AAAHHHH!! I'm so so glad I did it! I had no idea what I had in me!! The whole race i felt easy breezy fast but I never even knew where the mile, twomile, or threemile marks were so I had NO clue what my splits were...but the whole time, even from when the gun went off, I kind of knew it was a PR kinda day. I didn't really know the course, I was sans most of the regular GDS varsity girls, but it just felt right. I passed SO many people, and I could hear Anthony's words as I did: "each time you pass someone, you suck out a little bit of their soul and it gives you strength..." I definitely felt like that :) the hills hardly happened, except the downhills, when I left people to eat my dust...i never had a moment where I wasn't calling on my body to go hard...it just kept responding! I am so tickled with how it felt to push, to empty the tank, just like Adam recommended I do. What a wonderful sport!!!
and OH HEY 40 SECOND PR over my time at championships (which was a PR too!)!! I realized that I've shaved off a minute and 15 seconds from my pr from last season! WOO HOOO!!!!
