PR... by 3 tenths of second. I was in the very back for the first 1150 meters and then I passed 3 guys so that I wasn't in last. I really had no choice but to stay in the back until I wanted to kick haha. There were 3 columns of runners that I would have had to go around. I raced hard and almost caught one of Davis' top 5 guys in the final 100. The race was pretty good considering the lack of training I have been able to do. After this i wanted to go home but no one was coming for the 4x8 so I stayed and ran it. I was dehydrated and hadn't eaten since 3 or so when the 4x800 came around, I anchored and ran a 2:12 for 810 meters, I got the batton as early as I possibly could. I got the batton at 7:03 so the fate of our team was kind of already sealed. I managed to keep the team out of last place is all that matters haha. Time to train hard for Pineview! My ankle felt fine today, I have mixed feeling on wether to go run my 3200 or just do a 10 mile run or so, or do a 4-6 mile run to make sure my ankle is ok.
