MIAA Conference meet in Warrensburg, MO! I ran the 5k today and will run the 3k tomorrow. I woke up still not feeling 100% so I made sure to pack my Nebulizer. I felt decent on the jingle jog but I still wanted to take a breathing treatment from the nebulizer before the race, so I made sure I took one a little before the warm up (they always make me feel really jittery). It really opened me up and on the Warm up I felt great. The actual 5k was nuts but I knew going in that the UCM guys were trying to use as little effort as possible so they could double successfully, so I basically stuck on them through the whole race, and I think I may have made them work harder than they wanted to. I did not feel good or smooth at all (but it def helped that Eddie was constantly on my ass to stay relaxed) and I was shot with 12 laps to go. They were basically dragging me around the track like a dead carcass tied to a string...and eventually broke away from me with a few laps to go. I still managed to increase the pace a little bit to place 3rd overall and run a PR,provisional qualifying time, and school record 14:44.73. It was not pretty but I was thoroughly pleased to say the least, especially since I was not 100%. That track tore the crap out of my feet.
