Not great meet today at detweiller. I gotta say my approach to the meet was pretty good. I felt relaxed in the warmup and strides. During the race, though, I felt controlled during the first start, but I looked at the time during what I thought was the half mile mark, so I sped up and got out at 5:16 for the first mile. Next mile wasn’t too bad, the triangle didn’t really have an impact on me as I moved up a bit, but I fell apart in the last mile. So many people passed me and I couldn’t really keep myself together and ended up placing 311th with a time of 16:50. I felt really disappointed, but in the end, you either win or you learn. I learned to not stress about time that much and just focus on placement. Running conservatively connects well with moving up in a race.

Good meet today. Conditions were not ideal, but I used my course knowledge to pass some people. Got a big pr and hung on to a group. Overall, I placed 121st, which isn’t really good, but I shouldnt overanalyze it. It was really hot and humid, and I can’t really do anything about it. Otherwise I thought I did pretty well today and tactically went up the hills and did a lot better than last year. You don’t slay the dragon at the tail, instead go for the head.
