Did the freedom run today in Provo. I got to the race and realized I had forgotten my bib and chip, so I didn't get an official time or trophy. The race started and I got out well. I just tucked in with the front pack and Jamison for the first mile. The front few guys started pulling away from Jamison and I when we hit the parade route, and when we hit about 2.5 Jamison dropped off hard and I was by myself for a while. I didn't have a watch to get my splits but they were way too fast the first 5k and I slowed down big time. Going in to mile four I was struggling, but then another high school kid passed me and I decided to just try and hang on to him. He had about twenty feet on me at one point, but I passed him with about 800 to go and tried to kick from about 600 out. I thought I had him until he passed me with 100 to go and I just didn't have it in my legs to speed up. I ended up running 34:08, so kind of close to my PR. I have had a cough all week though and I didn't have very much confidence that I would do well today so I was pleased to still run ok. Lil Warner started two minutes late and clocked himself at 32:50 ish haha. My goal now is to break 33:00 at Des News. Afterwards cooled down with The team and Zac Jacklin. |
