Weather: Rain

Comments:
Got thrown into the 4x8 a little bit after the meet started. Unfortunately, as soon as the first races started to go off, the rain began as well.

4x800
Went out hard especially through the first 200 to catch the guy in front of me. Came through in ~61 and just tried to hold on as best I could. Felt like I could have run a lot faster, but on the second lap, everything tightened up because it was so freaking cold. Didn't help that Frank butchered the hand off and took it standing still. Wasn't necessarily dead, just couldn't open up enough in the last 150 to kick.

3200
Felt good about the race coming into it. Weather still sucked but just wanted to stick nose in it and see what I could do. Started raining pretty hard again as soon as we got to the line, and was already freezing. Tried to stick with the pack, but just didn't have it like usual. Miserable race. Cold, wet, and slow.
