Splits -- 5:03, 5:19 (10:22), 5:23 (15:45), 5:18 (21:03), 5:00 (.97mile) - 26:03. 68th overall, 11th Div.III; team place 14th overall, 2nd Div. III
CD w/ Chris Kelly, running around everywhere during and between subsequent races
we got out the 1st mile faster than the planned 5:10, but our positioning was fine, and it was a net downhill from the start to the first mile marker. which also explains Mile 2 net uphill in 5:20 even though we didn't drop the effort much. crossed Mile 3 w/ Chris & Robert, and I began my attempt to close on what we thought was Oberlin's 2nd guy (though it was really their 3rd), had a good 4th mile but didn't end up closing the gap. :14 1-4 split, :40 second 1-5 split, 1:07 1-7 split... though we have the capability to turn that into a :15 1-5 split and <:30 1-7 split.
I'm alright with this race considering I didn't take a down week. hopefully the mileage over the next 7 weeks is enough to move from 11th in Ohio Div.III to 35th in the nation.
