Comments:
headed down to the track and found that pictures hadn't started yet. then the fh girls decided they would run a mile tt during our practice time..bitches. the 800 went first & durst ran well, but leading the whole thing with the wind kinda screwed him & chou passed him in the last 25m. going into the 3k tt for the last few roster spots i didnt know what to expect because of peak mileage, hard wed workout, and 10mi yesterday. no one wanted to take the lead early so i figured id pay my dues & someone could take it later. went out in 72s for a few laps then rob took it over & slowed down a good amount to 75s. at the mile (4:58) adian and i both got around rob and i let aidan take it & he got the quarters down pretty good. i was content to let him take the wind until 500 to go where i made a move and held it through the line. big neg split; last 1400 was equivalent to 4:47ish mile. the whole race i felt really relaxed and even the last 500 i had more gears that i didnt need to tap. aidan and i then went on a cd and came back to do 10x200 (200 jog recov) at 35s with a few 34s in there somewhere. they felt effortless as well, once i got into the rhythm. longer cd back to the house.
aidan and i both ended up getting the 2 spots which is solid
