1 mile warmup, then got to the start line. The original plan was just to go around 6:30, 6:00, 5:30, just to get the legs moving a little bit and to have a good time. However, a half mile in to the race it was just me and one other guy (I did go out a little faster than 6:30 but I couldn't help myself lol) so I decided to ditch the plan and go with the flow. First mile was 5:47, then I took the lead and the other guy (his name is Carson btw and he goes to pineview) sat on me for a little bit. Second mile was 5:25. We passed each other back and forth and going into the final .1 I was barely in the lead but he unleashed a pretty crazy kick that I had a hard time matching, so he won. The last mile was 5:27, so pretty consistent. It was a good tempo/race/idk what to call it. It wasn't a race effort but it was a little harder than tempo... Eh whatever. It was a good time. 3 mile cooldown.

Shoutout to my dad and Trenton for running the half
