We decided I've been growing and that is causing a lot of the problems I am encountering.

Did the TEAM warmup and then a 30 minute run. My legs ached and didn't feel great. I was flying on the run though. I was at least 6:30 pace. We were supposed to do 5x200s quick after, but I only did two

Over two mile solid warmup. Good drills. Then just four strides. The hay is in the barn, time to just give it my all this week. My legs started to feel it a little by the end of the warmup

I warmed up inside to try and get things to loosen up. I felt pretty good and was ready to go. The race went out crazy fast. I was like 63-64 through the first 400 and way off the leaders... It got worse from there. I couldn't hold on. I fought really hard but that last 600 was brutal. I ran through the line. I don't know that I've ever hurt like that. EVerything hurt afterwards. I gave it my all, but I gave it my best. Unfortunately it's not what I am capable of. Official time was 4:37.00 so a half second PR, but still not satisfying. I did a long cooldown and then a little stretching.

I warmed up and the legs were feeling sluggish, but that wasn't a problem because sometimes I run really well like that. It was warmer than the day before and windy. I relaxed the first lap and went through in about 72. The problem was I was in the very back and the leaders were already long gone. I was right around 5 minutes through 1600, but my back started to hurt like 1000 meters in. It is so hard to fight when my body does that. I tried but just couldn't do it. I was extremely disappointed to run my slowest time all season..... I didn't even cooldown because I wasn't running the 800 with my back like that and am done with my high school career in competition. I helped out with the meet and cheered people on through the rest.

After the meet was over and Davis did their celebration, Karson and I were sitting at the top of the bleachers taking in the moment. It was pretty crazy. Buhrley didn't make us go to the TEAM meeting after. We were both crying. There are a lot of memories on that track, and I wouldn't trade in any of them. It was tough. Karson being the great guy said something along the lines of, "It'll be all right, we've got bigger and better things ahead of us." That meant the world to me. I couldn't ask for better TEAMmates
