I can't believe my 3rd year of cross country has come and gone! It's been such an adventure so far. It was so tough transitioning to a completly different team but now I am blessed with two wonderful teams to cheer me on. First of all, you girls did amazing! I am so proud of you guys! And boys, I'm sorry you didn't get state but do it next year:)
First mile: I felt pretty darn good! We'd run this course 2-3 times before districts so I knew exactly where we were, and about 800 meters in I was feeling perfect. When I crossed the one mile line and saw my time was 7:01 I was blown away!
Second mile: Felt pretty steady still, lots of mucus in my throat so tha was very annoying. My legs were starting to ache but I was still pushing it. Crossed the 2nd mile line and I was at exactly 15:00 so I knew I had to keep up the pace to get where i wanted.
Third mile: Didn't feel so hot. I was struggling. But I still pushed it, a lot. Hahah I spat and it landed on my face so i wiped it off with my hand; the joys of being a runner:P
I got to the pavement and just focused on running with passion because this was it for the year. I didn't catch the Boise girl in front of me, but I managed to barely keep off about 3 girls.
I'm happy with the result in all:) its been a good season.
