Running and more running

8 miles today with a pretty big group. It was super fun cause it was a recovery day and we took it real slow, about 8 minute miles except the last mile which we dropped to under 7. Connor was commentating the last mile, so Asa pulled out a big finish and won. While running we finished planning Prom and messed around a ton. It was a pretty great run!

Finally did it! Official time of 4:55.32. Felt super good the whole race so it was awesome. Shoutout to thom for pacing me! Afterwards I did the 800 and got 2:16 which isn't super good but I was pretty happy about it. Then I didn't get to finish my miles cause I had to go home teaching and was there for THREE HOURS. I'm not super happy with my companion rn. 

Had to run on my own cause I had piano right after school. It was good, but my legs were pretty sore and tight. 

Speed today since I am not racing tomorrow. I did three sets of four 400s that were supposed to be at two seconds slower than mile pace, mile pace, and then two seconds faster than mile pace. My splits were 71, 73, 72, 72, 70, 67, 71, 70, 67, 69, 69, and 71. Pacing was a little all over the place but I was pretty happy with it since I was supposed to being hitting 76s the first set, 74s the second, and 72s the last and I was faster than that the whole time. Cooled down to 8. 

This was the first time I have hit double digits for a while, so it felt really nice! Also, our day date for prom yesterday was super fun and I'm super pumped for tonight!
