came up beside me on the way down, but i ended up leaving him on the hairpin turn. I kept passing people.

3rd mile: I dont even know how to explain this mile accept the last stretch of the race. After the hairpin turn for the second time I was infront of my pack and there was a pretty large gap between me and the next person, I finished strong and no one passed me! I got a 17:53 which is a big improvement from my 20:25 last year :)

Stayed at Bob firman and cheered for everyone until 6...
