This meet was better than last time, but still not too great. The 4x8 was really aggravating. I kept trying to pass Leo Ledman, but he kept surging and not letting me. I ended up running on his right shoulder the entire race, which sapped me at the end so I couldn't outkick him. This isn't even the first time he's done this; once during outdoor we raced and he did the same thing, ruining my race (I think I ran a 2:12 or something).

Anyway, the open 8 started great, but the second half was weak. I went out in around 63, which is a good pace for me. But then the Greely runner I was sticking to surged a bit, and I lost contact. Having to run on my own, I sort of got too comfortable with the pace, and I settled to 35s. The good part is I had a good kick left over, so that could mean good things for later in the season. Also a good 4x2 anchor leg, around 25.5 is what I heard from Jorma.
