Wow! It was hot today. I got a nice tan in just a few hours while waiting for my only event, the medley. Coach wanted us to qualify for state now so we wouldn't have to worry about it later, so he put our best guys in it to run it. The meet was going so slow! I felt like I was losing a lot of energy just standing around. I got to watch the 3200 and the 800 this time and it was fun. I saw my buddy Hayden take the 3200 right at the end and saw Josh get a good time in the 800. Finally they got to the medley and we were int the third heat in lane 2. I held the blocks for Mitch. Mitch ran a great 200 and handed off to Presten. I hurried and got the blocks off the tracks and turned around to see Presten flying around the curve way ahead of the next guy. He handed off to Colton in first place. Colton ran a decent 400 and handed to me within a second of first place, 2 teams just ahead of me. I caught up to the other two guys on the backstretch and passed the second guy at the end of the first lap. I came around the turn and just sprinted the last 300. I came in way ahead of the next team to get a state-qualifying time of 3:37, just 2 seconds shy of our school record! Coach got my 800 split time at just under 1:58, which is a 2 second PR! With that time we should be able to take state! I got a blister on my left foot from the friction! After the track meet I came home and was so tired I immediately laid down and took a nap for 2 hours, which felt really good. |
